I was doing something similar, but only with items since Familiars tend to screw me up, and I sit in an area for an hour with nothing popping up |D

@Lynncrow - Love, Love, Love this idea. I need to grind and get some good loot, but was lacking motivation. I'm so tired of training up dragons in the Kelp Beds. I'm going to start now and see how far I can get before I need to go to sleep for the night. Thank you for the fun idea.
