I've got a CG sorcerer player and he has taken the leadership feat. He wants to create a rogue/cleric of Mask as a cohort. Mask is a NE deity and he needs to have his cohort within one step of the deity according to the PHB, but I'm not 100% sure how many alignment steps his cohort can be from the PC. He is thinking possibly CN for the cohort, but isn't that more than 1 step away from the deity? "I" think so, but wanted to get other peoples advice, ie. rules lawyers.

Thanks in advance.

I personally would rule that the cohort, NOT the god must be within one alignment step....as in

Lawful Good
Neutral Good
Chaotic Good

.........In this case, the "one-step rule" would out rule out the use of a CN cleric/rogue as the cohort...but as a DM I have to say that rules are meant to be broken, and if the PC truly believes that Mask would not mind having a CG sorceror around, then I would see no reason not to have them together....just make sure that your sorceror watches his back......

lawyers you say, well that wouldn't count me in. I seem to only brake laws not knowing them =)
