ABOUT

Sly and dexterous, fiendish ferrets can be cunning helpers to their friends and a terrible nuisance to their enemies.

Native to hells and demonic planes, these crafty critters have sneaked into many other dimensions (including several they weren’t supposed to go) to have rebellious fun and cause mischief.

Fiendish ferrets love to slink about and pilfer things, and when they get caught, they can rely on their silver tongue to weasel out of trouble.

Pact of the Chain Familiar. At the gamemaster’s discretion, a warlock with a pact of the chain may choose the form of a fiendish ferret for their familiar.

Pranks and Shenanigans. When not bound by a pact with a warlock, or when their warlock is not strict, fiendish ferrets will get into all sorts of mischief. You may roll on the table below to determine what a fiendish ferret might be up to.
