A good third is rarys telepathic bond if it can understand commands, or you need to know its condition from afar. Resistance isnt really worth it, but feel free, to. And magic fang is a nice toutch if it will stack!__________________The creautres to choose from is a little harder, since I dont take companions too often, though I would like toI'd stop worrying about peasants, a simple illusion cast around the most beastly creature wont be broken in city circumstances by a regular peasant - If you run into a mage with something too odd you may have to explain yourselfMy number one choice, is an owlbear, I don't know why I love them so much, but I do, their strong fast and powerful, fit it with some enchantments and you have something I wouldnt want to fight against. Its scary factor may put you off using this one, even with illusions its pretty big.It is large, but you can shrink it with spells if need be, one of my top choices, the hippogriff, strong and trustworthy creatures.In a little less magic creature sense we have the choices of most of the large cats, Lions are a fairly good choice along with tigers. If people are to scared, I turn you back to illusions.I dont know how you feel about snakes, but there pretty worth while, if better suited to a rogue.________________________________________If you want to make them a little more magical, giving it elemental or celestial traits isnt a necesarily a bad idea, but if I was you id ask for something more unique or interesting that suits the region you venture too.Find a creature that can run further on open plainsUse spider climb as it is in a rocky regionHas minor energy resistance due to the temperature Paralyzing saliva (And an extending tongue)- probably a jungle creature Can change size - magical creatureGood at swimming, or even grows fins in a plain that suffers floodsImproved jumping - mountain regionspit attacks and breath weapons - Magical creaturePsionic powers - Probably dealing with an intelligent creature hereInvisibility - Magical hunterTeleport - Magical creatureAny kind of enhanced senses - hunterWhile all those are good on their own, what if they where bread for a purposeMagician hunterSpell resistance (unfortunatly it would likly be immune to enchantments)Reduce spells per day upon hitting an opponents (feed on it maybe)Generate an antimagic field (Per day most likly)Detect magicMaybe see invisibilityDragon hunter (This would be very strong, possibly too much so)Immune (or highly resistant) to fear effectsDR to dragon breath, evasion or improved evasionDragon bane teeth/clawsSpecialised enemy is a dragonProbably need to have incredible flight speeds or teleport as a move action to keep up+10 to spot and listen checks on finding a dragon+4 on any resistance check against a dragonCombat expertLow DR/magic (between 1-5)Might give it metalic skin, combine it with dex maybe natural armour +6 or +8Dex bonus +2 or +4Getting its AC between 18 and 22Adamantine equivalent teethAttacks count as touch attacks maybe (Come up with some other armour bypass basicaly)Could give it tumble, but it'd be iffyHunterSee invisibilityDetect lifeDetect unlifeBlind senseMove at about 120 feet per roundLow attack power 1d3/1d4 per claw at -2 and 1d6 bite at +0Improved scent</blockquote>
