Re: Making a complete list of familiars
Pretty sure the Celestial Animal has to be one of the basic familiar animal types, but I'm not sure.
Also, you forgot Huitzil (Dragon Magic) - They're basic, nothing special required.
And, Albatross, Eel, Fish Owl, Octopus, Parrot, and Sea Snake, all basic, but those are all Aquatic campaign familiars (still on the list, though).
And, lastly Horned Lizards (this one's from Sandstorm). Another basic.
That's all I have right now - You might want to check Frostburn, too.Last edited by JackMage666; 2007-05-06 at 10:26 AM.
If there's a rule, there's someone out there trying to figure out how to get around it just to piss off his DM.

Re: Making a complete list of familiars
The DMG has lists for alternative familiars for both small and large masters.

An Alienist from Complete Arcane gets the pseudonatural template added to any familiar they already have.
A Fleshwarper from Lords of Madness has their familiar gain the aberration type and gain some odd abilities.

Re: Making a complete list of familiars
The DMG also lists all 4 of the Small [type] Elementals as Improved Familiars at level 5.
Also: Any celestial/fiendish version of a standard familiar is an Improved Familiar at level 3.
Homunculus and Ice Mephit are Improved Familiars at level 7Last edited by Holocron Coder; 2007-05-06 at 11:28 PM.

Re: Making a complete list of familiars
The Huitzil's in Dragon Magic, not Stormwrack.
If there's a rule, there's someone out there trying to figure out how to get around it just to piss off his DM.

Re: Making a complete list of familiars
Actually only very little D&D material is open game content, at the time of writing only the DMG, PHB, MM1, XPH, Unearthed Arcana and a little snip from a book about deities.
