Entity: Familiar Master

Source Player Core 2 pg. 200 ^1.1

From the wise owl perched on the wizard's shoulder to the crafty gremlin that serves the witch for their own reasons, the ghastly homunculus in the alchemist's lab to the clever monkey that picks the lock of the thief's cell, familiars have always served. Yours serves better than most. This is often due to an unusually strong connection or rigorous intentional training. Regardless of the method, the extraordinary qualities of your familiar are undeniable.

You and your familiar are a team in and of yourselves. In a tough situation, you know you have each other's back, and you are nigh inseparable. Some familiar masters, however, choose to keep familiars for only a short period. They will keep their ally for a time, then release them and forge a new bond. They form strong connections quickly and attract new familiars everywhere they go. This behavior is less common but is often done out of a high level of respect for the independence of both the adventurer and the familiar, or a strong connection to the ebb and flow of life and the cycle of change that touches all things. You are among these masters and can decide which practice best suits you.
