I lost my familiar a while back, and I really want to get another. The rules say "a year and a day", but we are at the beginning stages of "The Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil". I already gained two levels from the time that I lost him (about a month in game time). At this rate (in game time) I will be level 18 or 19 before I can get one. This type of adventure doesn't allow too much downtime to wait out that year. And we, as a group, don't get together very often (about once a month).
I asked my DM if gaining two levels is enough to summon again, but he refuses, and quotes the rules. Is there anything I can do to convince him to bend the rules in this case? Or will I have to contend to not having a familiar for what will probably be the life of the character?
