glyph question!

By fatchino18, in Descent: Journeys in the Dark

ok, can animal familiars use glyphs, because the rulebook says only heroes can? and if they can does the card "sloth" come into effect by making use a conquest point to go into town?

any help would be great! thank you very much!

Familiars cannot use glyphs.

thanks! that's a big help for our games in the future!

but if famliars can't use glyphs do they still enter the game through glyphs?

So if a hero dies, his familiar stays where it is on the board?

I know that when you start the dungeon, the familiar is on the same square as his hero.

Familiars start the dungeon in the same square as their hero, per the dungeon setup rules in the main book.

Yep. If you die, go to town, jump in a portal, or do anything else that doesn't involve setting up a new dungeon, the familiar stays where he's at.

The hero comes in through the glyph and then summons his familiar like a non-com pet in WoW. Don't question the logic of Descent, secretly it doesn't exist.
