What are these DM "pets" I keep hearing about?

[jelricle]

Hey everybody,
I keep stumbling on vague comments about "pets" from DMs.  Is this some uber rare unlock, like the rare races?  I couldn't find anything on the wiki.

(I am a druid shifter whose companion is woefully weak, now, but I like role playing with a pet, so would not mind taking on a quest to get a decent one)

You can donate money to get one. They previously have been rewarded for Pillars events I think?

DM'S pet are speical gift from Funky and have nothing to do with donations at least for what i know.

Like for DM they give time to help players in need of assistance then it's a way to thanks them for them free investment to help HG

It’s definitely something you can get via donation. Funky has posted this himself, recently.

As to what they are, it is effectively a pre-Immortal pet to help with the slog up through the Epic levels.

One can do a real number on the East Road Bandits as an example.
