So, I have been on a bit of a pokémon Digimon monster training game binge lately, and like anytime I get sucked into a computerized RPG I try to track down a pen and paper game with a similar feel.
But, then I realized that I have never heard of a board game that really took on the monster Raising aspect. I have a simple pokémon board game but in terms of complexity its like comparing Risk to Warhammer.
So I was wondering if any of you lovely folks with much more experience then I have have ever played a tabletop game where you actually had to train, teach, or otherwise manage an unruly beast.
While I am looking for a game system that is actually built around this idea, I love a good story so if you have had entertaining experiences with Summons and pets from other games feel free to post those as well.
