And while we're at it...do ya think the thing would age at the same rate as a normal animal?

No aging for familiars. Otherwise a prototypical long-lived cat-loving mage would always have red-rimmed eyes from crying over the last dozen or so lost familiars.

Right--the crow in question has no mystical connection to the character. It doesn't seem far-fetched, though, to presume that magical animals live longer than the normal ones.

I don't know if Animal Aging is even part of the rules! When does an animal start making rolls? But yeah, I can imagine that magical animals would age at a slower, human-scaled rate or slower, and faerie animals might not age noticeably much at all.

I think RoP: Magic answers this - anyone had a chance to read it much yet?

Otherwise, check out the example character: Virgil the Magical Cat and related thread:

Virgil the Magical Cat

Check out the example Magical Animal posted by Atlas: atlas-games.com/pdf_storage/ ... Virgil.pdf Looks like RoP: Magic will be a very interesting book indeed. I sense the hand of Ferguson at work... Cheers, Lachie (Here's hoping for a return of the Magical Cat lineages of Jerbiton in one form or another)
