==Notable Familiars & Their Masters==
*[[Rose Thorburn Senior|Rose D. Thorburn, Sr]]. – A large gray housecat (Unidentified)
*[[Laird Behaim]] – A mechanical gold/ivory pocket watch with a [[Zeitgeist|time spirit]].
*[[Johannes Lillegard]] – A large Afghan Hound ([[Faysal Anwar|Faysal Anwar, Gatekeeper of the Seventh Ring]])
*[[Briar Girl]] – An elemental beast of some sort, theorized to be more in control of her than she is in control of it.
*[[Blake Thorburn]] - A Song Sparrow ([[Evan Matthieu|Evan]], [[Ghost]])
*[[Joseph Attwell]] - A person with a disfigured face ([[Face-Stealing Bogeyman|Face-stealing]] [[Bogeyman]])
*[[Sandra Duchamp]] - A Stoat ([[Hildr]], Scandinavian [[Troll]])
*Thomas Black - A black housecat (Living [[Curse]])<ref>Thomas Black - Shadow Dancer (Ogre Mage) - Thomas's family uses the rhythm and pattern of ogre magic, but largely abstains from martial techniques. Blending oni magic and [[curse]] magic with the shadow arts, Thomas uses bolts, blasts, and elemental effects, but each is heavily restricted by prerequisites. Rather than having to get in close and deliver hits, Thomas weaves together effects, setting the enemy up and keeping them under the barrage of this and that. The 'Plunge into _' technique is most effective if the foe is already suffering from two or more curses or status effects, and knocks them to the ground. The '_ Eruption' technique causes a spike of congealed ___ to rise from beneath, most effective if the foe is lying on the ground, and knocks them airborne, etc. The ___ Flare attack is his filler if no attack fits or if he needs something to get started off, and his black cat familiar is a living curse that trips enemies up so everything's just a little more likely to land, but he can have it become something similar to a flare, to serve as emergency filler at the cost of no longer granting its ambient effect for the remainder of the combat. Differentiated from a strict elementalist in the focus on patterns and sequences, and the fact that instead of one strong cast he tends to have a series of minor effects that batter, debilitate and build to a crescendo. Uses ____ effects like mute, blind, doom, and regret, inflicting status and emotion effects or (for doom) hampering opponents' karma. His finishing move is a heavily telegraphed technique with a long wind-up that destroys his enemy's karma. - [https://redd.it/7okwqi Wildbow on Reddit.]</ref>

*Tymon - Has a Vestige called Dreg that takes the form of a mouse<ref>“This is Dreg.”<br><br>Right.  They were the callers of these great spirits of drugs or whatever.<br><br>Maybe not boyfriend material.  They’d been told to be careful and steer clear.<br><br>“Is he the spirit you call?” Lucy asked.<br><br>Tymon laughed, suddenly enough it startled her.<br><br>“No,” Dreg rasped, speaking with an adult’s voice.  “A good familiar is a partner, something you can control, or something you’re willing to be controlled by.  Things as large and wild as Black Gutter do nothing except drown you out.”<br><br>“Dreg is a vestige.  Was Aware enough to dip into some Jekyll and Hyde type alchemy, eroded away a good chunk of his Self.  Only a fragment of the person was left, other stuff took up residence.”<br><br>“I was almost a doctor,” Dreg said.  “A sip of this, a drab of that, to bring out the sharpness of my mind and my attention to details and diagnosis.  I was an angel to hundreds of people who had nothing.  But the same drug made me frail, and some people broke me to pieces so they could take my stash of herbs and chemicals.  Then I had only the frailty, a shattered body, an old self I’d forgotten, and dashed dreams of what might have been.” - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/09/05 Excerpt] from [[Leaving a Mark 4.6]]</ref>
*[[List of BHI Students#Talia Graubard|Talia Graubard]] - Has a Canopic Doll familiar named Effy, they performed the familiar ritual after Talia's mum threaten to replace Talia with Effy if she didn't live up to her satisfaction.<ref>“The way a canopic doll works, especially if it’s raised alongside someone, given a birthday every time I had a birthday, with parts replaced to match my height and shape and stuff as I grew up, ummm, when it harvests, it can become human, after.  She could become me.  I awoke on my own, secretly, then I talked to Effy, and neither of us were sure if my mom would keep me or Effy.  So we agreed she’d be my familiar.  That way my mom would have to keep us both or destroy us both.” - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/09/08 Excerpt] from [[Leaving a Mark 4.7]]</ref>
