Late night future campaign idea ( #ttrpg ) probably for Pathfinder 1e but could probably homebrew this for 5.5e
PCs play familiars or animal companions of missing (perhaps dead) adventurers. In Pathfinder 1e familiars aren’t summoned spirits as in 5e/5.5e but real creatures enhanced by the process to get a familiar as similarly animal companions likewise are (not a spell as in current D&D). But RAW such creatures lose thier abilities when dismissed or their master dies
So I change that

In my campaign familiars and animal companions when dismissed would retain all their abilities and powers and memories. Mechanically I’ve thought about ways fo make them functionally similar to PCs with ways to level up in the future (they might lose their telepathic bond with their former master - but perhaps retain the ability to establish with others) while this idea might be a fun and perhaps run for humor one-shot at a convention. I also think it could be a really fun long campaign #ttrpg
