This creature is my attempt at re-creating the killer Rabbit of Caerbannog from the movie 'Monty Python and the Holy Grail'. Ya know, the lil white fluffy rabbit guarding the entrance to the cave that is the home of the Legendary Black Beast of Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh. Err... that's no ordinary rabbit! Look at the fangs, man! Um, yeah.
Specs - the Rabbit of Caerbannog (sometimes also known as a Vorpal Bunny) has 18 HD/Beast, and comes with a variety of abilities and immunities. While far from indestructable (even without the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch), this is one tough opponent, and should not be taken lightly. Put this rabbit up against a group of mid-level fighters, and see who comes out on top. 'nuff said.
Limitations - as of the creation date, there's only one skin available for the rabbit model; therefore I am unable to make the rabbit appear true to form and have it displayed as pure white. I'm sure it's possible, but that's currently beyond my meager abilities. Attack animations: there are none for the rabbit in NWN2. This rabbit *should* be flying at its enemies throats, but as of now, it's not possible to create custom animations.
Have fun with this, and the players of whatever PW/mod you put this in that are familiar with the above-mentioned movie will get a nice laugh out of it... *after* they finish healing/resurrecting themselves ;)

7 - Very Good, Deserves a Look. Amusing idea.
By the way, it's relatively easy to edit the c_Rabbit_CL_Body01.dds texture file to create a white rabbit. I did one as a test and thought it looked ok. Let me know if you are interested in seeing my sample.
I am holding off on giving this a grade...but one thing...you need make this into a quest, omg would this be funny. you need to bring back somthing form the cave. what do you think?
Holy cow ! This is a serious encounter indeed. Let's get this game a bit more fun and spam and absurd and bacon and spam and eggs and spam spam spam spam... :] Keep up the good work K2 !
FYI - the rabbit in the movie is pure white. There is no option for a pure white rabbit (yet) in NWN2. Also, there are no attack animations for the rabbit in NWN2. Both of these are something I am looking into, and am collaborating with a couple other people to help out.
10 - A Masterpiece, Genuinely Groundbreaking 9 - Outstanding, a Must Have 8 - Excellent, Recommended to Anyone 7 - Very Good, Deserves a Look 6 - Good, Qualified Recommendation 5 - Fair, Solid yet Unremarkable 4 - Some Merit, Requires Improvements 3 - Poor Execution, Potential Unrealized 2 - Very Little Appeal 1 - Not Recommended to Anyone
