  • Umbral Cat (3.5e Monster)
rdfs:comment
  • Summary::Umbral cats are small, generally harmless creatures native to the Plane of Shadow. Hardy and elusive, they are named not for their likeness to domesticated cats, but for their cat-like behavior. Umbral cats are inquisitive to a fault, often playful and even more often lazy. They most often arrive on the material plane having hitched a ride on an unsuspecting adventurer traveling through the Plane of Shadow via the shadow walk spell. Umbral Cats are weightless unless taking solid form, in which case they never weigh more than a pound.

  • Summary::Umbral cats are small, generally harmless creatures native to the Plane of Shadow. Hardy and elusive, they are named not for their likeness to domesticated cats, but for their cat-like behavior. Umbral cats are inquisitive to a fault, often playful and even more often lazy. They most often arrive on the material plane having hitched a ride on an unsuspecting adventurer traveling through the Plane of Shadow via the shadow walk spell. Umbral Cats are weightless unless taking solid form, in which case they never weigh more than a pound. The true shape of an Umbral Cat is not known, they take whatever form they wish, though on the material plane the most common forms are that of a small cat, rat, or weasel. Formed from pure shadow essence, they are incorporeal on the material plane, but can manifest themselves for brief periods. Doing so appears to be tiresome for them, and manifesting for more than a few minutes at one time is practically unheard of. Umbral Cats are more intelligent than animals, and are prized by some magic practitioners as familiars, as they make excellent spies and scouts. Umbral Cats cannot speak, and it is not known if they communicate with each other telepathically.
