arimil4ever 07-24-06, 03:03 PM	Can someone help me figure out the rules for animal enlargement with an animal companion for a druid? the animal is a dire badger with 3 hd right now when i level to 6 it will have 5hd which in the book says it goes from medium to large animal however the dm and i want to go by the book on this one and we need to know if the druid bonus's stack with the enlargeing stats in the back of the mm. i would appreciate any info

arimil4ever 07-24-06, 03:23 PM	ok so just throw out the advancing animals in the back then they will always be medium then? right?
Seerow 07-24-06, 03:27 PM	Correct. Though said Animal Companion has a powerful ally in his master the Druid. Animal Growth, a fourth level spell, will let your animal companion be enlarged. They will always be their base size naturally though.
