One Fighter/Mu/Cleric in the campaign I am GMing got himself a
'special' familiar.
Oh no! I'm not having a pseudodragon in an Arthurian-like adventure.
           ~~~          ~~~~~~~~~~~~
So I made one up, on the spur of the moment.
I stole the idea from the 'cat-tail' in 'World Out of Time', by Larry Niven.
It has a domestic cat's head, a small feathered serpent's body, but with
bat wings.
Hit points are tiny.
Special defences: high dexterity.
Special attacks: transfixing gaze (a la floating eye in hack)
