Normal Bats in the Old World are very like those of our own: small, nocturnal flying predators which feed mainly on insects. Some of the larger species skim the surfaces of lakes and ponds, catching fish or frogs. Druidic Priests can have spirit Bats as familiars (profile as listed here, but Int 80) and some spellcasters are able to summon swarms of bats.

Physique[]

Bats can vary from little more than an inch long to just under six inches, with a wingspan from six inches to two feet or more. Colouring is generally black or dark brown.

Alignment[]

Neutral.

Special Rules[]

Bats fly as swoopers, but are almost helpless on the ground. However, they can crawl slowly up trees or walls in order to resume flight. They attack with one bite and, although this is generally too weak to cause injury to humans, there is a 25% chance that it may cause infected wounds. Bats' natural "sonar" allows them to "see" up to 15 yards in the dark and, in the first round of combat, they get a +20 bonus to I - unless attacking in illumination equivalent to daylight.
