Truly a miniature giant space hamster or a common rodent?

Maybe . . .

Or perhaps he's actually the physical manifestation of the third-birthing of Orcus/Tenebrous, forced to serve as a lowly hamster and once again ascend the long hierarchy of the Tanar'ri . . .

With a guy as large as Minsc, I'm willing to take his word for it... Although...
I hear Boo is a real beast in Battle

Maybe Boo needs some stats . . .



Was Boo included in any other Realms CRPGs besides Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn?.

Giant Space Hamster are actually an official part of D&D (see page 28 of Complete book of Gnomes and Halfling)I dont believe theyve ever been stated thou (maybe in the Dragon Lance setting as there assciated with Tinker Gnomes)

Actually Giant Space Hamsters are stat'd, in both Dragonlance and Spelljammer material.

They also play a minor role in the DL 'choose-your-own-adventure' style campaign module, Gnomes 100, Dragons 0. Needless to say, it's one of the Sage's favorite adventures . . .

Of course Giant Space Hamsters have been statted out! My username and sig both come from MC7, the first Spelljammer appendix to the Monstrous Compendium.

A 3.0 conversion can be found here. I found another conversion somewhere else, but I'll be dipped if I can remember where... Also, I wasn't terribly happy with either conversion, because they only did the basic Giant Space Hamster -- they didn't get into the funky breeds like Fire-Breathing Phase Doppelganger Giant Space Hamster...

As I said, Spelljammer material.

As for the stats on another site, it could be Beyond the Moons. I know that both that site, and the one you've provided a link for - Shattered Fractine - regularly share SJ3e material.

Best regards,

All I did was look at the link, Google "Shattered Fractine" and then go from there.

Master Rupert,

haha...I definitely overlooked that. I need to get more sleep. I've been burning this candle at both ends for way too long.

Thank you for the link again!

Best regards.
