The first follower you attract will be your loyal Cohort.  This Cohort is (hopefully) permanent.  A Cohort is not your slave or lackey, they are a loyal partner who will aid you through thick and thin as long as you treat them well.  As you increase your Leadership score, your Cohort may gain power with you as you level up, and over time you will naturally attract a number of devoted subordinates who assist you.

A Cohort is generally an NPC with class levels, while followers are typically lower level NPCs. See Table: Leadership for what level of Cohort and how many followers you can recruit.

'''Number of Followers by Level:''' You can lead up to the indicated number of characters of each level. Followers are similar to cohorts, except they're generally low-level NPCs. Because they're usually 5 or more levels behind you, they're rarely effective in combat.

Followers don't earn experience and thus don't gain levels. When you gain a new level, consult Table: Leadership to determine if you acquire more followers, some of whom may be higher level than the existing followers. Don't consult the table to see if your Cohort gains levels, however, because Cohorts earn experience on their own.
