In Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch, creatures are sentient beings that are born from the hearts of living things. There are many different species in the world and certain ones can usefully be employed by wizards as familiars. Since familiars are often born from human hearts, many think that all familiars are created in this way. This is not the case, however. Most creatures can become familiars, irrespective of their provenance.
Anything with a heart — in the sense of a soul or a spirit — can give rise to a creature, including animals, plants, stars, and even certain man-made objects. Note that while creatures not born of humans are considered “wild,” this does not preclude them from becoming familiars. It is simply a matter of approaching them in the correct manner. The most important step in making a creature your familiar is giving it a name. Naming creates a bond between wizard and creature, and once you have formed this bond with a creature, it will willingly take up residence in your cage and become your familiar.
