Owlbear help

[Bagpuss]

I have my character planned out for several levels, now I'm at a point where I think I might change that so that I can have an owlbear pet/companion.

I had the same sort of idea, but it can't be a 'companion' in the druid or ranger sense as it is a magical beast, not an animal. Then the other player's realised what we could get for selling it, and so there wasn't much option in keeping it as we all needed the money.
