BLOAT
No. Enc.: 1(1d12)
Alignment: Neutral
Movement: 150’ (50’)
Armor Class: 8
Hit Dice: 12

Damage: 1d6
Save: L6
Morale: 7 (9 for battle conditioned)
Hoard Class: none

Despite it's ancestral human origins bloats have lost all intelligence. Bloats must be well fed or they can be distracted by food.
Wild packs of Bloats can quickly consume rations (a weeks worth in 2-7 rounds)and are even able to eat while slapping and kicking away any trying to stop them.
Bloats make almost no noises other then gentle cooing sounds.
A bloat can carry 400 pounds and move at full speed, a max load is about 600 pounds.

Morale: 5
Hoard Class: none

Long bodied horses with many legs covered in an armadillo-like carapace. They can carry up to 800 pounds and can easily accommodate as many riders as possible within that weight limit. They reflect back mental attacks against them 50% of the time (being unaffected by the attacks themselves when they do so). They don’t make very good war steeds being prone to run away from a fight.

Giant horned rabbits. If caught young and trained they make fair riding beasts, pack animals and war steeds (called a war-jack). They can carry up to 400 pounds. Jackalopes can leap 60’ horizontally or 30’ vertically. Jackalope riders must tie themselves into the saddle or they are very likely to fall off (2 rounds to get into the saddle and to dismount), bare-back jackalope riding is incredibly difficult and short-lived. Energy attacks reflect harmlessly off their colorful hides 33% of the time.
