			=== Additional Information ===
			A few excerpts from the Red Book of Conjuring.

			For unknown reasons, the mind of the domestic cat predisposes it
			to familiarhood. Speculations on this date back for centuries, going
			so far as claiming cats and catfolk are a current, degenerate form of
			an elder race steeped in the old ways of magic.

			A more prevalent and accepted theory associates house cats with
			faeries. Indeed, Irusan, the Faerie King of Cats, exists, but if he's
			truely feline, or merely disguised as such, is debatable.

			Higher level mages can bind the local breeds of dragonet as
			familiars. Dragonets arguably lack a cat's intelligence, but are
			decidely better endowed with natural weaponry.

			Beyond dragonets, calling familiars becomes a matter of piercing
			through to realms beyond Astaria. The first supernatural familiar is
			the spunky, or will-o'-the-wisp, a low-magic faerie that spends most
			of its time on the material plane. Spunkies, being faeries, have a
			natural, though diminished, resistance to magic, and their bright,
			fiery forms can sufficiently illuminate dark areas.

			The other bindable fay is the cu sith, or faerie hound. Faerie
			hounds are markedly smarter than their mundane counterparts, but
			their wild, magical nature makes forging the link between mage and
			familiar difficult.

			For high level mages, the elemental spirits can be pressed into
			servitude. On their planes of origin, elemental spirits can't be
			distinguished from their native element, but when conjured to our
			material plane, they manifest in much different forms.

			The teranim, or elemental spirit of earth, appears as a stocky,
			grayish-brown humanoid, while sylphs, the elemental spirits of air,
			manifest as delicate females enclosed in glowing blue orbs.
			Salamanders, the spirits of fire, appear as large fire-shrouded
			lizards, and the undine, or water spirit, manifests as a pale,
			mist-wrapped woman.

			True master mages can bind asteri, or prismatic wraiths, as
			familiars. The asteri are native to the astral plane, and their
			native form is undescribable. Given this, they tend to manifest on
			our plane in truely bizarre ways.

			Being formed from a pure magical source, Asteri are immune to
			direct magic and psionic attacks, but most evocations and other
			elemental congeries can harm them. The asteri also have limited
			second-sight, though its nature is still debated.

			Some rumors have surfaced that other familiar types might exist
			but the specifics of the conjuring have yet to be isolated.
