11-29-05, 09:38 PM Hello I am a fairly new DM,
and I am currently startinga campaign soon, I prefer knowing what characters aspire to be so i can make a good story for them. Now one PC, who comes up with very unique chars. now has the desire to be a crazed CE assassin, with an army of animals(like rodents, squirrles, rats, ect ect)....*gives moment to let that sink in*

Now I figured it was possible if you had handle animal, leadership, and some fway to communicate with animals. Correct me if I am wrong, or any advice on how to treat this case. I dont want to say just no because I am not sure on the rules, because that may take away from his enjoyment of the game. Thank you for any advice...and man I need sane PCs.....

He might need some feats to have access to Vermin and Aberrations as animal companions (Lords of Madness has the Aberration one, I forget which book has the feat for Vermin companion, but I don't think it has any prerequisites, just the list of things that can become companions and what their adjustments are).
