Creature Companions

The solitude of space can prove tough to bear for even the most hardened soloist. It’s no wonder, then, that across the entire galaxy, members of countless species take up creature companions ranging from show pets to emotional support animals to combat-ready mounts. Whether such a pairing is born of cultural tradition, lucky happenstance, or even reluctant necessity, few bonds are stronger.

Special Abilities

Horrific Shriek (Su) Every 1d4 rounds, a bhanda can shriek as a standard action. All creatures within 30 feet except for you must succeed at a Will saving throw (DC = 10 + half the bhanda’s level + the bhanda’s Charisma modifier) or gain the shaken condition for 1 round. Creatures that fail their saving throw against a bhanda’s horrific shriek can’t be affected by that bhanda’s horrific shriek for 24 hours.
Unnerving Gaze (Su) As long as your bhanda is adjacent to you, you gain a +2 circumstance bonus to Intimidate checks against creatures within 30 ft. that can see your bhanda, and the DC of any spell you cast with the fear descriptor increases by 1.
