Reibus
An intelligent, talking cat. Companion of Wykel Witherstan. Very well-read and conversant in the history of magic, able to cast some himself.
Originally a normal, male black and brown alley cat, Reibus stumbled into a ritual being cast by a druid and became awakened. He ran and hid, scared and confused, until Witherstan found him and helped him adjust to his new nature. The two are fast friends, and Reibus has by now long out-lived a normal cat lifespan, with no signs of old age.
