The Kattegat Familiar Ghost Figurine - Salty

Salty is a handmade collectible Kattegat Familiar ghost cat figurine.

The Familiars do not belong to the guild. Not exactly.

They were never apprenticed, never sworn in, never given a merchant's mark. They simply... arrived. As cats do. And having arrived, they stayed. As cats do. They learned the rhythms of the guild; the long hours, the careful work, the particular silence of a room where old things are being recorded. And they decided this was acceptable.

They are not catalogued in the Merchant's Ledger.

Salty is said to appear wherever sea spray gathers on old timber and ropes have begun to stiffen with salt.

Sailors once considered him a favourable little presence aboard working vessels, though not necessarily a helpful one. He was known to sit quietly among coils of rope, watch the horizon with great seriousness, and steal the warmest place below deck whenever the weather turned foul.

Some accounts claim Salty could smell a change in the wind long before the crew could. Others insist he simply disliked getting wet.

Salty the ghost cat figurine stands at 5 cm in height.
