Subject: Tabaxi (FF) as a PC/NPC

  I was just curious it anybody has had a tabaxi major NPC or PC.  They
are a humanoid feline race (about 2HD) from the Fiend Folio, for those of
you who don't know.  (Yes, the FF is generally a waste -an Orc by any other
name-, but it has some good entries and NO, DON'T ASK TO BUY MINE.)
   Anyways, a player wanted an unusual character about 2 years back.
He was a hard-core roleplayer and really developed the philosophy of his
PCs.  He left our group later but the PC turned out to be pretty decent.
  Recently, another gamer (more of a roll-player) wanted to start up a
Tabaxi thief, and I agreed.  I mentioned that tabaxi as a race, being
large bipedal cats, would have a very good dex (I ruled +2 dex, +1 str
+1 con, -1 int, -1 wisdom, -2 char) but would have trouble interacting
with other races.  Since this character is a 'spy' type of thief, it
works out.
     So far, so good for the campaign.  Anybody else DM or play one of
these creatures?  I'm not sure if T$R would be including tabaxi in a
list of possible PC/NPC races.  I heard that they are revamping FF, so
maybe I should wait.
 
Just MHO.
D.H.     :)
 
P.S. Before anyone flames me for dropping the PC 1 point in Wis
because "cats are naturally cunning",  I'd ask if anyone has seen too  many
cats that aren't self-centered, impulsive and impatient as hell.
PPS (Str has a 18:50 max, since tabaxi aren't bulky and dex a 19 max. since
20 is too high for a starting PC.
