## Description

Normal familiars hove 2-4 hit points and armor class of 7 (due to size, speed, etc.). Each is abnormally intelligent and totally faithful to the magic-user whose familiar it becomes. The number of the familiar's hit points is added to the hit point total of the magic-user when it is within 12" of its master, but if the familiar should ever be killed, the magic-user will permanently lose double that number of hit points. If a special familiar is indicated, details of the powers it conveys ore given in ADVANCED DUNGEONS & DRAGONS, MONSTER MANUAL for all ex- cept the brownie. This creature becomes a friend and companion to the magic-user, and he or she will gain dexterity equal to the brownie's (18) andthe advantage of never being surprised, as well as +2 on all soving throws. Note that special familiars are entitled to a saving throw versus magic when summoned by the spell, and if they succeed, they will ignore the spell, and NO familiar will be available that year to the caster. A familiar will fight for the life of the magic-user it serves only in a life- and-death situation, and imps and quasits will be 90% likely not to do so at the risk of their own life.
