I've got a player with a dwarf cavalier that has taken the Order of the Cockatrice. The other PCs kind of like the +3 aid another and the +1 bonus against whomever the dwarf challenges, (group is 2nd level at the moment) but the dwarf hasn't even messed with a mount at this point, because he wants something "different" and he's holding out for an axebeak, especially when he was crushed due to the fact that boars never get large.

At any rate, he's not too disappointed so far, he's just really trying hard to get the most out of the class in some situations, since we're playing Council of Thieves and its a totally city based campaign.

I'm running a Summoner character in a current game. His Eidolon and summon choices are all themed off the concept of his being protected by a pack of infernal canines. Fortunately, since there's a bit of a dearth of canine summons, my GM has allowed me to bring in some alternate, CL equivalent critters with the caveat that if they seem overpowered in comparison we'll have to do some tweaking.

I'll be interested to see what new creatures are "summonable" in the Bestiary 2. I also noticed that there are some really wonky summoned creature allowed in the later 3.5 books. There are celestials in the Monster Manual 4 and 5 that are the same CR, and are two levels apart for what summoning spells you can use to summon them.

(Noticed this since my cleric of Sarenrae has been trying to lean towards "angels" to summon with his summon monster spells)

Would that make you an Angel Summoner?

I just bought the advanced player guide and the new classes alone justified it for me (why do I always end up impulsively buying things after a moment flicking through them in the shop).

I cannot wait to play a goblin alchemist.
