Bonded Animal and Paladins


Rules Questions


Simple question: can the Paladin communicate with the animal? For instance: "Go ahead and scout for creatures up ahead."


As long as you speak in a language that the bonded animal understands (since the bonded animal has an Int of 6, it understands at least one language, and can take the Linguistics skill to learn others).

Sczarni

You still need to make Handle Animal checks.

"Go ahead and scout for creatures" would likely be equivalent to the "seek" trick.

Luckily for Paladins, having an Animal Companion with an Intelligence of 6 means it knows almost every trick out there.
