[QUOTE="chronoplasm, post: 4718394, member: 73795"] [B]Special Allies[/B] Special Allies are powerful beings that can be summoned by the party, usually by using some kind of artifact. When you summon a special ally, it appears in a space next to whoever summoned it, provided that the space is large enough to contain the creature without squeezing. The creature obeys commands from each member of the party. The creature remains for up to 8 hours or until any party member uses a minor action to dismiss it. If reduced to 0 hit points or fewer. Any party member may spend a move action to have the special ally move up to its speed. Any party member may spend a standard-action to have the special ally attack or defend. Any party member may spend a minor action to have the special ally perform a minor action. When a creature provokes an opportunity attack from your special ally, any party member may spend an immediate interrupt to command the ally to attack. Special allies do not level up, but they do take a share of experience points from each encounter. [B]Buuga, Goblin Scout[/B] Level 5 Special Ally.
