Implements and demesnes<ref>(1) To the best of my recollection he can let the familiar out, so he has implement and familiar that can be independent things, but he has the familiar within the implement generating and managing power most of the time, and that's the job he has his familiar at most of the time.<br><br>


You can blend as a more permanent thing (not what Laird does). You can have a familiar plus demesnes for a more intelligent demesnes. A familiar plus implement for an object with a personality. An implement plus demesnes for a demesnes you could bring with you. Generally you take a pretty significant hit to power in exchange for some degree of utility. You also lose standing with practitioners and Others. I think I've posted on this before. If you have a talking motorcycle you're giving up 90% of the power of a proper implement and 90% of the power of a proper demesnes, but you're getting an implement that's more weighty and a comfortable seat that isn't limited to one place. And because you're a practitioner that's flouting convention then convention helps you less, so your practice in general isn't going to be all that.

(2) Benefits are you get more clout in the east, more suprises for your enemies since you could have a wider variety in your tricks and what you can bring to bear, though you'd want to maintain a theme or some kind of pattern so you're not too scattered, as it'd be something that would impact your practice. You also get to manage other kinds of forces without being tapped into those same forces, which affords more protection. You do have far less in the way of camaraderie and link to your pets, and your pets can be turned against you if freed. If you employed it in the West, it'd impact your standing with practitioners and Others and it'd be less likely to work - especially as Others may end up being less willing to play ball if captured and told "You guard this place until I say otherwise".

(3) It's stronger when bucking patterns and conventions, but it's less that being random is going to give you power, and more that being deft and surprising your target is going to give you power. You're bucking convention and pattern not by being carefree, but by adopting a new, secret set of patterns and convention, that others don't know as well and can't guard against as easily. - [https://redd.it/8hx8vn stuff to add]</ref>

This is one of the more interesting urban fantasy stories I have read. I know I am spoiled by good writing like the inimitable China Melville and J.K. Rowling; good writing and worldbuilding speaks for itself. I am not sure I will be able to be as serious here as on worm but I will give it the old collage try.
