In Dungeons & Dragons, a Scottish Fold cat is not an official creature listed in core rulebooks, but it can be imagined as a flavorful familiar, magical pet, or even a shapeshifted creature in a whimsical or roleplay-rich campaign. Drawing inspiration from the real-world breed, a Scottish Fold cat is known for its distinctive forward-folding ears, wide round eyes, and calm, affectionate demeanor. In the world of D&D, these traits can be reinterpreted through a magical lens.

A Scottish Fold cat could be a wizard’s companion or a familiar obtained via the Find Familiar spell, particularly favored by spellcasters who value subtlety, quiet companionship, and creatures that exude an aura of gentleness. Such a cat might be associated with the School of Enchantment or Divination, silently observing the world with an eerie intelligence behind its golden eyes. Its folded ears might be said to protect it from psychic interference or enhance its sensitivity to magical vibrations. A DM might allow it to have a slightly modified stat block, perhaps granting advantage on Perception checks involving hearing or minor resistance to psychic damage, in exchange for slight reductions elsewhere to keep balance.

In feywild-themed campaigns, the Scottish Fold could be a minor fey creature itself, posing as a simple domestic cat while hiding an ancient and watchful presence. Some adventurers might even believe these cats are cursed elves, transformed as punishment or protection, offering cryptic guidance or glimpses of forgotten memories in dreams. Their quiet purring could carry subtle enchantments, inducing calm, sleep, or brief trances in those who listen too closely.

Alternatively, a Scottish Fold might appear as a familiar to a shapeshifted trickster archfey or celestial in disguise, serving as both spy and guide. In this role, its understated appearance masks a deeper purpose—watching, waiting, and occasionally intervening with purrs that nudge fate ever so slightly.
