Dear Playground,
I have been wondering for a while now about just what a minion-making character can accomplish. In the past I looked at the necromancer and artificer (with his homunculi and abilities pertaining to golem making). More recently I have heard playgrounders' questions such as "what can skeletons actually do?" (I lost the link to the page titled that).
I still do not understand what a construct, mechanically, is capable of.
Can it use a magic item? (That skill requires charisma, correct?)
Can one take class levels?
Am I capable of enlisting an awakened undead as a follower with Leadership?
Can I mentally command one using Rary's telepathic bond? Does this specifically require a mind?
These questions have grown in the way of my schemes, and I was hoping more experienced players could answer them for me.
Sincerely,
Jack.
