Familiar

Presented on these pages are base animal statistics for six

additional familiars beyond those most commonly used
by spellcasters—of course, these statistics can also be
used for normal animals as well. These familiars utilize
all the standard rules for familiars presented on pages
82–83 of the Core Rulebook. Tiny or smaller familiars in
this section use Dexterity to modify Climb and Swim
skill checks.
SMALL FAMILIARS
Small familiars threaten the areas around them like
Small creatures, and can be used to f lank enemies,
though both familiars and their masters are often loath to
use such tactics, as the result is often a dead familiar. Small
familiars are also harder to keep on a master’s person
than Tiny or smaller familiars. Often they require some
form of magic item, like a bag of holding, to remain truly
out of sight.
