Summons an otherworldly being to assist you. The mere presence of an imp will help reduce losing concentration on spells as well as provide unique prep spells to the summoner. Though terrible at following orders, a caster who wishes to banish the familiar may give it the order to 'leave', or dismiss the familiar. Such summoned beings are bound to the caster for a very long time, even persisting after the caster has rented.
Imps, in particular, are prone to boredom. It is wise to keep an imp at least somewhat entertained where scenery is concerned, lest they decide to start annoying the people around them.
Types of familiars include Owl, Cat, Crow, Wolf and Imp. If you don't specify which you wish to summon, the Imp will arrive by default.
