Message: <blockquote data-quote="Endur" data-source="post: 5851621" data-attributes="member: 3346">The Deck of Many Things is artifact level magic, more powerful than wishes and miracles.  I treat the 4th level fighter as a loyal recruit of the PC.  If adventuring with the party, the fighter would be treated like a cohort without needing the leadership feat.One Druid is asking for the animal compaion to become an awakened companion fighter (without the leadership feat), the other is asking to raise the druid level by 4 for animal companion only.  I would ask each druid if they could live with the other PCs request.  If so, I'd pick one interpretation that would apply to both.  Complications for the +4 druid level: could be problematic over the course of the druid's career if it applied to successive animal companions.  I might limit this Buff to the current animal companion (i.e. current animal gets more powerful, but if the current animal dies, the new animal is back at the normal level).Complications for Awakened Animal Companion: Will they have both the awakened animal compaion and a regular animal compaion?  Will this awakened animal companion have both the 2 awakened hit dice and 4 fighter hit dice in addition to regular hit dice?  I'd be willing to give them awakened animal companions (as awakened animal companions are very cool), but I'd say no to the four fighter levels and no to having both the awakened animal companion and the regular animal companion unless they also take the leadership feat.You have to be careful with either request, as both requests could end up being more powerful than gaining a 4th level fighter depending on how you interpret them.  That said, a free 4th level fighter cohort can also be very useful in some campaigns.</blockquote>
