Description
Special Abilities
Familiar The master of a penguin familiar gains a +3 bonus on Swim checks. Toboggan (Ex) On snow- or ice-covered terrain, a penguin can move at a rate of 30 feet by sliding on its belly rather than walking.Many varieties of penguins exist, though most display similar characteristics. The penguin’s most distinctive trait is the tuxedo-style coloration of its feathers, which acts as camouflage while the penguin hunts for fish underwater; the black back and flippers allow the penguin to blend in with the water when viewed from above, while its white belly matches the bright sky when seen from below. A penguin of the most common variety stands roughly 3 feet tall and weighs 70 pounds. Larger species of penguin can grow to heights of 4 feet and weigh as much as 100 pounds.
