These excitable critters can be found just about anywhere except the extreme deserts. They are easily identifiable by the white stripes around their eyes and the white and brown stripes along their sides. They rest of them is a light tan to light brown. Although they can be adventurers, they don’t make the best companions for that type of work. They are constantly on the lookout for anything that they can get their fingers on – coins, other valuables, nuts…you name it! Also, any time they are surprised they have to make a save vs. their constitution or they will go running off in any direction they can (12ft/rd) to get away from whatever surprised them. The effect will last for 2-5 rounds. They prefer to use daggers, short swords, and short bows.
