You can spend 8 hours bonding with a friendly beast, familiar, or other creature your DM approves of, this cannot be done during a long rest. When you finish this bonding period, your companion gains the following benefits:
- Their hit point maximum is increased by twice your level.
- They use your proficiency bonus rather than its own.
- You can increase one of your companion's ability scores by 1, to a maximum of 20. They gain this benefit again when you reach levels 8, 12, and 16.
- When you reach 6th level, choose one of your companion's weapon attacks. The chosen attack deals an additional weapon damage die on a hit.
You can only be bonded to one creature at a time. If your companion dies, you can repeat the bonding process with another friending beast, familiar, or other creature your DM approves of.
