Phral can have only 1 familiar. Phral might be intentionally seeking a familiar, but not every animal encountered is Familiar. Familiars have special abilities and connections to Power and will choose their Phral, even if at a pet shop, the Phral will feel a connection or draw to the animal in question. This can be any type of animal (see below) and will have a special connection with the Phral in which a form of psychic communication is possible. Phral will be deeply affected by the loss of a Familiar, since their bond is so strong.
With meditation or deep concentration, the Phral may be able to see through their familiar’s eyes or hear through their ears (be sure to get OOC consent before using this around others!).
Choose your Familiar wisely, as the animal’s natural abilities will influence what they can do for the Phral. For example, with consent, a dog can sniff another person and know their race, whereas a bird could not. But a bird can fly and perch on someone’s window to spy. A snake might be slower, but can hide in places and be overlooked. In the case of Jolie, she has a distinctive-looking dog, that could be recognized, and that might limit her ability to spy on others.
If you don’t have $L to purchase a Familiar and will NPC it, you must wear a titler saying that you have one and what it is.
Any type of animal, within reason–think about this carefully, you want a pet that could be useful. Exotic, dangerous animals are not allowed - no tigers, lions, etc As you could not walk around town with them on a leash or they would not be approved as ‘pets’ by city laws. If you have doubts or worry about if a particular animal is allowed, please seek Admin approval. The Administration has the final say on what animal is allowed.
