ABOUT

Originally crafted as a pet for Sporkus’ children, the first Spikey was tossed aside and forgotten when the demigod’s children received a batch of shiny new toys.

Saddened, the first Spikey set out on its own, determined to make new friends, a feat it achieved in the literal sense when it built another Spikey, which built another Spikey. The process continued for a while, and now there are numerous Spikeys rolling around and having fun with their friends!

Pact of the Chain Familiar. At the gamemaster’s discretion, a warlock with a pact of the chain may choose the form of a spikey for their familiar.

Crafting Spikeys. At the gamemaster’s discretion player characters who are proficient in the Arcana skill or with Smith’s Tools or Tinker’s Tools and have obtained the Spikey schematic can create a Spikey by spending time and materials comparable to creating an uncommon magic item.
