The DM made my familiar an extension of my character's soul. It did the typical familiar things like scouting and spell channeling, but could only go so far before my character would start to lose consciousness. It also proved instrumental in convincing our big bad (my pc's divine soul twin turned emerging dark god) that we could move past the shit the church did to us and be together with our family again via sharing the mutual pain the church had inflicted on us. I had to expose and offer up half my soul to prove my sincerity, but it worked.
