If additional Lore Pets are offered from the existing NPC groups I hope the Devs split the Circle of Thorns into 3 separate choices, Behemoth Overlords, Hellfrosts, & the Mages.
It would open up more thematic choices for the powersets we have, Hellfrosts for Ice using characters, Behemoth Overlords for fire, & the human mages could fit a few concepts.
Trolls might be a good lore pet....granted, they might need to be upped in ability to match the 40-50 pets that are mostly Lore types

With the T4 being a Supa troll? And I didn't even think about splitting the CoT up to fill in for different themes, if it were possible that would be cool.|

With the Retro Pack coming out with jet packs I would think at least someone would want goldbrickers or skyraiders to fight along side.
I have a reptilian character that I could see use Snakes as a lore pet if it were an option. Aside from them... if I ever get him to that point I really don't know what I would pick... nothing really... fits.
I'd prefer Judgement to get attention over Lore, as Lore has loads to choose from, but if it ever got another go around, I wouldn't mind seeing some sort of fire-esque creature. I've run into an issue on what kind of Lore pet to take on my Fire brute, since none of them are really thematic. An elemental fire beast, or even just tougher versions of the Fire Imps, would be awesome.
Devouring Earth lore pets, please. Plant- and rock-themed characters don't have much to choose from right now, especially not if they want to not BS a reason for having phantoms/longbow/rularuu/cimerorans/etc in-charcter.

I'd love to have PPD Lore pet sets (both a Paragon and a Praetorian version) for a couple of my crew who have police affiliation. CoT would also be a good choice.
@Brightfires - @Talisander
That chick what plays the bird-things...
I second the notion for more element-themed pets, but also the notion that I'd rather see more Judgement powers at the moment. It would be nice to have a Big Flippin Gun so my soldier types aren't all martial arts masters.
On the topic of Lore though, splitting the CoT into three sects would be fantastic! I would KILL for a Hellfrost Demon tree! I'd also like to see Malta, with the T4 being the Zeus and Hercules robots. Please.

And I'd kill to get PPD Hard Suits Lore Pets to go with my Hard Suit-based blaster. I bought the NPC Costume JUST so I could have the awesome looking PPD Shell armor.
I sit in my zen of not being able to do anything right while simultaniously not being able to do anything wrong. Om. -CuppaJo
It is by caffeine alone that I set my mind in motion. It is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shaking, the shaking becomes a warning. It is by caffeine alone that I set my mind in motion.
The PPD Hardsuit is the only costume power I bought I believe. It's the main one I wanted because it looks so dang awesome. Would love to get it ported to the CC in some fashion.
Devouring Earth I am ashamed I didn't think of. I just created a Plant Control/Empath and... I really like her lol.
I also agree more judgements would be awesome as well. I am assuming they have more in store for us anyway since they've added before. For me Lore was just easier to come up with ideas for.
What do you all think of Cabal Lore pets?
On the subject of Judgements, I want an orbital laser cannon. Yes, I know it doesn't quite make sense for them to operate indoors, but if War Walkers can do it, I don't see why I shouldn't, and my slightly-mad scientist character would love it.

Sooo not only do you want to destroy them physically, you want to destroy them financially as well? Repairing the roofs to some of these layers would be quite expensive especially if you are blasting into some of the underground bases which there are a lot of. That said, yeah it would be a pretty cool power, I have one scientist who could use it. Right now if I get him his lore I will probably go warworks, Robot MM it would fit a bit, for judgement.... toss up between Ion and Void.
5th Column. We already have history-themed lore pets, but why not add one more.
Plus, notice how many of the options we already have are linked to Incarnates or Incarnate-like enemies:
Seers/IDF/Warworks/Clockwork-Emperor Cole obviously
Arachnos-Lord Recluse
Rularuu/Storm Elementals-Rularuu
Longbow-Ms. Liberty, who has a link with Statesman.
Rikti-Honoree/Hero 1
Vanguard-Lady Grey?
Cimerorans-Imperious
And of course we would link 5th Column to Reichsman.
For that matter, I would also like Banished Pantheon
And Circle of Thorns.

TO THE END!Villains are those who dedicate their lives to causing mayhem. Villians are people from the planet Villia!
Okay, folks are talking about CoT lore pets and I'd kind of like that myself, people are also talking about two different branches: the demons and the mages.
I think we can work with something here.
Demons could get a Behemoth Overlord, Hordeling Berserker, or a spectral daemon as a lieutenant pet, Hellfrosts as a boss pet, and Succubus as a support pet.
Mages could have a beefed up elemental thorn casters or a spectral daemon (who are supposed to be the spirits of Oranbega) as the lieutenant pet, three out of four of the arch mages are potential boss pets, and madness mage or a life mage as a support pet.

I got my list.
PPD
Malta (give us a sapper as a Lt or radical)
DE
CoT
Clockwork
Trolls
Battlemaiden's swords.
Mot ravangers/BP.
There is already a dire wolf model in game and I know I'd like A Fire Wolf version as an aoe centric boss pet and a stealthy panther as a stalker esque lt pet, maybe a protective male lion as the buff pet.
First off sorry if this thread exists somewhere already, I couldn't find it. I know we already have a lot of Lore Pet options already but recently I've thought of a few more that would be cool to see.
First off, I would love to get some of Mot's minions under my control. Mainly because they are a better stand in for "demons" than the Rularuu that I am using now on a few characters. Could include the huge Ravager as one of the t4's as we have the Longbow Mech ally.
Secondly with Beast Mastery on the way, why not more animals to coincide with the theme. Lions (Yes I know they are in the Beast Mastery power but I am leaning more toward the male variety), tigers, T4 bears, hawks, eagles, heck a T4 rhino if possible. I'm only thinking of staying within the theme of having animal allies for those who are MMs and those who are not.
Third idea has to deal with elements, such as a fire controller has their imps, well with Lore why not changing the hawk into a phoenix. For ice, why not the snowmen or a mini snow storm which slows and debuffs enemies near by and follows the player, similar in how the thunderstorm follows you.
Fourth idea, something more magical in origin, how about the floating swords from the Apex TF, change it up add in different weapon types or orbs.
Just some ideas I had come to mind to use thematically with characters.
