I've been running a game (5E) and I have just given one of my players a familiar Pseudodragon. How would leveling up work? Do familiars level up with the players? If so, how would I go about doing that? Looking for opinions because I am very new to DMing so I don't know how to run that. Thanks!
Standard rules would be that the familiar doesn't level up or progress in any way. You can always homebrew whatever you like of course, but familiars remain very useful even at higher level play without any changes to the standard rules.
