Book dragons are Variant: Tiny Book Dragon There are book dragons made small enough that they are about the size of your passport booklet. These are highly coveted creatures and can serve as familiars. Such glass dragons are instead Tiny sized and have the following traits: False Appearance. While the dragon remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from a glass statuette. Familiar. The dragon can serve another creature as a familiar, forming a magic, telepathic bond with that willing companion. While the two are bonded, the companion can sense what the dragon senses as long as they are within 1 mile of each other. While the dragon is within 10 feet of its companion, the companion shares the dragon's Magic Resistance trait. At any time and for any reason, the dragon can end its service as a familiar, ending the telepathic bond.
