Statwise they're yet another weak mob small human-like monster, of which their are PILES in AD&D, such as the Xvart.We'd want to work out what makes them distinct from, say, a Goblin in light armour. Their backstory has some RPG hooks in it but it doesn't mean anything mechanically.Suppose we could give them a "spook people into a trap" ability and make them unusually stealthy. Brownies are so stealthy they're (literally and I mean literally) practically invisible in forests, so it makes sense for a half-brownie to be sneaky, especially with the mention they like to "silently surround their intended victim".Presumably they're pretty small, since they've got "mice" in the name. Brownies are 2 feet tall in AD&D, so I guess they might be between that and a Kobold's 3 feet?  An Orc is 6 feet, but I wouldn't average that with a Brownie's height to make them 4 feet as that's the same as a Goblin, who they are already uncomfortable close to in their stats.Anyhow, I'd better not get too carried away since we have Pine Kindred to finish first!Oh, but I will add that after a night's sleep "Micemite" is definitely my favourite of the proposed names.</blockquote>
