As familiars are a big part of our game, I wanted to give everyone a chance to talk about their familiars and maybe even find some fun familiar CR going on~! Here is a nice little form you can fill out or you can just do whatever you want for replies too, I won't judge!

Character
Name: Aziraphale/ Mr. Fell
Canon: Good Omens
Magic: Alchemy
Links: IC contact

Familiar
Name: Lamassu (at least for now)
Species: Lamassu
Special features: "A celestial being from ancient Mesopotamian religion bearing a human head, bull's body, sometimes with the horns and the ears of a bull, and wings." They often served as guardians, protecting and supporting (sometimes literally as architectural elements in Assyrian art) important places.
Personality: Aziraphale's described Them as like a headmaster. Lamassu is not so much bored as They are DONE with everything. When nearly 3000years old you are, patience you will also have not. Things would go a lot smoother for poor Lamassu if Aziraphale would stop mooning over the Demon and just do his magic studies. Alas.
Can they talk: Yes and yes. Lamassu uses We when talking and I've recently extended it to They in the narrative, though I am inconsistent and so Lamassu is a He/They. Despite the English Headmaster attitude described above and Aziraphale's comparison of Lamassu to the Metatron of his canon, I imagine They talk slowly and perhaps a little bored. In my head (based on imperfect memory of their voices, mind you), I've come to imagine Them sounding somewhat like a mix of handful of characters from The Neverending Story and, ok, a little bit of inspo from some very tired teacher characters. No, I do not have a soundbite. I don't know how to describe exactly what I mean, but it makes sense in my head. Lamassu sounds ANCIENT and SO VERY DONE. Asking himself this every day.
Visuals: One with a lionish body and One with hooves
