Notes

• Without its familiar equipment, this familiar does not gain weight normally; instead, it gains weight by consuming candy, according to the function (weight = pieces of candy consumed^1/2).
• Occasionally, you will receive the message Happy Holidays! after your regular familiar message. This seems to act like the Cocoabo's Limit Break.
• With its familiar equipment, the Stocking Mimic gains weight through combat as well by getting candy from the equipment.
• Brother Corsican's Blessing and other familiar experience gains do not work -- only candy does.
• This familiar does not have the standard weight cap of 20 pounds (appears to have a cap of 100 pounds).
• The familiar equipment does not drop in the Arena, but rather at the end of combat, if it has no other equipment equipped (appears to be limited to once per day). The familiar will immediately equip the bag of many confections.
• The following items qualify as candy:

All Candy Hearts (including black)

All gum (tamarind, lime-and-chile, pickle-flavored, jabañero, explosion, stick of "gum", and bazookafish)

Most Halloween treats, excluding candied kobold and fruitfilm

spooky sap

breath mint

crazy little Turkish delight

licorice garrote

candy knuckles

candy kneecapping stick

white chocolate chips

honey-dipped locust

sugar shard

Angry Farmer candy

ribbon candy

cotton candy pillow

sugar shards

Anything that falls from the bag of many confections
