Eberron - Rising from the Last War

Dinosaurs

Dinosaurs are widespread on Eberron, particularly

in Q'barra, the Talenta Plains, Xen'drik, and Argon­

nessen. Smaller dinosaurs are the rule in Q'barra

and the Talenta Plains, including varieties commonly

used by Talenta halflings as mounts.

Clawfoot

Clawfoot dinosaurs are two-legged saurians with sharp

teeth and toe claws that resemble deadly sickles. They

are imposing creatures, about the size of a tall human,

and are fierce enough to take down even larger prey.

In the wild, an untrained clawfoot can easily hold its

own in combat, but they are even fiercer when hunting

in packs. Their instinct for pack structure has made

these dinosaurs a traditional war mount for the hal­

flings of the Talenta Plains, with clawfoots quickly and

eagerly responding to training and control.

Pack Tactics. The clawfoot has advantage on an attack roll

against a creature if at least one of the clawfoot's allies is within

S feet of the creature and the ally isn't incapacitated.

Pounce. If the clawfoot moves at least 20 feet straight toward
a creature and then hits it with a claw attack on the same turn,
that target must succeed on a DC 11 Strength saving throw or
be knocked prone. If the target is prone, the clawfoot can make
one bite attack against it as a bonus action.

ACTIONS

Multiattack. The clawfoot makes two attacks: one with its bite

and one with its claws.

Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target.
Hit: 7 (ld8 + 3) piercing damage.

Claws. Melee We apon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target.
Hit: 7 (ld8 + 3) slashing damage.

Fastieth

FASTIETH

Fastieth are human-sized, two-legged saurians with

large eyes, brightly colored and patterned scales, and

strong legs. They are the most common mounts of the

halflings of the Talenta Plains, bred for speed. Although

too small to bear larger riders, a fastieth can carry a hal­

fling with light gear easily and at a good pace. Fastieths

are typically stubborn creatures, so specimens with an

even temperament are prized among the Talenta tribes.

Being herbivores, fastieths prefer to flee rather than

fight. However, even though not trained for battle, they

can deliver a vicious bite if pressed.
