Most of this work involved adapting the ArsMagica 4.0 familiar into d20 terms. Let me know what you think and how you'd change it. Cheers! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />FYI  Ideally I'd like to do the same thing with spellbooks and staves (both of which will be given treatment like the familiar for a wizard class based off of Szatany's Ultimate Wizard). In this version a 2nd level wizard choses a sign of power: either a familiar or staff. I feel the staff gets the short end of the stick, and should be revised as I did the familiar. Then I realized that a wizard should instead have a true grimoire, a really, really fearsome spellbook that is booby-trapped, can magically hold information, holds content the wizard didn't even realize was there, can trap people inside, etc. The spellbook would become the third sign of power for a wizard choosing neither a familiar nor a staff.Edit: I found Holger "Putzel" Mueller's work on the wizard's staff familiar from 2003 -- Very cool! Just do a search for wizard's staff familiar. Guess that means that my job will be the spellbook! Or should I say True Grimoire!</blockquote>
