Familiar Questions
Posted: Mon May 08, 2017 5:39 pm
I'm seriously confused about how familiars are supposed to work.
How are familiars' ability scores (Strength, Agility, etc.) determined?
The only place I see any mention of them having ability scores is in the description of the demonic type.
"For example, if corruption resulted in loss of 1 point of Strength, the familiar would lose 1 Strength and the wizard would be unaffected."
And when their intelligence is mentioned.
"Are unusually intelligent for their species, typically around an Int of 5 in human terms."
Is there a base stat block I'm not seeing? Is it supposed to be the judge's best guess based on the physical form?
Also, is what is noted in parentheses on the physical form table the bonus that applies to the master or to the familiar?
Thanks!
