Are there any plans to support the excellent Companion Character creation rules from DMG2?

They're an outstanding short-hand version of PC's to either round out smaller parties or as a literary tool, where they make "guest appearances" as NPCs in the ongoing story of a campaign.

I love both their utility and flavor - please tell me I won't have to build them manually forever! Can they please be added to the Monster Builder, or be a seperate tool someday?

P.S. I posted in the Monster Builder forum too, but it struck me that maybe that wasn't the best place... or maybe it was, I don't know! haha Thanks!

Yes, I hope there will be support for Companion Character creation too!

Having a simplified character sheet and a few power cards for companion characters would be a great way to encourage players to actually pick up the companion character that their unbalanced party needs to survive.

If the rules were added to either the CB or the MB it would be awesome !
