How it started
It began the way these things usually do — one animal, then a proper setup for that animal, then a second animal to keep it company, and before long a room full of enclosures and a shared obsession with getting the details right.
[Add your real spark here: the first reptile that started it all, and roughly when — a sentence or two in your own words.]
Somewhere along the way it stopped being just a hobby. We started breeding the animals we loved, built tools to keep our own collection healthy, and realized we could help other keepers do the same. That's Planar Familiars.
