Help me pick a cohort for an 11th lvl warlock!

First Post
Right now I am playing an 11th lvl warlock and my DM let me repick a poor feat choice I made. So in its place I chose the leadership feat. The biggest problem I am having is that I cant decide what I should pick for my cohort. And when I do get an idea I start to flesh out the cohort and I end up second guessing it to the point that I don't want that one anymore. It's quite frustrating.
The reasons I chose the feat is that, as a group, we had this habit of picking up npc's and no one has the feat. Plus it makes sense storywise because my PC just became the head of an order that was decimated and that he was part of at one point.
So if anyone could give me a good idea on a cohort to best compliment a 11th lvl warlock I would be most grateful.

Oh yeah, my leadership score is 18. So I should be getting a 9th lvl cohort.

Get a cohort that can cast both Cure spells and Magic Missile; has a good selection of useful skills and decent combat abilities, and who can buff the entire party in one go. IOW, get a bard. :cool:
 

Since you will be able to make items soon, I would go for cleric/Radiant Servant of Pelor. Nothing like having your own personal suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuper-healer. :)

Mind you, you could also use this as a chance to "beta-test" some new classes, like warblade, swordsage or crusader from Tome of Battle, or other classes that catch your fancy.

[edit: And Bards do not cast magic missle, btw].
 

From a bit of a min/max POV cohorts potentially loose out on a bit of XP becuase of thier level cap. Thus I have gotten in the habit of taking an Artificer. This way some of thos lost XPs go to making items for the party...or just me...

DM: What is your artificer doing?
Me: Why he is artificing!
DM: *groans*
 



Paladin. What better for a character descended from something evil then to have a Paladin cohort!! :D Don't pick a cohort for what they can do for you, get one that will creeate inteeresting circumstances!! :D
