Onshu seems like the best familiar we've seen so far, though that isn't saying much. Sonic Blast is basically the White Wyrmling special attack on a decently survivable body, and you get to use an actual hero alongside it; pretty decent overall, especially when we compare it to what Onshu's competing with.
 
Great-looking miniature. Onshu's versatility with the Command Familiar, Beast Bonding and his attack choices will be fun in casual play. I appreciate the synergies, advantages, and disadvantages listed in these Books as they help refresh my memory of the game.
 
8) By what seems like odd chance, I came across the fact that Welkin is an olde English word for "heavenly firmament." So his title can be translated as the All Seeing or Omniscient Eye.
