Philosoraptor

Description
Over a millennium ago the velociraptor known as the Philosoraptor was just a simple animal. A wizard started experimenting on it to find a way of creating stronger, smarter familiars. The experiment succeeded in making it highly intelligent, but unintentionally also made it immortal. It outlived its master and was then free to pursue its own desires, even though it inherited its master’s thirst for knowledge.

Now it leads a pack of normal Velociraptor and lives in an abandoned temple. It is now a sage knowledgeable in many study areas. It is willing to share what it knows in return for obscure information it wants in its collection. Humanoids may find it hard to deal with. Despite its intelligence, it thinks in animal terms and lacks a true morality.

The Philosoraptor looks like a slightly larger than average velociraptor with mottled brownish-green skin and yellowy quills on the back of its head.
