A week of patient downtime forges a lasting bond with a wild animal, letting it fight alongside its bonder as a minion once trust takes hold.
Familiarity with animals, plants, and primal magic lets a character direct a beast's behavior or recognize primal spellcraft at work.

During times of war, armies might venture far from the seats of government that send them out or get separated from their commanders by the terrain. Thanks to your riding skill and affinity with the animals that serve as mounts, you were tasked with carrying reports of an ongoing war from one place to another. Speed was of utmost importance, and sometimes you would need to spend days in the saddle.
