Mages often seek out pseudodragons, whose agreeable disposition, telepathic ability, and resistance to magic make them superior familiars. Pseudodragons are selective when it comes to choosing companions, but they can sometimes be won over with gifts of food or treasure. When a pseudodragon finds an agreeable companion, it bonds with that person as long as it is treated fairly.  Pseudodragon puts up with no ill treatment, and it abandons a manipulative or abusive companion without warning.VARIANT: PSEUDODRAGON FAMILIARSome pseudodragons are willing to serve spellcasters as a familiar. Such pseudodragons have the following trait.Familiar.The pseudodragon can serve another creature as a familiar, forming a magic, telepathic bond with that willing companion. While the two are bonded, the companion can sense what the pseudodragon  senses as long as they are within 1 mile of each other. While the pseudodragon is within  10 feet of its companion, the companion shares the pseudodragon's Magic Resistance trait. At any time and for any reason , the pseudodragon can end its service as a familiar, ending the telepathic bond.--------It talks about mage, spellcaster, or willing creature not once does it ever mention warlock.This relationship is voluntary and the pseudodragon can break the bond at any time.  It never mentions the find familiar spell at all, you don't summon the creature to you it chooses to bond with you.  It is much more like the mage or other spellcaster finding a magic item than anything else.A summoned pseudodragon through the find familiar spell is compelled to follow your commands.  "Your familiar acts  independently of you, but it always obeys your commands." - pg 240 phbA pseudodragon gained as a willing companion has free will and can break the bond when it chooses.I see no issue except if there is a warlock with the chain pact in the party, then it might not be the greatest idea as it steps on his schtick.</blockquote>
