Familiar

Familiar

A spellcaster and a familiar.

Familiars are magical creatures that act as companions for witches and spellcasters in The Sims 2: Apartment Life (when The Sims 2: Pets is also installed) and The Sims 4: Realm of Magic. Witches in The Sims 3: Supernatural get a moodlet that boosts spellcasting if they own a cat or a small pet, but these pets are completely normal otherwise.

The Sims 2: Apartment Life

If players also have Pets installed, witches can summon their own cat familiar called a spectral cat.

The Sims 4: Realm of Magic

Under Development

Features that are mentioned here may be radically different in the finished product, or excluded altogether. All statements must have a valid source or they will be deleted.

In Realm of Magic, spellcasters can acquire magical familiars that can aid in spellcasting. If players own Cats & Dogs, they can make their pets familiars as well. Spellcaster children can also own one, though they are unable to do magic until they grow up.

Interactions

Familiars are extremely helpful to spellcasters. They have magical energy reserves, aid spellcasters in magic duels, and can even protect them from death. Familiars must rest to regain their power after saving their owner's life.

Trivia

• The fairy's appearance and one of its randomized names, "Hey", is a possible reference to Navi from The Legend of Zelda, a small glowing fairy who is known for saying "Hey! Listen!" to get the player's attention.
