What is a familiar? In witch terms

Haha, but seriously, a familiar is just a magical companion to witches and other fantasy folk. In the case of Supernatural, a cat familiar will boosts a witches spell success rate.

Thankyou for showing me that exists :lol:
-Let me google that for you-
I freaking love the internet.

I wasn't sure if it was a general Witch term or just something the sims team made up for Supernatural.
Thanks for the info

I thought it was just if a witch sim has a pet cat in the normal fashion it boosts his/her spellcasting ability?

Think along the line of Salem from Sabrina. He was a compass but a kinda faulty one on occasion . w . ;

But will this mean people without Pets get it?!

What I find wonderful is I created a cat based on my real life cat, Felix...who happens to be a black cat. Maybe my simself should be a witch :lol:

Familiars can also be birds or snakes(really any animal).
There is a lot of lore surrounding familiars. In some myths the witch is able to turn into her familiar or see through their eyes. In, others they help increase the witch's powers. They basically just serve the witch. In all of the stories I've read, familiars are much smarter than normal animals.

No. Only people with Pets will be able to have one.

would be nice if we could have Dog, Birds, Dragons, and/or Horses as familiars

In one of the new previews of Supernatural they mention Witches being able to use magic through a familiar such as a cat.
What does that mean?

According SIMS Wiki: 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.
