[QUOTE="Cap'n Kobold, post: 9452327, member: 6802951"] I take it that you want to be a Beast Mastery Ranger who rides their companion? Rather than just having a horse, or summoning a steed? In D&D 2024, humans can be Small size. So you could ride your normal companion. Ask your DM to adjust the statblock of the Beast of the Land to make it Large size, in exchange for removing the climb speed perhaps. And/or sacrificing a spell slot of a certain level perhaps? The Enlarge/Reduce spell would allow you to enlarge your beast to Large, so you could ride it, but it is of limited duration. Might work for a "battle transformation", but it is awkward to use in combat. Also, I don't think that its on the Ranger list, and I don't think that you can pick it up with a feat. Alternatively, a dex-based Ancients Paladin has access to the summon steeds spells and very similar flavour to a Ranger. [/QUOTE]
