Really Unfamiliar

I looked up familiars in the D&D books I have.

AD&D and AD&D 2e's find familiar spell summons a real creature and grants powers to both the wizard and familiar.

OG's list of familiars is a lot more fun than 2e's.  2e is just some normal small critters, OG summons stuff like quasits and pseudo-dragons.

4e and 5e you're not summoning a real creature.  You're summoning an entity that takes the form of a creature.

The 4e list has lots of fun options.

5e is mundane critters like 2e...  LAME!

But now I have what I want to create an analog for GURPS if I ever get my extended module run going.
