"The question is why would you want to summon something that may end up killing you?"

"It depends on what you summon and why"

"The correct term is a familiar. Witches don't necessarily have followers, but they do have companions that assist them in terms of regulating energy (both in the environment and within the witch herself/himself). It's actually why most media portray witches with a black cat, only modern representations are bastardizations of this truth. Cats are the most popular familiars for witches due to their levels of independence and ability to care for themselves. Dogs require more responsibility and often view their owners as masters, while cats view their owners as equals. It is not impossible, however, for a dog or other animal to be a familiar.

More information about familiars will be added to this website soon, please be patient. On a side note, I highly recommend you DON'T try summoning a follower or companion but rather wait until one finds you or seek this in an animal."
