This really is a ridiculous thing to be arguing about, and it's all because of the 'cohort' wording Calrond used that results in some weird half-and-half thing we are hashing out and arguing over without really knowing what Cal meant in the first place.<br/><br/>If this was just a bog-standard Succubus, direct from the MM, with Normal Treasure for a CR6 creature, no one would be batting an eye. Having an actual person portray the creature is nothing more complicated the the GM effectively selecting a co-GM for a very specific purpose, hardly 'sneaking a PC in with a back-door method'.<br/><br/>If Zaer wants her as a permanent cohort using the actual rules for cohorts, he should burn a feat on Leadership, and work out a way to excuse the low-level goons (people she zaps with Charm Monster regularly, perhaps). That would mean NPC wealth, Savage Species character progression, PC or Elite Progression stat generation, the whole shebang.<br/><br/>Otherwise, she should be treated as per the RAW for Planar Binding; obeying and serving him in all tasks would be an open-ended job, so it'd cap at a duration of 1 day per caster level. Having her True Name would be worth a fat bonus on his Charisma check to negotiate the service, but 'decades of service' would likely be an unreasonable demand and never agreed to by the spell.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=189056.msg10077612#msg10077612">Quote from: MistressVoluptas on 04-06-2014, 17:03:05</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">I didn't mean it so negatively xD I'm just confused what to put is all.

As Joel says, wrangling gamers is like herding cats, or displacer beasts. (http://www.weregeek.com/2014/06/03/)
