You have been born with the innate ability to speak, at will, to any creature in the Mustelid family of mammals (weasels, badgers, ferrets, fishers, martens, otters, polecats, stoats, minks, wolverines etc.). Much like the spell Speak With Animals, you have the ability to comprehend and verbally communicate with these particular beasts - however, there is no set duration.
The knowledge and awareness of many beasts is limited by their intelligence, but at minimum, these beasts can give you information about nearby locations and monsters, including whatever they can perceive or have perceived within the past day. Called creatures, if given the choice, will choose to stay with you and eagerly perform small tasks to gain your favor. If the creature is slain, you must spend an hour performing a ritual to call a new companion. If successful, only one will ever hear your call and the type that responds will depend on the environment you are in. A called creature cannot perform the attack action but, using your bonus action you can ask it to perform the Help action.
