Familiars Familiars are unique, magical creatures that bind themselves with a character. They are intelligent and skillful and gain unique abilities as they develop. This bond unlocks the power of the familiar and enhances the power of the character but it also holds dangers, as the two creatures develop a connection that subjects them to mutual side effects such as pain and death.

Familiars & Powers Familiars advance using Skill Points. Their abilities are classified as Companion Legacies and are acquired by spending Skill Points from their master’s pool upon leveling up.

Properties All familiars share some basic properties. Some of them affect their masters as well.

Psychic Link: Master and Familiar can communicate telepathically at any time. Shared Presence: Master and Familiar perform their Actions on the same Turn. The Familiar is controlled by the Player as a second character. Shared Grit: Master and Familiar share the same amount of Grit and the same Grit Level. Any amount of Damage or effect inflicted will apply to both parties instantly. Shared Vision: Master and Familiar share the same vision. The character can see through the creature’s eyes at will. This allows the Master to target others through the creature’s eyes.
