Archive Entry #002 Documented by: Archivist Quill Status: Documented (with reservations - they keep stealing my notes)
Species: Potion Crow Crystal Affinity: Alchemy / Potion-infused crystal Region of Origin: The Potion Marsh Rarity: Uncommon
Potion Crows are corvid familiars whose feathers have been permanently altered by prolonged exposure to alchemical runoff in the Potion Marsh. Their plumage shifts color depending on the most recent potion they've been near - purples for sleep draughts, greens for growth tonics, iridescent for anything volatile.
They are extremely intelligent. Perhaps too intelligent. Quill retracts nothing.
Potion Crows are scavengers with no particular loyalty. Correction: Potion Crows are selective. They don't bond easily, but once bonded, they are fiercely protective of their person. They're also known to bring gifts - usually shiny things, occasionally things that are on fire. It's their love language.
Witty. Mischievous. Loyal in ways they'd rather you didn't notice. Potion Crows pretend to be aloof but will absolutely sulk if you pay too much attention to another familiar. They have excellent memories and will hold grudges and gratitude in equal measure.
Best suited for someone who appreciates a familiar with personality. They will rearrange your desk. They will judge your aesthetic choices. They will also sit on your shoulder at 2am when you can't sleep and refuse to leave until you feel better. Available as a sticker sheet from the shop.
