If you wanted it just for flavor (and didn't want the hassle of worrying about a dog), that's fine. He certainly wouldn't take the dog dungeon crawling, but the dog would be there (and jump in) if he got jumped in "civilian life."My heart's not set on the anti-hero thing (Knight of the Chalice is pretty spiffy instead). There are some subtle hooks in there that would eventually disconnect him from the side of good, theoretically, or perhaps not.Third level is a ways off, but how do you feel about the Ancestral Weapon feat? It's in BoED, so I know that's a strike against it with many <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />, but it looks pretty balanced -- it allows a non-spellcasting character to essentially buy upgrades for a single weapon at approximately the same price as the DMG magic item cost tables. Arak would pick up a masterwork greatsword before level 3 (purchased, of course) that would just happen to be his uncle's greatsword. Then, from level 3 on, he'd pour money into it and it would slowly turn magical and improve over time. I don't know if the Shackled City campaign has that sort of money floating around or is built to accomodate players taking a hand in their own magical item creation. If it's a no-go, that's cool, I just thought it was a flavorful feat.</blockquote>
