Dear god there are so many things to consider.
So I'm in the process of building a ringleader, and I'm stuck at building my Cast of Performers. Rather than having typical Humanoids do cool tricks, I was planning on having more of a Ripley's Believe Or Not dealio.
The problem is deciding on what attracts people the most. Oddities Welcome!

I have the following number of slots open for suggestion via Leadership:
32 1st levels
6 2nd levels
3 3rd levels
2 4th levels
1 5th levels
0 6th levels (Already taken by a Brass Dragon)

NOTICE: They have to fit into ECL, not just Hit Dice.
NOTICE: Multiple beings can be placed into one category, or even raised Hit Dice.

No idea about what the ECL of this would be, but what about the freakish two headed-cyclops with two eyes on each head(Or one has two eyes and the other has none)?

What about a two headed Cyclops with only one head with two eyes?

You're starting to peek behind the curtain. Glance away, lest your innocence be forever lost.

I realized a mistake and offer a new perspective. Rather than Ripley's, think along the lines of Barnum & Bailey's.
