Sorry, someone had to say it...

You must say its name with a fake echo-chamber-y voice.

Celestial Badgers Saved My Buddy's Life

[tenzil.livejournal.com]

There was an avalanche. He sledded at least 1/3 of the way down it on his oversized tower shield. But then he was buried in twenty feet of snow.

Who saved him?

MY CELESTIAL FUCKING BADGER, THAT'S WHO.

Bastard.

Also they are excellent at flanking the giant for one round.

Hey, I summoned a celestial badger in your Al Qadim game. He was...helpful...for one round.

Why does the celestial badger have large spikes on its back?

Ah, that makes sense. However, at the risk of sounding like a nit-picker, how would a giant be realistically threatened by a badger? It would seem the flanking rules break in this case, at least from the point of view of realism. The digging utility is good though.

*boggles* That was my first rules-related criticism I've ever posted anywhere. I feel my Geek Score^TM increasing!

Hey, there's still fangs and claws on your rear section. And a holy aura.

Sure, it's one turn of "Get away from me!" Get away!"

You still shouldn't Summon a Monster until 5th level, anyway.

[thebitterguy]

Yeah, but did it have to be YOU?

[thebitterguy]

He was not. However, if you HAD used him to flank the pseudo-hydra, that would have been very useful.

Hmm. Must think tactically from now on.

Hmm. Must think tactically from now on.

That's assuming we ever play again. Why do they bother with summoning spells at that low of a level?

[thebitterguy]

Optimism, I suppose. And rescuing buried adventurers.
