okay, now I'm leaning towards the time penalty (Or perhaps a reduced effective caster level for determining the full level equivilent of the cohort? Something like a cumulative -1 each refusal, and if it brings the caster level down too low, the cohort just stops coming? The Caster would have to pay back the cohort for all the times that he helped but wasn't helped in return in order to reduce the penalty?)
I was thinking with the original 200 that we had proposed...
A 20th level character with, lets say 200,000 experience, with a maxed level Planar Cohort (CR=14, Elder Elemental w/ 3 levels fighter) could stand to lose around... oh, say 5400 experience per single failed request. After four such requests, he would drop a character level.
Looks good to me, especially since the above was the worst case I could find.
Good stuff.
