Atlas Hamster (3.5e Monster)

"Abner, that fat mouse is making off with the supplies."

"Thet's Sandy's new pet. Says it ain't no mouse, it's a Hamster.  Named it Charles."

"Whut kinda name is that fer a mouse?"

Atlas Hamsters for once appear to be a completely normal mutation of nature (i.e. no caster will admit to making them). Originally the scourge of the continent, the super powered Hamsters spread quickly, ruining crops and grain stores. But an enterprising farmer found out they were easily trainable, and as long as they were well fed they were better pack animals than mules once trained.
