Find Familiar

Post by Arowyn »

Where do you get the scroll of find familiar? I can't find it on any of the merchants.

Check in the back of the Adventurer's Mart, the back left hand corner upstairs. The lady there has pretty much every scroll available.

Now that's strange... especially considering I've found who knows how many copies of that scroll around. It's somewhere, I assure you, but I can't think of where. I seem to remember there being one in MaeVar's Guildhall so you might check there. Otherwise it may be somewhere on this site in either a walkthrough, or another post.

As far as I recall, there is a copy in the chest next to the forge in De'Arnise keep.

Hey-
I've tried to cast find familiar in a few different settings...(In a city, in the underdark) each time I get a rabbit! I reload and try again, and it's nothing but rabbits! Has the game decided that's my "spirit guide" or something? Has anyone gotten a familiar other than a rabbit?

mmmm, rabbit stew! That's about all they're good for. I'm not asking for a pseudodragon here, just a crow or a cat or something!!!

I think the familiar you get depends on your alignment. Are you by any chance true neutral?
