📋 About This Mod

Makes all summonable creatures (Ranger's, Familiars, Undead, Elementals, etc.) have the Help Action, as in DnD 5E. Also adds the missing Hide Action to Animate Dead summons.

That's it. This doesn't edit the Help Action itself in any way whatsoever and is compatible with mods that do.
