Familiar lost from the screen

I lost my familiar from the screen and i don't have any clue how to get it back?
I tryed to summon a new one but it wouldn't let me cause it said I already have one familiar. I lost it in Saradush sewers. It is not in my inventory either.

thanks

Odd. I didn't think that was possible. If you think you lost your familiar in the sewers did you check them thoroughly again?

It is possible, all you have to do is be given a quest item, and that pushes the first, second etc until all items received. Now, if the familiar was in this position, it would be knocked onto the ground.

Anyway, that doesn't get you any closer to your old pal. I believe it was a cheese discovered, that if you leave him long enough, he'll disappear and then you can someone another one.

Or you could go down there and look for him if possible. Either way, it's your choice.

Maybe you can use the CluaConsol to bring it in or if you have shadow keeper bring it in there?

Ahh, I was thinking of the situation with the familiar outside of the inventory.

If the familiar was dropped, I doubt it would disappear (at least not for a very long time) as it would be classed as very important. Scout the sewers with the Tab key- see if that highlights it.

Was the familiar in or out of your inventory when you lost it?

No, it is possible for it to disappear. I happened to read it in the cheese guide, as it is a way to gain more hitpoints for your mage.

I tryed everything

Well I released it from my inventory wich I didn't think it would have vanished. I tryed highlighting the area, checked my inventory over and over. But nothing.

P.S. WHAT IS CLUACONSOL OR A SHADOW KEEPER PATRICK

Clua and SK

Shadowkeeper is a saved game editor...

You may be able to add it into you're inventory with that, but I'm dubious... I tried to give my paladin one that way, but when he'd bring it out of his inventory, it would just fall onto the ground...

Clua Console is an in-game tool which also lets you add stuff, alter and see variables, but I wouldn't know where to begin with that. Here's some info on the console:

You might use Shadowkeeper to look for a global variable referring to "familiar." That may provide a way to summon another, if you can reset it...

Yeah just a suggestion I don't know the results, maybe you can get it to work. Like Stamoski says. CluaConsol is a little complicated because you need codes. Shadow Keepper is great even if you use it at all so For beginners this is a big step but have fun, use it but don't abuse it. Make your gamming scream.
