as someone else suggested, change the damage to 1d3-2, 134-2 for the Claws and Bite. i would up the lynx's dexterity to 17... cats are cool like that

I also like kitties. But the thread title is wrong- the lynx isn't a new animal, its from the 1st edition monster manual, and speaks its own language, leading to the accompanying cartoon: "What do you mean, we've got to talk to this lynx? The last monster we talked to ate 1/2 the party!!"

That's the "Giant Lynx" not the regular sized one.

We didn't get official D&D stats for an ordinary Lynx until 2003, in Races of Faerûn.
