He'd have to be skinny though, for weight reasons. Also, he'd be lighter without any legs. His lack of legs could be why he's on my back all the time. He'd need both arms for spellcasting, unfortunately. How would the rules work when people attack him? It wouldn't make sense for him to get dex, since he's immobile, but since my character would be evading attacks he might be able to use my dex. I think he'd be granted full cover to enemies in front of me by my body too. Help me optimize a back mounted bard!
