Does it have to be a wolf? Options

[Domi]

I like the idea of a guardian animal, but the thing is, wolves as companions are so overused in the fantasy literature it's not even funny. There are wolves in Jordan, Martin, Hobb and gods only know how many other lesser authors. How about say a spotted lion, bear or some other animal instead?

When I decide to test the first pre-alpha version of Mansur, I will also install Azure and will give it a try as well.

A few more points which occur to my mind:

1- I prefer Sharo to be controllable (I like to see a green rather than a blue circle).

2- Will Sharo's powers progress? How long do you expect Sharo to stay alive? If his powers and abilities are fixed, he will be killed sooner or later as the game becomes more and more difficult chapter after chapter. At least, I like to see his hit points and saving throws to improve gradually and also I like to see his claws' enchantments to improve and be considered as +2 weapons at pre-spellhold stage, +3 in chapters 4 to 7, and +4 in TOB.

3- I agree with you that Sharo doesn't need to be a very good fighter. No need to give him good offensive abilities (other than improving the enchantment of his claws).

4- I would also like Sharo to be immune to level drain, because we are not able to see his character sheet and can't be sure if he is level drained (in the heat of the fight against vampires) or not.

I think making different installable versions of Sharo is also a good idea.
