animal companion question

[✚ gokyuu]

do animal companions grow over time, and if they do, how does it work exactly?

They can, but it's left up to the owner's discretion. If your character has been rping with an animal for a long time you might see an Akamaru-esque progression. If you want the animal to stay the same size, that's fine too.

ok, so if it grows, (say from medium to large), then i'll have to learn the animal control/understanding techniques of the next rank up in order to rp with it?

and thanks for answering

[Okami]

You don't have to learn the next rank of control jutsu. You still have the bond with the animal, it was just easier to do back it was a puppy.
