Dabble Cat Magic — Legacy Witch Art
Cat Magic is a legacy Witch Art that borrows feline senses, grace, communication and supernatural associations. It belongs to the preserved d20 Dabble system.
Choose Cat Magic If…
- You want feline senses, grace and communication woven into your Witchcraft.
- You like the familiar to matter mechanically and in roleplay.
- You want stealthy, observant magic with a mischievous or uncanny edge.
What it feels like to play: Cat Magic works best when the Witch and familiar feel like a partnership. Let the cat notice things first, disappear at inconvenient moments and behave as though it understands more than it should.
Legacy rules note
Tongue of the Cat, the familiar rule, alignment prerequisite and spell list below belong to the preserved d20 Dabble system. Other editions need deliberate conversion.
Cats are associated with watchfulness, silence, independence and the uncanny, making them natural symbols for this Art. The original d20 version requires a neutral alignment component and grants a cat familiar; those are legacy prerequisites rather than universal truths about feline magic.
Power: Tongue of the Cat: The witch gains Wild Empathy with felines and can communicate with felines twice per day as if using speak with animals, as cast by a druid of her character level.
