Shovel (familiar): Difference between revisions

{{Stub}}

Shovel is a carefree and upbeat fiend that finds joy in murder, arson and eating babies. She is impatient, and very easily gets bored. In spite of her irreverent demeanour, Shovel can be deeply loyal, even when denied the many pleasures of violence.

* Temporarily via the {{RarityItem|Scroll of Summon Quasit}} found in the [[Apothecary's Cellar]].

** The scroll can also be scribed by [[Wizard|wizards]], allowing them to permanently acquire the spell and cast it once per [[Short Rest|short rest]].

* Permanently via a missable dialogue, unlocking an action to summon her, located in the Common tab. This spell is not lost on resetting the caster's levels through [[Withers]].

[[Warlock|Warlocks]] and [[Wizard|wizards]], as well as [[Sorcerer|sorcerers]] with the [[Draconic Bloodline]] subclass,  can gain the spell permanently by talking to Shovel after using the scroll to summon her in the [[Apothecary's Cellar]],{{note|That only sorcerers with the Draconic Bloodline subclass can acquire Shovel this way may be unintended behaviour, since there is no apparent reason for this behavior.}} and then selecting any dialogue option except for '"No. And you'll ..."'.

 

The caster must then get past the [[Ornate Mirror]] in the same location, and must then {{em|immediately}} talk to Shovel again on the other side. When done correctly, she will refer to the caster as a magic user, and her new '"master"'.{{verify}}

 

If the caster proceeds too far into the room on the other side of the mirror,{{verify}} Shovel will instead initiate a dialogue about trust, bypassing the point at which the spell can be permanently unlocked. If this happens, there is no way to permanently acquire Shovel as a familiar.
