The world of Athia is divided into four realms in Forspoken, each of which is under the rule of one of the four Tantas. The Tantas are powerful sorcerers that were loved by the Athians. Each realm is filled with its unique landscapes, Labyrinths, Monuments, Belfry towers, Pilgrim’s Refuge, caves, and resources.

Furthermore, each of the Tantas had cat-like Familiars, which are uniquely different from the others; some have wings or horns. Also, the little fur balls were loved so much by the Athians that they ended up with their own Monuments, which are known as the Tanta’s Familiars Monuments. The Pilgrims showered these fluffy felines with food and resources in Forspoken, but the Tantas saw it as a waste and forbade anyone from doing it.

How To Unlock Tanta's Familiars In Forspoken

Players need to approach the Familiar Monument to unlock Tanta's Familiars in Forspoken. Approaching the Monument will spawn a little fluffy Familiar near the Monument. The spawned cat-like must be befriended to add it to Frey’s room or an unlocked Pilgrim’s Refuge in Forspoken.

The first Tanta’s Familiar Monument is introduced in chapter four of Forspoken. Upon players' arrival at Middle Praenost: Northern Belfry tower, they can perform a scan with Cuff to locate all the nearby Monuments, Labyrinth, Camera Locations, Caves, and of course the Familiar Monuments. After the scan, players can locate the Monuments in front of the Belfry tower. The Tanta’s Familiar Monument is represented by a paw icon, so animal lovers are unlikely to miss it.

How To Befriend A Tanta’s Familiar

The Tanta’s Familiars are shy creatures, so approaching them directly can drive them away. The best solution to befriend any of them is by doing the following:

  • Crouch by pressing L3 on PS5 or right-clicking the mouse on PC.
  • Try to approach as slowly as possible to not alert the Familiar and scare it away.
  • Stop moving if an exclamation mark appears above the feline.
  • Wait for the mark to disappear and continue moving forward while crouching.
  • Pet the Tanta’s Familiar to successfully make a Familiar Guest in Forspoken.

Failing to approach the catlike Familiar cautiously will scare it away and make it disappear. However, don’t fret as Frey can simply go back to its Monument and wait for it to reappear in Forspoken.

Forspoken is now available on PS5 and PC.
