Bonding Requirements
You sense an initial eagerness quickly followed by disappointment from the glow, like it was expecting to find an emotional depth to you that isn't there.
It is likely that some amount of empathy is required for bonding this familiar, or possibly introspection or discipline.
Known Abilities
The humble apagion, well-known to the guerilla fighters of the Erisian Liberation Front, is a small glowing creature composed of pure dweomer. Although it is not physically powerful or tough, it is hard to hit, extremely resistant to mundane damage, and deals magick damage in melee. It has no trouble in seeing in darkness, can fly very quickly, and is intangible. It is ametabolic, and cannot eat or drink.
Automatic healing effect
You feel the apagion drawing upon your spiritual energy. The apagion pulses brilliantly. Your wounds heal.
This is a small heal effect that occurs automatically at 30 second intervals, when the Zetesis or the apagion is injured, and will heal both.
Attribute Modifications
A large bonus to Willpower, Charisma and Perception, and a moderate bonus to Intelligence.
Specialty Bonuses

Charms
Apagiontes are gregarious creatures and can mystically charm their fellows into following their consort. Initially the apagion grants the following charms:
Shortly after:

Additional Bonuses and Powers
Combat Maneuvers
A combat maneuver called "Channel Magick" is unlocked towards the end of "very frail" bond strength. It is fueled by the "Magick" resource points that are charged by the Convert charm, granted at the same threshold, and fires a large bolt of magick damage, possibly mixed with some other type (probably extropic or photonic), at a single opponent in combat. It uses the Channeling skill as its core skill. It has a fairly low activity cost, is very accurate, has a low resource cost, and does moderate damage. It cannot be deflected, only dodged.
At "resilient" bond strength, a new attack maneuver, "Channel Luminescence" is added, which is fueled by Endurance. It appears to do a mixture of photonic and heat damage, has a fairly low activity cost, is moderately accurate, and does high damage to a small target area in the form of a beam. It uses recuperation as its core attack skill.
Traits granted
At "Fairly healthy" bond strength, the traits Limb Regenerativity and Luminescence are granted, and increase in effectiveness with bond strength. Note that if the character also has any degree of Light sensitivity, the luminescence is a large liability rather than a benefit. The limb regenerativity rating appears to be about 1/5th of bond strength, e.g. at 50% bond it will be 10.
Fey Bond Info
The following Charms and Abilities are granted by Robust. Note like most Fey Bonds anything you get Charm/Ability wise tends to be given early in the bond, and the middle to tail-end is usually nothing or just some spec access or minor improvement to existing (if any) combat abilities.
