Winged Animal (D&D Creature)

Unofficial rules compendium

Winged animals are variations of normal animals that have wings and can fly. Their origin tends to be in remote and magical locales. Often bred as pets for magicians and the rich, winged animals are hard to breed but fetch excellent prices as pets and potential familiars.

Winged animals are no more intelligent than normal animals of their type, and they take to training similarly.

The cost of a winged animal is generally ten times the cost of an ordinary animal of its type.
