Homebrew Flain Species Details

As a Orc clan surrounds a party of what looks like three people, the biggest Orc, who is straddled on his dire wolf mount leads the ambush. 

As the battle begins none of the Orcs notice the bat sized creature, the Flain, a grave mistake.

"Watch out!" Zephryella the Elf shouts toward Sir Vox, a Human fighter, as Jefrezal is flying above their heads. Seeing as how this was his first battle he had no idea what to do. So he found an opening in the fight and flew to the ground. Burrowing was one of his specialties. He hid underground as loud thuds and shaking were making him shake too. As the loud thudding and battle cries came to a halt, Jefrezal poked his head out the tunnel expecting to see his three buddies, that he had met yesterday. But nay, what he saw was the Orcs carrying the unconscious bodies of his newfound teammates. "Uh, oh" he says to himself, "I gotta fix this." Jefrezal whips out his spell book to see what he can use.

As the Orcs made their way back to camp, unbeknownst to them Jefrezal was following them, making a plan. Finally Jefrezal gains enough courage to take on the foul Orcs and sneakily came into range. Jefrezal was now uttering magical words, of his language, an waving a small trinket back and fourth. One of the Orcs says "does you 'ear some'thin" and the other Orc sits for a bit and says "yeah me think I heared some'thin too." And every one of the orcs fall to the ground shouting in extreme pain. As Jefrezal finishes the magical script, the orcs shrivel up and turn into frogs. Jefrezal heaves out three healing potions from Zephryella's medicine bag and struggles to open the bottle and pour it in each of their mouths.

As the party begins to wake up, Jefrezal says "quick, their not gonna be like that for much longer." At camp the group is sitting around the fire, discussing what happened, and I ask Jefrezal, "you did that? all by yourself?" Jefrezal nods, and Sir vox replies, "were gonna have a mighty fine adventure with Jefrezal the wizard."
