[QUOTE="Leif, post: 3964540, member: 48762"] [b]RE-THINKING THE FAMILIAR ISSUE, or Unfamiliar Familiar Circumstances[/b] I'm open to something like that. How about a sort of "conservatory"-type room where the apparent inside dimensions don't match the outside dimensions. Much like the way the holodeck works on Star Trek, but it is not an illusion. Instead it's a kind of magical extradimensional effect, that allows an area of forest glade, meadow, and brook to be tucked away inside Whirtlestaffs, and where the familiars can run and play freely. I'm thinking that it will function like Heward's Handy Haversack, in that when a wizard enters the conservatory (unless someone has a better name for it) his/her familiar will always be near the door. And to make it even handier, the conservatory would have one entrance near the dormitories so wizards could get to their familiars quickly and easily from their personal rooms, but it would also have an exit to the attached stable area, so that you could pick up your familiar and take him/her/it with you for an outing without ever actually having the familiar in the parts of Whirtlestaffs reserved for people. How does that sound? [/QUOTE]
