I am making a drake pet for my 7 year old son, who is playing a dragonborn Avenging Paladin. I'm giving him some lattitude on what it does and trying to balance it. Base Stats STR 16 CON 16 DEX 14 INT 3 (animal) WIS 14 CHA 14 At will attack Bite (D10) + STR (proficiency 3 as 2h sword) Racial attribute bonuses +2 STR CON (included) Racial skill bonuses +2 Endurance, Perception Skills - Acrobatics, Athletics, Endurance, Perception Natural Scale armor (it's a drake) Equipment advances at L6, 11, 16, 21, 26, 30 +1/advance vicious weapon +1/advance armor bonus (and add scale masterwork jumps at 21 and 30) +1 item bonus to skills with armor advances Racial Abilities As Dragonborn, swap Trance (Eladrin) for Breath Great Leap (as Rogue Utility 2) Powers Striker bonus +3 damage per tier if within 3 squares of master Matching rolls - pet may use master's roll for any physical skill if they are together (so if toon jumps over ledge, pet will not drag down story, etc.) What I want is a good poison bite as an encounter power - I plan to have only 1 Encounter Power and 1 Daily Power that is useable up to 4 times (Paragon + 3) eventually Daily Power Big Bite STR vs AC martial, reliable Hit [3w] + STR, target is knocked prone if size large or smaller Miss 1/2 damage Change damage to 4w at 11, 5w at 21, and 6w at 30 Encounter Power Poison Bite martial, interrupt, STR vs Fortitude Trigger - successful hit Hit:Target takes 5 poison immediately + 5 ongoing (save ends) Miss: Target takes 5 poison immediately and 0 ongoing Is this balanced for the heroic tier? What should the values be at each tier? Thanks.
