If you want a different class, just ask(I know all classes for 3.5).

"We did that once, actually," Hyperion volunteers. "We were going to a meeting of commanders, very hush hush, and there had just been a series of attacks by traitors." He shakes his head. "Still though, Waterdhavian social holiday dances and Tethyrian military meetings are very different cultures. I'm sure they won't." Oh, and also, I took the Leadership feat for level 6, so Hyperion has one level 4 cohort and 5 level 1 followers hanging on his every word, hah. He's the one that has to equip them, so.. Cohort: Mstwk Leather/Mstwk Longsword Follower 1: Scimitar/Studded Leather Follower 2: Scimitar/Studded Leather Follower 3: Scimitar/Studded Leather Follower 4: Mstwk Leather/Longbow Follower 5: Studded Leather/Longbow
"Of course they are," Hyperion says, nodding sincerely. "Oh! You know, I forgot to introduce you." The cohort, a young half elf female, steps forward. "This is Alhessendria Moonbeam, cleric of Ilmater, and an initiate Healer of the Ilmatari. Before becoming a full Healer, she decided she wanted to get some field experience, but due to her vows of pacifism, she would need companions on her forays into the darkness. I was selected for that honor, for some reason or another." Hyperion smiles a little too brightly and confidently.
I realized she wouldn't need a mace thanks to that vow of pacifism.
"Pleased to make your acquaintance." The Healer, Alhessendria(henceforth called Alhess or Al) says. E: *long pause* "You can just call me Alhess." xP Tactful accidental burn ftw! "In a way. The others are following me of their own volition, and of course as their new leader I don't want to see them harmed. And Miss Moonbeam is actually not so far departed from us as far as skill goes. Are we leaving now?"
