more familiars will be nice, like a few people said, i don't really connect to any to any of the animals there is right now, and i think choosing the familiar is an important part, also it's hard to treat him as actual familiar if you don't like the animal.
my ideas are
Phoenix- most likely chicken + blaze, with an hint of rebirth on a grasper. also i think it should become a full, immortal phoenix only when made familiar, before it should be just some sort of fire chicken able to fly.
Spider- i think the best way to do this is make spiders tameable, but only with a potion of taming (also will make the extremely hard to find golden hearts useful), spiders born to tamed spiders should be untamed, their minds simply cannot love humans without a little magical help.
Rat- silverfish + dog (?), tameable with rotten flesh, should become larger once made familiar
Bat- just bat, maybe tameable with rowan berries, or maybe a vampire bat for vampires (from zombie and bat), giving special vampire bonuses
Hellhound\Multi headed dog- as hagrid and the Greek god of death taught us, multiheaded dogs are very cool and great companions, and if there is something special for vampires, the hellhound will fit great for a wolfish counterpart. (miltiheaded dog is most likely 3 wolves + slime maybe), multidog should become larger once made familiar and his look different.
Carnivorous plant- for them tree hugging hippies. treefyd + critter snare.

Yeah, I agree, but don't forget an other ability the tainted wand has is when infected by flux taint potion effect, it will recharge it self slowly. And standing on fibrous taint will frequently give you the flux taint effect. So if you want a full wand and you have plenty of time, this is the wand for you.
But I would say the most OP wand in this mod is the ars magica witch wood wand, you can technically say it recharges with no cost.

You don't need to completely drain their blood, you just need to drain half of their blood.
And you need to mesmerism them before draining their blood
Hope I helped you

Like they will stand still and turn transparent when you look at them, but they will sneak towards you when your not looking

oh yes, and i love the mantis, but they lack a bi of animations, maybe it can fling its arms when it attacks you instead of like bumping on you...
