Description

A Pangotherium looks like a grizzly bear with the head, hide, and rather-enlarged claws of a scaly anteater. Its place of origin is uncertain but it is not of this universe, and it is one of several alien creatures whose appearance indicates that a conjuration or summoning spell has gone wrong.

Pangotheria are intelligent animals, with similar cognitive ability to a gorilla. A pangotherium can operate doors and other simple mechanisms, but has no language, at least as humans would understand it. Pangotheria are, however, extremely chaotic and unpredictable. Determine how each one reacts by rolling 3d6.

3–6The pangotherium charges.
7–8It attacks.
9–12It approaches without attacking.
13–14It retreats.
15–17It flees.
18It takes an immediate liking to the party and will roll on its back, waiting for its belly to be scratched.

In any case, if attacked the pangotherium will certainly retaliate!
