'''[[:Category:Chocobo|Click here]] for a complete list of all things chocobo-related made by this user.'''

Chocobos are creatures of travel. They are made for moving great distances in small amounts of time. For this reason, chocobos are domesticated, bred, raced, and trained for war.

Chocobos are treated as normal mounts for all purposes of riding and pulling and for the effects, benefits, and purposes of the [[SRD:Handle Animal Skill|handle animal]] and [[SRD:Ride Skill|ride]] skills. As such, chocobos can be purchased as mounts and used as a paladin's ''[[SRD:Paladin#Special Mount|special mount]]''.

A paladin can opt to have a chocobo as his special mount, but he cannot do so until later in his levels. A paladin who desires to have a chocobo as his special mount may only do so when his Paladin level equals or exceeds his chosen chocobo's CR + 1. At this point, the chocobo is treated as a normal mount, but gains the benefits that entails as if the Paladin had Paladin levels equal to his current paladin level, minus his chocobo's CR. For example, a 15th level paladin acquires a dark blue chocobo as his special mount. The chocobo acts normally according to the rules for both chocobos and special mounts, but the benefits the chocobo and paladin gain from the relationship are as if the paladin were level 4 (paladin level 15 - chocobo CR 11).
