Once per day, using the Beast Bond spell, you can summon a familiar to fight by your side. Each pet starts off as a small creature (Small Bird, Cub, etc.) Starting at 3rd level, you can use your bonus action to telepathically call on your pet to attack your foes. When your creature makes a successful attack, the target takes 1d4 damage and must make a saving throw or be affected by the creature's attack. The damage is increased at 6th level (1d6), and 12th level (2d6). Attack rolls are determined by your spell attack.
Each pet's attack has an associated damage type, and an additional effect. The DC for this effect is determined by your spell DC:
Hawk - Talons (Slashing) When your creature makes a successful attack, the target must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or be Blinded.
Wolf - Bite (Piercing) When your creature makes a successful attack, the target must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or be knocked Prone.
Bear - Claw (Slashing) When your creature makes a successful attack, the target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be Frightened.
Octopus - Tentacle (Bludgeoning) When your creature makes a successful attack, the target must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be Restrained.
