#Spooktober 26
animal familiar
Technically, I don’t have to choose a familiar. I already have one. A cat. They’re a common choice and my preferred choice.
As a writer, my favorites to write were Mazatta the crow in The Kovenlore Chronicles, and the five rylls that belong to Zephtasha in an upcoming mystery.
The crow had limited speech, great wit, and amazing insight. The rylls were like five sides of a single personality.
