Vermin Rules
Vermin are not considered mindless, merely very stupid. They still have an Intelligence of zero, but are not immune to mind-influencing effects. They are capable of learning, but very slowly and in a limited fashion. Vermin with an Intelligence of zero trained using Handle Animal skill can learn a single trick, no more.
This also means that druids and rangers can get vermin as animal companions and summon them with summon nature's ally spells.
