So, I'm going to be playing a Sea Singer Bard in a Skull and Shackles Campaign and I scoured the rulebooks and various internet sources, but couldn't find a suitable answer, so I'll ask it here.
Sea Singers get the Exotic Pet familiar at 2nd level, but say you begun the game with a pet monkey. Could that monkey then gain the Familiar abilities at 2nd level?
From what I've seen, it would make more sense than just randomly finding a monkey in the first part of the Adventure Path. Also, there could be good backstory and RP fluff for already having a monkey.
Bumping for the late night crowd.
The problem is your asking questions that dont need asking. You can use a totaly normal pet to become your familliar at lvl 2 yes.
