SPECIAL ABILITIES

Dweomer Leap (Su)

When a dweomercat cub is targeted by a spell or within the area of effect of a spell, it can, as an immediate action, choose to teleport to a square adjacent to the spell’s caster, effectively appearing mid-leap and aimed toward the caster. This ability takes effect regardless of whether or not the spell overcomes the dweomercat cub’s spell resistance. If it chooses, the dweomercat cub can immediately make a full attack against the spell’s caster as though pouncing. Using this ability does not provoke an attack of opportunity. If there is no safe space adjacent to the caster—or if the dweomercat cub’s chooses—the dweomercat cub can forgo using this ability.

ECOLOGY

Environment any forest
Organization solitary or ambush (1–3 dweomercats and 2–12 dweomercat cubs)

Dweomercat Cubs as Familiars

Attracted to flashy displays of magic and the strange powers inherent in a bond between a magic-user and her familiar, a dweomercat cub might find its taste for magic and adventure satisfied in the service of a particularly whimsical or ostentatious arcane spellcaster. A spellcaster with the Improved Familiar feat can acquire a chaotic neutral dweomercat cub at 7th level or higher. Should the spellcaster settle into a life of research and predictability for a span of months, the dweomercat cub familiar might take to wandering off and, eventually, might not return—deliberately severing the master-familiar bond and freeing the spellcaster to summon a new familiar.
