Hmm...guess no followers then, cannot think of anything for them to be doing.
there is a few things they can do like for example a low level roge / or any character with hide and move silently can by used to fallow or scout targets and a nother example a low level durid or ranger (or any one with knolage nature ) would can easily get a job in the garden of a noble estate after a few days you can get an idea of the gards deployments, shit changes, and they may learn something useful. you have to think like a scoundral. in were you deploy fallowers, or minions. So that they are hidden in plain sight, or the unnoticed.
Well I still have to house and feed those not in the field, which was why I was looking at a shop. Not really one as per the DMGII, but more of a small business that would provide for the cost of food and housing. No gain or loss of gold to me, at all. It was really more for fluff purposes, maybe a safe house,
and just maybe the start of a thief organization with landlord.
Possible strange request, can I trade the Elan's two power points for one point of essentia? It is effectively trading the psionic talent feat for the bonus essentia feat. Could probably explain it by saying Elan with this change are a new anomaly occurring in the conversion process. Yes I know, I could just play an Azurin, but an Elan sounds so much better for this game.
