Requirements for a cohort?

[Leopold]

so i see in the new MM 3.5 that they have monsters that have LA's and make them a cohort? What's the requirements for this to happen? What does it need to do or be? Is cohort only for animal companions for druids and rangers or does leadership play into this?

curious minds want to know!

Cohorts are only for the Leadership Feat, not for any other purpose. Wizards get Familiars, Druids & Rangers get Companions, and Paladins get Special Mounts -- none of those are Cohorts.

Leadership is a cool Feat.
