Hey so I had this idea. No idea if it's any good. But let's see.

So here's the premise,
We've got this huge magical fantasy world. Full of wizards and dragons and all that good stuff.
But we're not going to focus on that. A lot of spell casters and magical beings use spells that conjure familiars to do battle or perfomr labor. From a wizard's familiar, to a druids summoned truant to a paladins mount. This world is full of magical ways to get some temporary aid. Question is: where do they go when the spell ends? Where are they when they are not needed?

Well most go home to their native plane, but there are some who know of a place.
A place located on the edge of the astral sea. Where they serve the best drinks this side of the multiverse.

The game will revolve around the Familiar Tavern.
You'll play the summoned creatures that frequent it, in between their duties to their mortal caster.
Pretty much anything goes as long as it's something that can be summoned in a fantasy game.

can i play an author's ambassador? she would be speaking for me, her author, and know she's a fictional character. she wont tell anyone that their world is a fantasy, she is just there to make whimsical remarks about god-like beings who use people and creatures for their amusement.

if i cannot play her, i will play Samyazaii, a fallen angel who is supposed to be constantly with my main character, The Infamous (a mortal warlord in charge of hell), but after he turns good, she is banished to the "tavern."

I'm actually quite interested. I like how you've given an old idea a new twist. ^_^

@akje You know that Fus Ro Dah dragonborn shout and all those songs and videos? Almost like that but in a low demonic whisper where the r-u-h, sk-o and d-ah part is prolonged into a spine chilling whisper. The r in the end is almost silent. And it's more like a curse. The cursed person hears the name being whispered to him just before the beast strikes. And he only strikes during the night.

I think I want one more interested person and I'll go make the treat.
Meanwhile, here's a draft of the Character sheet. Tell me if I'm forgetting something.

Name: How you introduce yourself
True name: a close held secret, those who know is hold control over you
Mage: The mortal who has sway over you. Name, description, how he controls you (force, true name, friendship, other)
Orgin: Where you'd normally go back to
Alignment: Are you bound by moral codes?
Personality traits: Let's say, pick 2 to 5 recognizable traits. Leave room for development.

Forms:
True Form:
You at 100%. What you're like in your home plane or in the open astral sea.
Summoned Form: What your mage gets when he calls you to the mortal plane.
Tavern Form: The Tavern alters your true form to somewhat humanoid dimensions. For practical reasons. (got to fit trough a door, got to be able to hold a beer, etc.)

True name: Trazale Kef the Beautiful
Mage: The Soceress Kandi of the Isle of Mer (She is a friend to Titana Queen of the Fae who granted Alph to her as a guide to Fae Magic)
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Personality traits: Alph is sweet to almost everyone who doesn't try to be cruel to her.
Curious she loves to peek into boxes, bags, rooms and even streams
Alph is brave even though she is only 3 feet long and will fight with all the force she can muster but isn't foolish enough to fight to the death.
Studious she can often be found reading some tome of magic
Playful, as a member of the Fairy Dragon species she loves to have fun playing jokes on mortals or her friends.

True Form: See above image
Summoned Form: Same as above
Tavern Form:
