Hiya, first thread here. Anyways, I was looking at Eberron for the first time and noticed something awesome. Symbionts. There is hardly anything about them on the net but they are basically magical items you dont need slots for and are great utility gadgets. For example, you are blinded. Your symbiont can probably still see and can communicate telepathically and presumably give you a mental picture of whats going on. Most also give free darkvision and some of their buffs are just ridiculous.
For example: Shadow sibling gives you 50% miss chance as an immeadiate action as many times as your CON bonus. Potentially life-saving for frontliners.
Most symbionts also have ridiculous hide bonuses at low levels and combined with their dakvision, are better scouts than PCs.
For lols, you can even use them for diversions since diminuitive size makes em near untouchable at low levels and some can fly or go incorporeal.
So, let's talk about how awesome they are, see how many uses you can get outta these little guys and if you want make up your own.
Also, assuming I can only have 1, which one would be best for a gish?
