I'm making an Aasimar cavalier for our next game. I'm thinking about hiring a druid to awaken my mount. I had some questions regarding Awaken, Leadership, and Templates.
Would this work the way I'm thinking it would if I took the following feats.
Then had the spell Awaken cast on my mount.
Will my mount still be celestial? Would it be viable to be considered LG so that I don' take the penalty associated with hiring a cohort of a different alignment?
Your making a bit of a mistake as far as rules go. Leadership has no connection to your ac etc. If your asking does leadership allow you to have an awakened animal as a cohort? Yes.
There is only one rules bit which in actual play may be ignored. Once you awaken him he's no longer an ac and thus not celestial. But in normal play there's no rrason to fixate on that since as I said a celestial mount is perfectly fine for an ac.
Yeah, I did that in the wrong order, I apologize.
If I get Celestial Servant, have him awakened, and then gain the Leadership feat, would he stay celestial?
Also, would it be far-fetched for him to be considered Lawful Good?
