Does Planar Cohort allow outsiders with class levels?

If it does it might make for some really interesting Thaumaturgist characters.

Yup, that's allowed, since you can get outsiders with class levels from the Planar Ally line. Note that you're still limited to an ECL of character level -2.

Sweet. Hehehe, time to think up some fun cohorts.

Remember that a cohort is an NPC and your control over its exact stats may be limited.

Whoa, I'd completely overlooked that. :smallredface:

Thank you!

Yep. In general, best practice is to build your cohort with the DM's cooperation. As a Planar Ally, your cohort started out as a favored servant of some deity, and DMs are suckers for making cool NPCs to represent their deities.

When given the opportunity I like to go for a succubus/lillend bard. Decently powered, but if used as a party buffer it shouldn't overshadow anyone… except… other bards, I guess. :smalltongue:
