Do these exist anywhere? I've grown fond of the Takeda Tebaski in one videogame I play, and I'm not really all that fond of horses...don't know why.

I'm also kinda against using dinosaur mounts. I dunno, a dinosaur mount always struck me as something that should be unique rather than something you would mass-equip an army with.

For reference.

These are the Tebaski

These are the Chocobo

So anything good? Or should I just refluff the warhorse or something?

Chocobos are (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theropoda) dinosaurs.

There are terror birds in Fiend Folio, which are basically the same thing as chocobos but real.

Edit: Blegh. Link fixed; thanks The-Mage-King.

There are Axebeaks in Arms and Equipment Guide. Those should work.


Also, Jeff, your link is broken.

Dragon #323 had stats for "Riding Birds" (AKA Chocobos).

Yeah, Dragon 323 is where you wanna go. They are actually specifically stats for Chocobos, there, including Black Chocobos.

What are exactly those "Tebaski"? They seem a mix of bunnies, chickens and megaraptors to me, but I can't find anything on the Net about them.

They're the bird mounts used by the Takeda family in..um...a videogame, whose name I can't say for forum reasons.

Then again given the amount of times I've used the map from the game in a campaign, I think I might be safe, but no risking it.

Um.. I finally got it. Nevermind the game then. Do Tebaski have special abilities? Are they good at jumping? Do they fly? Do they have a powerful shriek that makes enemies cower in fear? This kind of description'd be helpful. Otherwise you can just refluff another biped mount and say that it's a Tebaski.
