Honey Badgers!


Badger, badger, badger, badger, badger

Mushroom! Mushroom!

Yes the honey badger is a sweet little ball of vicious fury


I get enough honey badgering in real life; I don't need any in my D&D.


Get a regular badger, give it a bonus on saves vs fear in lieu of something else, and you're good to go. :D


LOL! Love it! Agreed! And my next Champions hero as well!

I approve this message.


THanks for sharing that it was awesome!
Now imagine the awesome power of a three honey badger shirt!


In 3.5 my DM created used/allowed summoned creatures to have templates for Squamous (Chaotic) and Axiomatic (Lawful) in addition to the typical Fiendish (Evil) and Celestial (Good) templates.

I was playing a Wizard, and the highlight of my spellcasting career was when we were mid level and locked out of a castle/dungeon full of goblins. We'd already had a number of battles that session, including defeating the boss, it was late, and everyone really just wanted to finish the session and turn in. I cast all of my summon monster spells, down-ranking to 3rd level when necessary, to toss a horde of Squamous Dire Badgers through a window.


What a coincidence... I just read about them on cracked.com :D


That was Awesome!!
I really enjoyed the montage part at the beginning. Small clips of the honey badger attacking various animals FTW. Also, puff adder venom's only effect on them is to force them to take a little nap?!? Thats when you know that you are a bad-a$$.


My new favourite animal forever.


This animal has not the normal version. Every version is the Dire one.

Honey Badgers are stone cold killers. They will eat you right through the pants, without stopping just to get to one bees nest. You see a honey badger you better run like the devil's after you. Because a honey badger is the devil!

I remember when the honey badger made it on Badass of the Week.

I still wince at the excrutiating details of how they've managed to kill full grown lions.

Badgers? We don't need no stinking badgers!


What a cute badass animal - me wants one!

That is cool and all, but I had seen (On a longer show about them) this bit... about the little birds that scout for them.

Honeyguide Bird and the Honey Badger
******************************************************************
It is an example of a "symbiotic relationship".

The Honeyguide bird locates honey in a bees nest but is unable to get to the honey by itself, so it guides the badger to the nest. Having powerful claws, the badger can open the nest with relative ease. They then share the honey together.

* The honey guide bird leads the honey badger to honey nests, which the badger will break open to eat the honey, that then enables the bird to eat a portion of honey for itself.

* The Honey Guide leads the Honey Badger to the bees' nest and the badger rips open the nest and gets the honeycomb and eats some of it. Then the honey guide bird gets the rest.

* The honey guide leads the badger to the beehive because the badger can't see very well but the honey guide is to small to break it open so then the badger breaks the hive open with its paws then they both eat honey. They have a relationship because they need each other to live.

* This answer is cool tell your friends.

* The relationship is mutualism.

* The honey guide bird and the honey badger help each other find honey. the honey guide finds the honey and shows the ratel (honey badger) where it is and the honey badger uses it's sharp claws to tear into the hive.

Awesome!

The honey badger is so badass, he even has his own henchman! Henchbird!

They should totally be in a future bestiary!

To create a honey badger, use dire badger stats, apply the advanced template, and add 20 levels of barbarian.


But... I already have a Tree Octopus!

"a horde of Squamous Dire Badgers through a window."
HA HA HA!
Over the years I have had the good fortune to be owned by a half dozen ferrets. They inspired me to stat up a "Chaos Weasel". Basically a big, bad-ass celestial weasel that is under the effect of something like the 3.5 version of the confusion spell. Summon them, and RUN!

I sure do miss those bitey little monsters!

Yeah, that could work. With 20 levels of barbarian.


Hmm... needs some kind of poison special rule where all any poison ever does is make him tired. Once he's slept it off, he's all ok!

Have to look at Awakening one soon and have it as a cohort...

Nah, it just needs to get the proper stats. Con 50 sounds about right.

You know badgers are giant weasels right.
