Ok, As with my previous thread, I'm looking for help with my upcoming wizard character. This time I'm looking for animal advice.
Specifically, I've decided to go with the Animal Companion ACF so I need to know what's the best animal companion for an effective 2nd level druid.
Also, I've taken the Obtain Familiar and Improved Familiar feats and chosen an Imp. What are the best alternate forms for the little guy?
The campagin is taking place in a desert, so anything that can't take the heat will possibly be in trouble. (I can cast endure elements on my critters, but if they lose their shared spells, they'll need to take the heat.)
Our group will be guarding varrious "holy sites" from invading "adventurers." Basically, we'll me like some of the mooks from the Indiana Jones and/or Mummy movies. Hopefully, much less "mook-y," though.
Finally, one of the reasons I went with the alternate class feature is to disguise my "wizardy-ness." From enemies. Of course, they'll probably figure it out fairly quickly once I start casting, but If it keeps them from
auto-targeting me on round one, I think it'll be useful. I also have a Twighlight Mithral Chain Shirt (with the cooling ability from Sandstorm,) a Falchion (which I can use thanks to Human Paragon,) and a hat of disguise to hide my nature.
Any suggestions?
EDIT:
Also, no dinosaurs sorry I forgot to mention it. In fact, no dinosaurs allowed in any way, shape, or form.
