I recently switched to playing an Eldritch Disciple. As my 9th level feat, I took Obtain Familiar, but have not actually picked a familiar. Any recommendations for what I should take?

Patron Gift - Protective Aura
Invocations
Baleful Utterance
Otherworldly Whispers
Dark One's Own Luck
Fell Flight
I'm boosting Know (Arc), Know (Religion), and Know (The Planes), though I have at least 1 point in every Knowledge skill in the PHB. Also several points in Concentration, Spellcraft, and UMD. Not a lot of social skills since this game is mostly murder hobo. However, after the next session, the DM is starting a new campaign that will focus more on story/plot and is letting us rebuild (with a huge cut in starting stats and wealth). With the rebuild, I will put points into socials.
I've found that I like playing support characters, so I built towards that. I mostly focus on buff/debuff, with some BFC. I don't cast spells that do HP damage (though ability damage is fine). His only weapon is his Eldritch Blast.
Any book is valid, but Dragon Mag is probably out unless there is a link to the familiar/creature somewhere online that I can show my DM.
3.X only. No Pathfinder.
