If these little animals have nested in your lodge, they may be activated to allow you to choose one of the 3 “familiar” magic cards that will allow you to summon the Familiar.
Once summoned, the Familiar can be placed adjacent to his master using the “half-moon” base (patented in Sine Tempore) and will provide special abilities to their masters. Or you could move these animals freely around the lodge with their own characteristics and skills.
