I'd like to know what the general idea is about having a pet of somesort that follows the party around, say a Saberwolf that is trained to sniff out chemicals, a winged servitor drone that sits perched on it's master's shoulder and acts as it's master eyes from afar? Or maybe even a Servitor that acts as you're heavy gun or just muel's your gear around for you so all you have to carry is you're weapon and other such nick-nacks.

Thoughts? I havn't seen this sort of thing brought up and could make for interesting gameplay.

The Inquisitor's Handbook has rules for servitors, familiars & servo-skulls, which would seem to fit the bill for your concepts.

Well it's a good thing I'll be getting it in a few days then

Almost everyone in our group has a pet of some sort

(My assassin has a pair of sabrewolves and a bunch of mutant beasts, the scum has a toy lionin, the psyker has a trained hawk and the adept has a bloodwolf)

Our group also has a pair of servitors that haul our luggage and equipment around, as well as a few servitors that tend our shuttle and keep it up.
