Thank you!
I usually leave Scratch safe at camp. I am a Wizard, and I conjure elementals for the dangerous adventuring I do.
Right? He and the owlbear cub stay safely at camp, and I come back splattered with the blood and whatever bits I hacked off of the enemies I fought.
He doesn't need to see what I've seen.
Wait. You can get the owlbear cub to stay with you?
Yes, you need to not kill the cub in the cave and then talk to the cub at the goblin camp. The cub will approach you at your camp a few days after you've killed the goblin leaders.
My dog reacts when Scratch appears onscreen. (Sometimes when my druid is a bear, too.)
I try not to use Scratch too much as a result. Also I don't like the yelp of a hurt dog.
I... Had no idea scratch could join your party lol. I thought he just stayed at camp.
He will sniff out buried treasure for you.
You have to have his ball in your inventory and you'll get an option to summon him. He can find buried treasure but is weak in a fight.
