Description
This herbivorous species spends most of its time grazing low plant growths such as grass and shrub. It frequently gathers in herds for protection. The male members are equipped with curved horns that they can use to deliver a painful butt attack.
A ram stands 3–4 feet in height and weighs about 50–80 pounds. The statistics for this creature can also be used for the goat, while the Medium statistics can be used for mountain sheep.
Combat
Sheep are cowardly creatures that will flee from an attacker, while clinging together with the remainder of the herd. Males will defend themselves with their horns.
Skills: Rams have a +4 racial bonus on Jump checks. Mountain sheep have a +8 racial bonus on Balance and Jump checks in rugged terrain.
