    "Whats wrong Bert? It's just sheep."

    "Abner...the time has come to tell you why I don't like sheep. Just as soon as we climb that tree."

    Rams are magically enhanced domestic sheep. They were meant to look like harmless sheep on purpose. In reality they have incredibly powerful legs that can propel them at tremendous speeds. They are also stubborn, easily excited, and virtually untrainable. Worthless as livestock, as they are too hard to control, they make good guards if you can buy their loyalty. Exactly why they were made is anyone's guess, as it's assumed the territorial little monsters killed their creator not long after being made. They do make the lives of local farmers more interesting though.

    Ram (Ex): The Ram adds an additional 1d4 damage to it's head butt attack for every 10 ft. it moves while attacking during a charge (maximum of +10d4).

    Burst of Speed (Ex): The Ram can increase it's land speed to 100 ft every 1d4 rounds, but only if it moves in a straight line.

    Combat: Rams open with a charge before running away. So they can charge again. They love whacking people with their head from long distances. They especially love ramming into unaware people.

    "Good evening, and welcome to Mutual of Gnomeahaw's Wild Kingdom! As always, I'm your host Harlan Jergens! Today on Wild Kingdom Jim will...wait this looks familiar, didn't we do these already?"

    Never Turn Your Back

    "No sir. Those were Bighorn Sheep, these are Rams. Entirely different creators. Allegedly."

    "Now that you mention it, they aren't as big."

    "They're just as vicious though. Maybe even more so."


    High Speed Terrors

    "How are they special Jim?"

    "Apparently their heads are nigh well invulnerable, and they are stupefyingly fast. Bad combination."
