[GM Marvel]

Quite often I flip through old gaming books/mags and find information that may be useful to the game.  In this installment of, Look what GM Marvel has Found, I found an article that gave some new ideas for Familiars.  I thought it possibly might be of interest to Nacesh.  If Nacesh picked up Improved Familiar at least 7th level but retained his Lizard, he could add a new enhancement to the little guy.  In the Lizard's case he would gain an ability called, Regrow.

Regrow (Ex):  You can heal your own wounds as a paladin lays on hands. each day you can heal a total number of hit points of damage equal to half your arcane spellcasting level x your Charisma modifier.

Since healing is difficult to come by as a Sorcerer I thought it might be something Nacesh might consider.

There are a few others listed such as, 

• Bats giving blindsense at 12th level (20' distance)
  
• Toads giving Hallucinatory Perspiration at 9th level (Creatures biting you make a save or be confused for 1d4 rnds)
  
• Cats giving Nine Lives at 5th level (50% chance to stabilize instead of 10%)
  
• Snake or Weasel giving Scent at 7th level (As the Scent ability)
  
• Raven giving Second Memory at 5th level  (Can aid other on Knowledge checks.^)
  
• Rats giving Self-Cannibalize at 9th level (Once/day sacrifice a spell to convert some lethal damage to non-lethal.*)
  
• Hawks or Owls giving Tracker at 9th level (+2 move silently and gain low light vision)
  

^: This is kind of silly.  If the Familiar can talk to you, he should be able to aid you anyways.
*: What?  That sucks!  I think I would change it to something else like the spell level x Charisma Modifier or some other ability.
