Zoogs are a species of spiteful, vicious beasts with a strong connection to the manifestation of dreams. While naturally vegetarian, some have gained an affinity for sentient flesh.

Appearance

A zoog has luminous eyes, a rat's tail, simian appendages, and tentacles extending from a mole-like nose. They often emit a chattering sound.

Ecology

Zoogs prefer to live as small family units in the shadows, particularly in regions where the dreams of its inhabitants come true more often than normal.

Zoogs usually eat plants and fungi, but some acquired a taste for the flesh of intelligent beings. They also hate and eat kittens but are often unable to take down adult felines, who immediately chase and pounce on them. The source of this animosity is unknown.

Society

Families of zoogs that work together and locate enough food to thrive can quickly grow to large numbers and swarm their prey.

Abilities

Zoog eyes can emit a light that causes magic effects to glow, and their claws can make contact with otherwise incorporeal creatures. They are intelligent beings that can speak and understand Aklo and Common, as well as to animals.
