Demon Mouse is actually a misnomer, as there is absolutely nothing demonic about them. They were simply created by Shadras, a wizard of some renowned, and friend to Galathrax. She used magic to twist the form of some mice, just to see what they would do. This small, furry creature somewhat resembles a rat, but has horns and wings for gliding. These docile rodents thrive just about anywhere, where they eat mostly nuts, berries, and small insects.

Combat: Demon Mouse (Mice) are extremely timid and run at the first sight of danger, biting or ramming only when cornered.

Skills: Demon Mice have a +8 bonus racial bonus on Balance. A Demon Mouse uses its Dexterity modifier instead of its Strength modifier for Climb checks.

Demon Mice As Familiars: A Demon Mouse may be selected as a familiar. It grants its master a +3 bonus on balance checks, but also incurs a -1 penalty to any form of fear the character may face, whether by spell, or by not.
