Animal Companion

Animal Companions are powerful creatures that follow the call of nature, and serve alongside as friends and allies.

All animals have the same Animal Traits, having a basic melee attack, and one bonus trait from the list below. They also get two Traits from the Player Trait List that can make some level of sense when applied to animals. Animal Companions are exceptionally unique and should be different than a standard of their kind, but they should not have access to magic, or other Adventurer-specific abilities. Your Game Master has the final say on whether a Trait is appropriate or not
