forgot to post this doodle thing
I can't in good conscience NOT request Asra and Portia...i know it's not that silly but they're silly TO ME (okay if you don't want to draw that tho lol)
:3
decided to color them
Ok, I was thinking about familiars, and about the fact that it seems to exist a connection between them and arcana patrons. It seems that your patron arcana could influence which creature becomes your familiar. To put it in context, these are the characters whose familiars we know:
Asra, Faust (snake). Patron: the magician (fox).
Nadia, Chandra (owl). Patron: the high priestess (owl).
Julian, Malak (crow). Patron: the hanged man (crow).
Muriel, Inanna (wolf). Patron: the hermit (bear).
Portia, Pepi (cat). Patron: the star (cat).
Lucio, Mercedes and Melchior (dog). Patron: the devil (goat) + the fool (dog).
Aisha, Chimes (snake). Patron: the lovers (snake).
Salim, Flamel (snake). Patron: the lovers (snake).
Morga, Jaeger (eagle). Patron: the chariot (cheetah).
Nafizah, Darude (turtle). Patron: the world (turtle).
From these 10 characters, 7 have a coincidence between familiar and patron… which means that even though the familiar does not depend exclusively on the patron, it is influenced by it.
The most interesting case is Lucio. As we know, his patron is the devil… in this case, familiar and patron do not coincide. BUT, as stated by the devs, patrons can change with time. Lucio’s patron changes in his own route, and he becomes the fool… which DOES COINCIDE with his familiars. And this makes me think that familiars are influenced by patrons, but also a familiar is indicative of the arcanas that have a strong connection with a person.
If this is true, Asra would have a strong connection not only with the magician, but also with the lovers. Muriel would have a strong connection with the moon. And Morga could have a strong connection with the sun. I think this gives extra information about the characters :D!! (For example, that love and connection is incredibly important for Asra, or that Muriel has a connection with what’s hidden, illusions and doubts). Lucio confirms this theory.
It is also interesting that all known familiars are an animal represented by one of the arcanas… which makes me think that there are certain creatures that form connections with humans more easily than others (specifically, those creatures that are represented by one of the arcanas).
I love this idea, and I'd like to add a little more musing:
The Arcana associated with a character's familiar, especially in the cases where it's different from their patron, symbolises what they were in need of at the time they met their familiar.
Asra: Faust hatched not long after he lost his parents. He was alone and in need of companionship and support (the Lovers represents personal connections); Faust herself became that, and Asra had also just met Muriel so it could also tie into him wanting to become closer to Muriel.
Muriel: Inanna was the reason he escaped the Coliseum. The Moon symbolises confronting/overcoming fears and painful memories, and trusting your intuition to guide you out of a dark place. Inanna prompted Muriel to face his fear of Lucio's manipulation and take his freedom.
Morga and Jæger are a little trickier as we don't know exactly how long they've been companions, or many details of Morga's past in comparison, but it definitely fits that she was in need of what the Sun Arcana signifies - hope and abundance, a dawn at the end of a dark night, and the capacity to brighten the lives of those around you. What precise role Jæger might have played here is up to interpretation.
This theory also fits with Lucio and his familiars from the angle of a subconscious or metaphysical push toward embodying the attributes of the Fool instead of those of the Devil that led to his downfall. I haven't thought about how this might extend to characters whose patron matches their familiar but this reply is already too long so I'll stop here lol
I know I draw mainly Asra, Julian and Muriel but I actually love the rest of the cast as well 🥺 Portia is adorable and was so funny draw her, unfortunately I still have to do her route but I hope it will happen soon
