I'd like to see a way to have a pet 'befriend list' so you could teach it not to growl at a certain amount of people (10, 20 etc) for warm and snap at others, just like we have, instead of growling everyone other than my guest.

Does it need its own list? Just let it reference the owner's.

Ooo that'd be great--especially if someone I had set to cold walked in the room and my spider pounced and poisoned them.

Make it happen.

Foraged weapons are heavier and less effective than storebought weapons but have the advantage of being free if you have the skill and knowledge of where to find them. Personally, I train foraging on longswords right now. --Arcelebor

Good idea! No idea how doable it is, but it would definitely be neat to have adaptable pets like that!

Yeah, personally, I'm embarrassed when my dog growls at anyone who enters my house. I'd like to think he's more hospitable than that. I really like this idea. :-D

I would really like it if I could set my cat's demeanor. Alternately, it would be nice if the cat just copied my demeanor and befriend list. I would like people I have listed as warm to be able to pet the cat and people I have listed as cold should be clawed or something until they leave, assuming they had the nerve to try to come into my home to start with.

I don't know - I kinda like pets to have a personality of their own. Now, I think it is reasonable that you could buy a pet with a specific personallity, but I don't think you should be able to change it or have it set off your own PC settings - my dad's old cat hated me and I am pretty darn sure my dad doesn't. : D I don't currently have a pet, but if I got one, I would want an old orange tomcat that hated just about everyone.

There are just not that many pets to choose from. Though I agree, it would be nice to be able to choose its personality. However, setting it to match my demeanor might be more feasible. I would just like it if all pets of a certain description were not exactly the same pet.

I like the idea of being able to set the demeanor of your house pet. Thing about the befriend list though, in my case my dog with 'friendly eyes' growls at all my chars on the homeowners acct.. I would rather not have to add all their names to her befriend list. In my oppinion a dog with 'friendly eyes' should be friendly not growl constantly (the growls are random messages, not messages from trying to interact with the dog).

He's just playing with them! :D

I agree, though. You should be able to set a "general" demeanor--even if that means your dog won't exactly be a great guard dog.

Demeanor would be nice.

Alternately, I would like to be able to select a personality for my pet like I can select the scent for my house.
