Cattypillar

This fluffy six-legged feline faerie critter is a wily—albeit lower rung—predator that dwells primarily in forests. With an ability to teleport several feet away, they are highly feared by forest boggles, faeries, and other tiny creatures. However, they are often tamed by the very same creatures as pets and mounts. Gnomes, witches, and warlocks also have an affinity for cattypillar familiars whose antennae are especially attuned to perceive the furtive patter of approaching threats. Names: Pouncer, Shadow Lily, Mr. Snarls, Wuzzel

abilities

Faerie Antennae

A cattypillar's antennae possesses a kind of danger sense, able to detect the presence of other creatures. All Sneak Checks in their presence suffer Disadvantage.

Blink

Attacks against cattypillars suffer Disadvantage because they can teleport anywhere Nearby at will. This makes it impossible to them unless they are at 1- ENTANGLE Courage, at which point they lose the ability to Blink.

vulnerabilities

Cattypillars are easily distracted by little toys, insects, and other Small and Tiny prey.

combat

Unless they are a witch's familiar or the pet of someone nasty, cattypillars never attack Big humanoids in the wild. However, hungry cattypillars love going after boggles, quortles, and other Small creatures (they know better not to attack gnomes). They use Blink to claw and avoid incoming attacks. But cattypillars are not ones to fight toe to toe in a slugfest, and blink up a tree if bested.
