Want A Familiar

Post by Shados_Draconio »

Ok, I'm kind of looking for a way to get the familiar I want.
Every time I cast "Find Familiar" I only get a stupid FAIRY dragon. I want a PSEUDO dragon. Can anyone help me on this? I have tried codes, which I'm not fond of, and can't KEEP the one I want.

I'd be grateful for any help

Which familiar you get is based on your alignement. You have to be either Neutral Good or Lawful Good in order to get the Pseudo Dragon. My recommendation is that you stick with the Fairy Dragon though, it really is more useful...

He's right. Here's the list:

Lawful Good & Neutral Good-Pseudo Dragon(2 attacks per round at THACO :13 for 1-3 damage.Save or be rendered unconscious for 120 seconds.May cast Blur)
Chaotic Good-Fairy Dragon(May cast Mirror Image,Invisibility 10` radius)
Lawful Neutral-Ferret(Has good pickpocketing stats,may detect traps and use stealth)
True Neutral-Rabbit (has detect traps and stealth but no pickpocketing ability)
Chaotic Neutral-Cat(Has hide in shadows and move silently at 99%,surprisingly has pickpocketing skills)
Lawful Evil-Imp(May cast Polymorph Spells)
Neutral Evil-Dust Mephit(May cast Glitterdust)
Chaotic Evil-Quasit(May cast Blur and Horror)

Note that the Pseudo Dragon is in some ways one of the worst familiars to have, since its skills involve combat. And if a familiar is killed in combat, you lose a point of Constitution. Permanantly. Even if you recast the Familiar spell.
