Familiar faces, seven new monsters suitable as warlock familiars

The objective of this work is to provide 5th edition players with new, interesting familiars for their spellcaster characters. The following creatures are animals and strange beasts, ranging from the cute to the creepy.

I had special care in creating adequate familiars for every warlock patron released in the handbooks so far. Some of the provided creatures may work even with the common usage of the find familiar spell, but they were designed to be more powerful than the usual tiny little familiar. Finally, you can also use them as simple monsters: I'm quite sure that you'll find some of them more than adequate.

In the following pages you will find:

The eye stalker, for madness is in the eye of the beholder.

The gremlin, a fairy sapper with a taste for causing accidents

The guiding light, a radiant messenger from Heaven.

The hound, a trusted hunting companion.

The moon cat, a fey-related puss with a keen mind and sharp claws.

The unborn, a tiny undead horror so vile that words can't describe it.

And, last but not least:

The winged cat, a kitten with wings.

PS: special thanks to Conan The Barbarian, my faithful Italian hound, and Logan, the cat that is the best at what he does, and what he does is being nice. The two of you were the true inspiration behind this work.
