Layonara - View Single Post - Animal Companions....mundane or spiritual?

I'm fairly sure that in layonara, as in PnP, druid and ranger animal companions are animals, not magical beasts, or planar summons.

It is misleading the way NWN handles them though, with the summoning and whatnot. However, your animal companion is always somewhere, whether with you or out sleeping in the woods.

I'm not really sure how we justify animal companions returning after dying, unless its something like their bond to you brings them back through the bindstone or something.

I think of the summoning just as one of those things we have to RP around given the game mechanics.
