Conjure Familiar

Summons a spectral wolf to fight for you for 60 seconds.

Conjure Familiar calls up a ghostly wolf that fights by your side for 60 seconds – no corpse required. It’s the first summon most mages learn, and Bretons start the game knowing it.

Tips

Twin Souls lets you keep two familiars at once. There’s also an explosive version, Flaming Familiar.
