<<Are there plans for more advanced familiars in the works? Any chance of getting actual Elementals?Yes, to elementals for sure. They will be your combat type pets. I'm not sure about other familiar types, but if you get them they will probably be more utility types similar to the kind you have now.
There's a big 'pet' project that's being worked on that will cover all types of pets from necro minions to familiars to guardian spirits to companions to starlight spheres to shadow servants to horses, etc.
Last I heard sometime since last summer the GM working on it was working on a modular 'prototype' pet that would have every single ability that a pet could have (e.g. combat, vault capability, location, etc.) and then all that would be needed would be to copy the modules that a give released pet would need. I think he said he had a mostly working combat module and was working on some of the other modules.
Going completely off of memory here.
