I’m gonna have to go with a miniature elephant, maybe the size of a Labrador.
Zebra or giraffe. Not to ride, just to go on walks with.
A pet kangaroo would be cool
Opossums.
Tall horse 🦒
Stupid long horse, but yeah that would be a sick
I always thought of them as necky camels more than horses
Parrots can be extremely intelligent, but are still dinosaurs.
Kind of surprised that I’m not seeing honey badger or wolverine or tasmanian devil.
Miniature gm giraffe, about waist height. Cantering about with its tiny blue tongue. I love that little freak.
Pallas cats look very soft, I’d love to be able to cuddle one
manul
Manul!
Capybara
Straight up, chill coconut,
x2 for the chillest little dudes
Yeah, bears for sure. Little teacup-size pet bears.
Having a pet sloth would be pretty cool
It will be a long process.
Red Panda. I want to steal one from the zoo every time I go.
Assuming their domesticated enough to listen to my commands and ignore their pray drive, on like a magical level, Tiger. Hands down. I would go to the Renaissance Fair with them and commission a blacksmith to forge armor for them. I would ride it into battle whenever necessary.
Edit: I was also assuming no one else has a magically domestic animal. If everyone in this thread also has one, I’ll choose Rhinoceros
I just want to be ready, in case everyone else chooses violence.
If, all of a sudden, there were a handful of people that had a magical connection with an otherwise dangerous animal; I imagine, either those people would fight each other or team up against someone with a robot army. Either way, a tiger would have a lot of weak points, even with armor.
You would need at least an entire hive, the rules state only one animal. But if you got a Queen, you probably could control an entire hive🤔 you’ve given me something to think about for sure
With those conditions I would pick a bear/panda or platypus respectively.
I’m pretty sure a Rhino would wreck any kind of bear, the only animal I think i would need to worry about is an elephant, would a platypus be able to penetrate a rhino’s skin?
Hear me out: a bear is useful, fuzzy and could probably squeeze through doors.
A platypus is just perfect, I don’t need it to have combat proweses when I can play with a platypus instead of fighting.
Being the only one with a bear would of course make fighting an option but still I wouldn’t want it to get hurt.
I like and really appreciate how you think. I definitely wouldn’t attack you with my Rhino, but I, personally, will not pick something that would leave me vulnerable against someone else who might. I hope you and your platypus-bear live in harmony🙏
Edit: but just so you know, a platypus wouldn’t leave you completely vulnerable, because they do have poisonous barbs. I’m not sure how effective those barbs are against large animals or humans, but I’m sure it would at least be a good deterrent
