Taming the Beast

Perhaps you'd like a creature that possesses little more than brute strength. The ice claw bear is an excellent companion for a fledgling hunter like yourself, and can be found east of Kharanos. Here is the taming rod; try this animal as a pet and see if ya like it!

When you return, I'll give ya the skills you will need to tame an animal of your choosing; this creature will face the challenges you face, and gain experience alongside you. I will also show you how to call it and dismiss it as ya like.

Have you tamed the ice claw bear yet?

Here you are, <name>. I will now give ya the power to tame a beast, as well as call it and dismiss it as you please.

Find yerself a good, loyal pet, and enjoy the hunt!
