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

Death Dive (Ex) If your thakasa companion is flying at the start of your turn, it can take the charge full action using its fly speed, provided that at least 10 feet of its movement is in a downward direction.

Midair Rescue (Ex) If you fall off your thakasa companion while at least 30 feet above the ground, it automatically dives to catch you as a reaction, if able. If it catches you, you are mounted but gain the prone condition. You can use the stand up move action to lose the prone condition.
