New Familiar Ideas


Homebrew and House Rules

Liberty's Edge

So, as someone who frequents the Wizard and Witch class, and who loves having little animal friends around, I was thinking about some new ideas for familiars. I know there are a lot, but there are NEVER enough!
So, without a further ado, some ideas for some new familiars (let me know what you think):
Aardvark- 5 foot dig speed
Bunny/ Rabbit (There's a rumor that this already exists)- +3 Perception based on hearing
Penguin- +2 Fort OR +3 Survival
Fish- +5 Swim (can only live in water)
Small Dog (such as a Poodle, Beagle, etc.)- +3 Perception based on scent
Bushbaby- +3 Stealth OR +3 Sleight of Hand
Caterpillar (I'm particularly proud of this one)- +1 Disable Device at level 5, the Caterpillar becomes a butterfly, giving +3 Disable Device and +2 Fly
Chicken- +3 Sense Motive
Chinchilla- +3 Knowledge (Nature)
Eagle- +2 Perception
Guinea Pig- +3 Knowledge (Geography)
Jackalope- +3 Knowledge (arcana)
Koala- +3 Climb
Coyote- +3 Intimidate
Duck- +3 Survival
Okapi (cannot be ridden)- +3 Disguise
Opossum- +3 Bluff
Porcupine- +1 on Attack Roles with a piercing weapon
Red Panda- +3 Knowledge (History)
Turkey- +2 Reflex
Wombat- +2 Will

Feel free to combat with suggestions, or add your own ideas!

It does. It's in animal archive, p. 30, and grants +4 to Initiative.

A familiar that continuously emulates the Burrow spell sounds a bit too overpowered to me.

There actually is a sloth. It gives +3 Climb

How about sanctuary 3/day, because it's too cute to harm?

Marmoset- +3 Climb
