It's really just James Ohlen's homebrew to tie his work from Bioware into the current rules.

I mean, sure, but WotC also published the book under their label on DMsGuild as a ~$15 charity tie in. If they had enough confidence in it to do that, I see little reason for them not to eventually port it over to Beyond as well like they have with several of their other charity tie-in products.

Sure, it's possible, but that wouldn't make it any more or less "official." The Extra Life stuff is explicitly not fully developed stuff.

Not saying it has to be "official" or "canon", just that I think it's a decent supplement that has a reasonable chance of making it onto Beyond sooner or later, if their decisions to release other Extra Life products on Beyond is anything to go by.

The cute mouse-creature could be a new Guardinal. I mean, Pathfinder invented a few new ones too.

It wouldn't be a new guardinal - it would be the musteval guardinal introduced in 3e. If indeed it is a guardinal (which I hope it is).

But... that is an anthro mouse. A Musteval is, as the name implies, is an anthro weasel.

Hokey Pete that price tag?!?

According to FR wiki Musteval look are Anthro mice with art to back it up.

Musteval

Mustevals were tiny, mouse-like guardinals native to Elysium[1] and the House of Nature.[2] Mustevals looked like 2‑foot-tall (0.61‑meter) humanoid mice. They were agile and rarely stayed still. When dealing with other creatures they often used their change self ability to appear differently.[1]...

That art is from The Book of Exalted Deeds, which describes them as:

"This slim humanoid creature has the elongated snout, tufted ears, and furtive eyes of a ferret. It has slender limbs, white fur covering its body, and pink eyes."

They may have been changed into anthro mice for this edition, but that certainly wasn't the original intention.

Yeah, as I said above, the writer of the wiki apparently went off the picture and never read the original text. So if this is a musteval, the writer here made the same mistake, or even just took the info from the wiki. I mean, it's not a huge deal (the musteval is of 3e vintage and only appeared in print once, so it's not like this is ruining books worth of tradition), just a little weird.

Hokey Pete that price tag?!?

It makes sense in the breakdown: it's a $60 book (though ij three covers) plus a $20 DM screen. That's how WotC values it, but wholesale prices will be available through Amazon soon enough.
