In a coming patch (possibly the upcoming one, possibly the one after), several classes will receive updates to their companion features.
- Paladins and blackguards will receive their pnp-appropriate companions: the paladin mount/warhorse or warpony, and the blackguard fiendish servant. These companions are somewhere between a familiar and an animal companion. They are stronger than a familiar, and can be commanded to attack foes, but are not quite as strong as an animal companion. At this time, these horses cannot be ridden. They may offer horse storage.
- Classes with cohorts (eg thaumaturge, dreadmaster, and pale master) will be able to name their cohorts.
- Classes with animal companions will be able to change their chosen companion, similar to changing a familiar. In addition, their statistics will be aligned closer with pnp, similar to the recent familiar rework.

And here I thought I was imagining things. Knew I saw this somewhere. Was it ever implemented? I can't find a way to rename my cohort so my guess is it wasn't.

Great news!
Beside the name change, will the Thaumaturge's summon get any modification in the future? Maybe a special feat to call upon the cohort?
