In EQ1, it was a veteran's reward to have a Bristlebane like Jester follow you around for a while and it even casted spells. :p

Anyone have any info on cloak?

That Bristlebane, such a prankster psyching us into thinking we'd get a pet on the third quest like that....... <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />
