I feel the need to ask, why is your mount being unable to speak a problem? What end goal are you trying to get to that requires a speaking Griffon?

Remember a ton of communication can still be done with yes no questions, which your griffon should be able to respond to with simple head shaking or nodding or clawing the ground a certain number of times.

These sorts of questions always make me smile. Lol.

It's a horse... in your case a Griffon... what meaningful conversations is your character missing out on by not being able to converse with their horse?

Maybe you can build a rapport with her? Possibly get to know her? Oh, you make her laugh? Now we have little half-Griffon abominations flying about...

There is always the Bonded Mind teamwork feat, if you are actually trying to gain any sort of strategic or tactical edge through communicating with your horse.

To explain, I worked with the gm to make the griffon tie into the plot, thus the griffon is another story important "npc".

Give it a skill point in linguistics to pick up sign language maybe?

GM ruled against it and besides griffons can understand common but not speak it.

Ring of Eloquence?

Griffons are Quadruped (claws/paws) thus they have no ring slot.

To explain, My Paladin is going the with mount as his bond AND has gotten Monstrous Mount for a griffon animal companion mount. This in turn means the griffon is a magical beast instead of an animal.
The griffon can understand common but there is a problem. The griffon can't speak.
It being a magical beast means that all spells and items that can cause an animal to speak just went out the window. As of now telepathic bond seems like the best solution but it would require the work of a mage whom can make it permanent and that someone needs to be someone my character can trust.

Is there another RAW legal means of having mount and rider be able to talk despite the mount being a magical beast?

Greetings !
I want to make a possible Hellknight for my upcoming Hell's Vengeance AP.
I've been doing some thinking and decided to make an intimidate build for such a character.

I viewed some of the disciplines when I came to a slight problem.

"When applicable, the save DC to resist a discipline’s effect is equal to DC 10 + the Hell Knight’s level + his Charisma modifier. The Hell Knight can use any one discipline a number of times per day equal to the total number of disciplines he has access to, so at 3rd level he can use his discipline once per day"

I wanted to pick the powerful Fearsomeness discipline but now I'm not too sure.

How does it work ? does it work for any intimidation or only 1-3 times per day ?

I also realized that some other disciplines have the same problem not being sure if they work always or daily.

Can anyone shed some light on this ?
