Familiar Ideas
Posted: Sun Mar 03, 2013 3:30 pm
We can use guild points to repair corpse animations, I’d really love the option of being able to use guild points to select different types of familiars to summon. Perhaps the easiest way to do this would be to exchange guild points for a consumable of some time that has a specific amount of uses and gets destroyed after consumption.
I understand the difficulty that might come from changing familiars into different types of animals based on the fortitude or types of attacks associated with specific animals - but assuming that all the choices were kept to bite/claw damage maybe not too difficult?
Examples:
a shadowy feline familiar
The shadow familiar is small, about the size of a housecat. Its inky black, semi-gaseous body is humanoid, with a pair of bat-like wings, fangs, claws, and a barbed tail giving it a malevolent look. Two luminous cold blue points of light stare out from the shadow familiar's face.
a shadowy reptilian familiar
The shadow familiar is small, about the size of an iguana. Thick obsidian-like scales cover the body of this six-legged creature, each foot clawed with razor-sharp talons.Two luminous cold blue points of light stare out from the shadow familiar's face.
a shadowy avian familiar
The shadow familiar is small, about the size of a raven. The long neck is touched with hues of deep sanguine, much like the curved talons. Rippling mists form onyx feathers creating a narrow body with a giant wingspan. Two luminous cold blue points of light stare out from the shadow familiar's face.
a shadowy canine familiar
The shadow familiar is small, about the size of a hound. Large yellowed fangs protruded from the large maw of the creature. Spikes of ebony run down its vaporous body. Two luminous cold blue points of light stare out from the shadow familiar’s face.
a shadowy arachne familiar
The shadow familiar is small, about the size of a cave spider hatchling. Eight large legs extend from its misty stygian body, which is covered with tiny hairs that ripple in and out of existence. A cluster of luminous cold blue points of light stare out from the shadow familiar’s face.
a shadowy rodent familiar
The shadow familiar is small, about the size of a ferret. The lean body of this creature is formed of sinuous dark haze, its feet covered in long arching spikes. The long muzzle of the creature has a sickly green tint. Two luminous cold blue points of light stare out from the shadow familiar’s face.
Also, would it be possible to convert the length of the message on shadow familiars to work with the skill in sorcery? 200 or 300 hundred ranks affords you one more word. 400/500 allows you three.
Thanks!
