Quadruple d100 C-c-c-combo: Animal Familiars

Never feed your Familiar after midnight

So back in good old 2014, Arnold K. informed us all that we were doing familiars wrong. There are many other bloggers who have done good work with Familiars, perhaps my other favorite of which is James' work on Ten Foot Polemic. Because I've gone off the deep end with these d100 tables lately, I've put together a little random resource for all y'all having fun with Familiars. If you want just an animal companion, just roll on the Trait and Animal tables. If you are doing a familiar, roll on all four. Most of the animal categories have d6 additional examples below the charts. If you don't know what the animal is, look it up on Wikipedia like I did!
