Unofficial rules compendium

Rules

• Most aspects of your Animal Companion are based on your character level.
• Any alignment. Druids in the wild are generally chaotic, but some consider the system of the world to be perfection.
• A druid can use the Wild Empathy ability on Plant and Vermin. This does not so much indicate that the druid charms these unintelligent creatures; rather the ranger knows how to act in order not to trigger their attack response and trigger other, social responses instead. Consider most plants and vermin to have an initial attitude of hostile.

Variants

A common theme here is to reduce the reliance of a sagelike knowledge of the monster books.

Druidic Adept Monklike and rangerlike abilities at the cost of wildshape.
