Familiarity

Familiarity is the ability to psychically interact and empathise with plant and/or animal life.

For the majority of Descendants with familiarity abilities, they will generally refer to those animals and flora they interact with as their familiars. It is also unsurprising that many such Descendants tend to practice proficiency with a single genus of familiars, and often to a single species.

Limitations
As with any other ability, familiarity is limited by its user's extent of focus and concentration. Other limitations include:
 * The user's emotional attachment to the familiar(s) in question
 * The user's proximity to their familiar(s)

Application Examples

 * Zoology - the ability to psychically interact and empathise specifically with animals and other such creatures
 * Botany - the ability to psychically interact and empathise specifically with plants and other such flora
