Backgrounds and Themes

Actions [Note: These actually do have their own glossary entry]: While a character is within 20 squares of the fey beast companion, it relies on their guidance. The character takes actions so that the companion can act, and during an encounter, its initiative is the same as the PC.
Standard: For the companion to take a standard action, the PC must use a standard action to command it to do so.
Minor: For the companion to take a minor action, the PC must use a standard action to command it to do so.
Move: Whenever a PC takes a move action, their companion can also take a move action. Alternatively, a PC can use a move action to command the companion to take a move action.
Free: The companion can take a free action without the PC’s taking an action to command it to do so.
Triggered Actions: If a companion’s triggered action is triggered, it can take that action only if the PC takes the same kind of action to command it to do so.
Acting Independently: If a PC is unconscious or more than 20 squares away from the companion, it can act independently, taking a standard action, a move action, or a minor action on its turn. It can also take opportunity actions and free actions, but cannot take immediate actions.
Defenses: The PC level is added to all defenses for every trained fey beast. For instance, with a level 8 character, a Trained Young Owlbear would have AC 21, Fortitude 23, Reflex 19, and Will 23.
Order Adept (DR399:10; Compiled Updates): The level 10 feature grants a +1 Power Bonus to Will, not +2 Power Bonus. Level 5 Feature: The last sentence should be "If you don’t have a spellbook, you can choose wizard utility powers of a particular level or lower when you gain or retrain utility powers of that level."
Sarifal Feywarden (DR405): Missing level 10 utility options:
“When you gain a 10th-level utility power, the following powers are among your options: the wizard powers blur and mirror image, the shaman power spirits of the shadowed moon, and the warlock power warlock’s leap. For the purpose of retraining, these powers follow the same rules as optional theme powers.”
