This is pretty funny - the software uncapitalized it the first time...

I always thought it was Wilderninja.

No, it was "dual-wielding wildernazi" because of, well, the TWF stuff, and the favored enemies.

Hey, Wizards can do that too.
"Celestial Badger, I choose you!"
"Fiendish Hawk, I choose you!"

Yep, but that's a summoning spell. It's accepted. Beside, bards and clerics and druids can do that, too (well, minus the fiendish/celestial templates for druids).

Whereas in 3e, the paladin's mount was constantly there. In 3.5., it was replaced by a summonable mount. There's workarounds -- you can turn the horse summoning into something like Gandalf calling Shadowfax, and the mount arriving from somewhere, rather than appearing in a puff of smoke; but still it feels weird.

This thread is for people to list all the (usually inaccurate or exaggerated) words they've heard over the years that have been used to describe 3e (and 3e players) by its detractors.

Pokemount
Pokepaladin
Wilderrogue

Those three are considered to "demean 3e and 3e players"?

Sounds like some people have an oversensitivity problem...

Stupid poke-druids, bards, wizards, clerics, and sorcerers.

That's how I plan on running it... if anyone ever plays a paladin.

Pokemount

More properly that's: Pokémount.
