Say if I'm a paladin can I get a demon cohort?

[QUOTE="Jürgen Hubert, post: 3205230, member: 7177"] As always, it depends on the particular cosmology of your campaign. If demons in your campaign are part of a cosmic, [i]irredeemable[/i] evil, then the answer is obviously no. If demons are fallen angels of sorts whose spark of divinity and goodness has not been irrevocably lost, then it might be possible to redeem a demon, convert her to lawful good, and have her as a cohort. Perhaps all outsiders are also fairly malleable in spirit and attitude. Perhaps any outsider who spends too much time in the Abyss or the local equivalent becomes a demon sooner or later. And perhaps an outsider who spends enough time in the "heavenly planes" becomes good-aligned after a time. Stranger cosmologies exist. If you are a player, ask your DM about the cosmology. If you are the DM, work out the cosmology for yourself. By the way, why does it always have to be a redeemed [i]succubus[/i] and not, say, a nalfeshnee? Well, as if I didn't know... :p [/QUOTE]
