Background & Description

Size: S (1/2' long)
When Armageddon came, many plants and animals either died or adapted. The Flying Squirrel is one of those that adapted to the changing surroundings. Losing thier normal diet. The Squirrels mutated into carnivorous predators. The hunted became the hunters, and woe be to any being or creature that stumbles into their habitat. Even Grens are cautious when traversing through woodlands populated by these predators.
Flying Squirrels "fly" by means of loose folds of skin on the inside of their fore and rear legs. In fact, they can only glide and cannot gain altitude once they have jumped. Their range is 5 feet for every foot of altitude from which they jump (usually a tree). They attack only when they have 2 to 1 odds or better. In their lair, a tree top nest, there can occasionally be found items of value; gems, coins or other such items that are bright and shiney. Thus, they could never have armor, most weapons, etc. Treasure is incidental only.
Converted from TSR's Monster Manual II.

I had a lot of fun using these on my players. I know they are not mega monsters, but something about a swarm of cuddly squirrels ambushing the group from the trees was very disconcerting to them. B.B.
