The new S&P is out now and it's got two Conan pieces inside. Apart from a adventure there's an article about canine companions, which got me thinking. I've never travelled through the Hyborian world with a feather-covered or a four-legged or any other similar creature. Maybe I'll give it a try now.
After all, a pet could enrich the story especially when kept alive for several adventures during a single campaign. It could be used for espionage, hunting or protection depending on its size and intelligence. It'd be an additional team member to feed, tend to when wounded and getting over a raging river for example. It could strengthen the ties connecting its human companions and ease the tension while hiding in an enemy territory.
What do you think? Perhaps some of you already did their time with such a pet. If so, what's your experience in that matter?
