The Electric Sheep is a peaceful herbivore that has a very effective way to defend themselves against would-be predators.
An electric sheep looks like any sort of ordinary white sheep, save for the color of their wool, which ranges in color from a very light 'fluffy' pink, through light purple to light blue, via light green to a very bright light yellow. All electric sheep of any particular flock have the same color wool.
Sages speculate that the electric sheep is the work of an insane transmuter with a very twisted sense of humor.

Combat:
Electric Sheep are usually non agressive creature, but if they are attacked, the would be predators have a very nasty surprise instore for them.
Lightning Bolt (Sp): Once every 1d4 rounds an electric sheep can release a very powerful electrical discharge similar to that of a Lightning Bolt spell, this is a reflex action only used if a member of the electric sheeps flock is attacked. The bolt has a range of 200' and deals 2d8 points of damage, a reflex save (DC: 13) halves the damage.
Electricity Subtype: Electricity Immunity, the creature recives a -10 penalty to saves against acid.

Now only one question remains, do androids really dream of electric sheep? :D

Comments are as always welcome...

Heh, interesting.

If it was based off of the Phillip K. Dick novel, wouldn't it be a Construct though? But I'm assuming it isn't, and that it's just a joke. Is there an electricity subtype?
 

There is now, apparently.

This, frighteningly enough, was an actual Pokemon. It's also frightening that I know this.

Demiurge out.
 

DRT: The reference to 'Do androids dream of Electric sheep' (filmed as blade runner, one of my favourite movies btw.) was a small joke.

Demi: Yes that is frightening you know that, cause I had no idea.
 


PC1: man, (obviously trying to gain sympathy from the DM) ... this sucks, I didn't know we'd have to keep track of food and water!

PC2: yeah, come on dude, give us a break?

DM: (passing his bluff check), okay okay. Looking down into the valley you notice a small flock of sheep, say about 30.

PC's: MUTTON time!

.................

okay, so the fluff is weak, but the idea is great ... starving PC's, lonely sheep, ... and I think there's going to be a barbecue :D
 

Bulak: Anyone may use my creatures/templates as they see fit, short of publishing them without my consent (which is very hard to get.)

Wolf: That was kinda the point, as the PC's would never expect a sheep to fire of a lightning bolt... :D

Of course. I'll just use it in my campaign. :)
