I would say that so long as it could be a mount at level 5 or if it had the potential to be one at level 7 then it should be ok.

The idea of a wolf mount seems awesome. I think of a Norse style Paladin, riding his wolf into battle.

That's sort of what I had in mind. The aim is mount and the two extra levels are inconvenient at best. As far as justifying it in game, my character will be working to actually train it to bear a rider (Acquiring a young-powerful wolf, feeding it excessive foods and exercising it constantly, along with having it bearing weight mid back as it grows). In game and with respect to my character, I have no problem justifying it...

Small sized characters seem to have a broad range of options, I'd hate to think that being a human in game leaves my only alternative to a horse mounted character as a camel mount... neither strikes me as a "Mammoth Lord's" mount.


I was wondering about taking a wolf... does this companion have to be something you ride at level 5 or can it be something your can ride at 7 like a wolf or large cat? Do you even have to be able to ride it? (the text calls it mount but mentions that you may want a more exotic feel... other than a spitting camel what are my options?)

I supposed that I could take the wolf at level 5 and use it as a pack animal (training it to bear a rider it two levels), just wanted to establish whether this was deemed a reasonable endeavor. What think ye?
