The Remember Bird
These birds come in 3 varieties(detailed below) but they all share the following. The bird will present a small token of what it is going to convey(the token will be directly related for the coming vision).This token(if held) will give a very brief flash insight in the brain of the holder.Their origin is lost to time. If speak w animals is cast the chirping will be revealed as"Take this Please!"i The Common Remember Bird reveals insight about the past. For example it will give a view of a power king if you were in the ruins of his city Or maybe seeing ones grandmother you never met.
The Uncommon Remember Bird reveals the present. You might see the throne room of a noble you should see, Or maybe what your mother is up to.
The Rare Remember Bird will reveal the future. Not a possible future but the definite future. It will reveal an enemy(perhaps showing a weakness) Or you grown up son, who looks a lot like you
In all cases the visions are crystal clear, but fragmented
other than all of this, it is a just a small bird
DMs NOTE These can be used to advance a plot or foreshadowing or to advance the player's back story

Claw Scion
the Scions appear as mighty Male African Lions made of living ivory, with souls as white as their claws. There home is an angelic plane far from any trouble. They often roam the 9 Hells, destroying evil souls. They are Cosmic Friends of good and Implacable Foes of evil.
The lions are drawn to one sided good vrs evil battles, fangs salivating for the death of their dark enemies. In particular they abhor undead and liches, especially ne that have made multiple returns from the grave.
So great! Let's get them to clean up the universe, not so fast. They are incredibly lazy, mimicking their early cousins. They are also far more interested in hunting females than devils.. It is hard to catch their attention as they are not very bright and flighty, but if you can get hem on your side, victory is a near certainty.

Demonhunt Fox HD 2-4 AC Chain other basic stats =wolf image gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=409752i This new creature has just been set lose on our world by a well meaning deity. They are a 2 edged sword. Released in an area haunted by undead, at first they did as they had been instructed by the nature god, destroy said undead. It worked for a while but after several generations they began to prey on the local fauna and domestic animals, they seem to really like chicken. Attempts by authorities to transplant them to other evil haunted areas have been met by limited success and efforts are continuing. Formally keeping to the deep woods they were released into now they are roaming far and wide. Due to thei much higher AC, the foxes are a threat to the indigenous wolves. The locals have shown remarkable restraint in dealing with them but a few locals and foxes have been killed in skirmishes. The DF is and makes an outstanding pet for a druid or ranger They will always attack devils, deamons and undead ferociously gaining a second attack, both are treated as a +3 magic weapon vrs these foes.(including to hit and damage.

Flamelings
Flameings are only encountered as a summoned battle creature. Scholars are unsure of why this is, with them not encountered on the elemental plane of fire. Having only one HD( 12" tall), it is quite small for a 2nd Level summoning. The key is that they stick around until killed, with no maximum duraion. It is not uncommon for mages to summon a number equal to their Int , to guard the mage's home. Leaving them to their own will can be a costly mistake as they are very destructive, stting fires at any chance they get.
Summon Flameling wiz 2 casting time 10 min. Material component: fire pit and 25 Gp in costly incense. as noted above , you can summon Number equal to your Int(each spell will only summon one AC=Plate, dam D8, Imune to fire takes double damage from water or cold, air or fire spells add another HD for 5 min.

800Lb Raccoon
These dungeon dwellers are notable for their cunning and ferocity. A rather stupid(for a ) mage created them as guardians of his abode and they promptly ate him. They are 50% resistant to magic and attack in a whirlwind of extremely high damage attacks. They are fond of raiding hobbit dens and are rather good burrowers.

Giant Sloth
about the size of a war horse, This omnivore is as fast as a Pegasus with a 4d6 bite ac 9 10 hit die, What makes they truly remarkable is the rib meat is +2 Prime Rib, they are being hunted to extinction, but the druids might have something to say about that.

The Big Picture
I think the way to go w this is to play it for laughs. Cleaning the stalls, chasing the Blink Dogs. Keeping the sloths from the dinner table, all in all a light hearted romp is called for.

Tor, the Androshinx scholar
Tor is just miserable. The ship is being constantly being attacked by gynoshinxs looking for love. All he wants to do is read his books. What is worse is that the guards are starting to realize that he is all the gynos want so they don't have to fight them. He is bored and lonely, once in a while being visited by teleporting mages seeking a bit of lore from him. Theyy are only interested i their missions and rarley relive his boredom for long. He gets new books, scrolls and cash in exchange for hi knowledge. He has a prized magic item (dm's choice for it's identity) that he will happily part with to a friendly soul or someone who fights of several female attacks.

More dangerous than a balrog. Maybe rename them "Greater Balrog" Sounds more like the cartoon Tasmanian Devil.
