So I've been rereading BoVD and the wording on the cancer mages cancerous companion would indicate that it is a separate entity, having its own intelligence and personality and after gaining the ability to generate a tendril of flesh, the ability to physically interact with the world. Would this mean that it is capable of taking class levels?
Cancerous Companion (Ex): At 2nd level, a cancer grows within the cancer mage, forming a large tumor. This cancerous growth gains intelligence and a personality distinct from the cancer mage. The companion and the cancer mage can communicate telepathically. When needed, the cancerous companion uses the cancer mage's scores for saves, ability scores other than Intelligence, and so forth. The cancerous companion gains abilities as the cancer mage gains levels.
also, on a slight tangent, would the cancerous companion have access to the cancer mages sneak attack damage on its touch attacks?
