    @Tiggis no one wants your personal attacks, people are here discussing ideas and trying to have productive conversations.

    @OP The problem is going to be the "why" part. Will playing as a monster help develop your character, will it effectively be a 2nd character, or will it erase all efforts after turning off that mode?

    Also, I'd be all for some rules imposed on each monster type, not sure how to go about it though. I mean, rules that promote the players acting more along the lines of how that mob would if it was handled by the AI. Maybe if you are playing a goblin and you are part of a group of NPC goblins. The leader of your group is a goblin shaman (NPC) and it gives you orders that you must follow.

    Sounds like you are looking for a necromancer skill. They may have it.

    Seems is plenty of summonable stuff in the magic info.
    'summon ghoul' in Death magic
    'summon phoenix' in Sun magic
    'summon will o wisp' in Moon magic
    'summon earth elemental' in Earth magic
    'summon air elemental' in Air magic
    'summon water elemental' AND 'summon ice elemental' in Water magic
    'summon fire elemental' in Fire magic
    'summon demon' in Chaos magic

    add 'taming' and we will have a lot of possible combat pets.
