So the Warlock in the campaign I DM is hatching a kruthik (small reptilian spidery guy) and wants to replace her wisp familiar with it. Since it is a physical being, I thought this would make a good skill challenge by requiring a short ritual to bind it's soul to her own (I think the warlock will like that, she took Ritual Casting, anyways!)
Key skills:
Arcana- to draw the ritual circle and runes and to extract and bind the soul
Religion - to contain the soul during binding
Aiding skills: Successes give +2 to rolls on key skills
Dungeoneering - Monster knowledge
Endurance - to physically restrain the kruthik
Nature - Monster knowledge
Insight - to supervise the ritual and make sure whatever goes wrong is reported
can anyone else think of a key skill? Two seems a bit restrictive but I can't think of another good one.
Attached is the familiars stat block/card, and the back which contains info on how familiars work (the first sentence of point four being a houserule since the PC is a Kalashtar.) Feel free to use it, or use the document as a template for your own familiars, pets or monsters.
