Pseudodragon (familiar)
From NWNWiki
Pseudodragons resemble miniature red dragons, but in looks alone. They do not commit evil acts; in fact they dislike evil acts very much. They do gain the power of fire like their large cousins starting at the master's 5th level.
Pseudodragons resemble miniature red dragons, but are red-brown in color rather than deep-red. They have fine scales, sharp horns and teeth and a barbed tail. Their cat-like personality makes them seem arrogant and demanding. They are often found in the company of arrogant and demanding wizards.

[edit] Special abilities
Pseudodragon familiars are immune to paralysis and have spell resistance that increases with their master's level. They have true seeing and can use a cone of fire except at the lowest levels. At later levels, their natural weapon (their stinger) gets an enhancement bonus. Their stinger improves to 1d6 base damage at level 35, then to 1d8 at level 40.

[edit] Notes
- Added in the expansion packs.
- At level 21, all skills but hide drop 7 ranks for unknown reasons.
- Unlike most BioWare creatures, this creature's tag is not always its ResRef in all caps — at levels 1 to 20, its tag begins with "X1" instead of "X0".
