Goat Stats?

[ConanMK]

I have a Druid PC who wants a goat for his animal companion...

Anyone have goat stats?

Aparently there was a "Mountain Goat" in Dungeon #83... anyone got that handy?

 

[Pinotage]

I know there's a Dire Goat in Tome of Horrors 1. The only goat I can find is in Dangerous Denizens from Kingdoms of Kalamar. It's not OGL, though.

Don't have anything official... but here's what I'd do:

Goat
N Medium Animal
Init +2, Senses Listen +5, Spot +5, low-light vision, scent
---------------------
AC 13 (+2 Dex, +1 natural), touch 12, flat-footed 11
hp 5 (1d8+1 HD)
Fort +3, Refl +4, Will +1
---------------------
Speed 40 ft.
Melee gore -5 (1d4)*
BAB +0, Grp +0
---------------------
Str 10, Dex 15, Con 13, Int 2, Wis 12, Cha 10
Feats Alertness
Skills Balance +6, Listen +5, Spot +5

Skills: Goats receive a +4 racial bonus on all Balance checks.
* A goat is a noncombatant herbivore, and thus receives a -5 penalty on its attack rolls.

I haven't compared it to any MM animals, but -- unless there's some glaring error I missed -- I think it's preety close to a goat

BTW, this was written with the Saanen goat breed in mind.

I would just go ahead and stat one out by comparing it to other similar animals. For example, a wolf is similar but is faster and more cunning:

Goat:
Medium Animal
2D8 +4 (13 HP)
Init +1
Speed 40 ft. (8 squares)
AC 14 (+1 dex, +3 natural) Touch 11, FF 13
BAB/Grapple +1/+3
Attack Hoof +3 melee (1d6+1)
Full attack Hoof +3 melee (1d6+1)
Space/Reach 5/5
Special Attacks None
Special Qualities: Scent?
Saves Fort +5, Ref +4, Will 1
Abilities: Str 13, Dex 13, Con 15, Int 2, Wis 12, cha 6

Anyways you get the idea...

Don't get me started on Dire Goats!

My PCs absolutely loathe them after almost being TPK'd by a fully buffed dire goat animal companion. (The druid didn't last 3 rounds, but his goat... )

Aparently their character is based off of a magic card where a halfling is riding a goat. (incidently the druid is a halfling and uses the goat as a mount).

 

[Thurbane]

The Book of Familiars (Troll Lord Games) has stats for a goat, p.146.

You mean a kithkin from the newest set?

I know that they had stats for hear animals and goats in 2ed ed and hackmaster.
