THE CRAWLER'S COMPANIONpatch notes for the apocalypse

Enchanted Mongoliensis Saddle

First seen: Book 3, Chapter 7

Donut's prize from her own Platinum fan box, adjusted to fit a Cat species rider: a blue and red, tassel-covered saddle with no straps, reins, or other proper riding gear, just a seat and a pommel. Magically affixes itself to a Mongoliensis, turning it into a mount, and grants the rider +15% offensive spell damage and Anti-Piercing Resistance, while the mount itself gets +20% Constitution plus +20% melee damage whenever the saddle is occupied. Clicks onto Mongo over his loud, bucking protest; nobody attempts to actually ride him yet.
