Special
Larger Form
Up to 3 times per day, a gerbalaine may magically assume a larger form, growing to approximately halfling size. It is this form that gives the above statistics when pressed for a fight, although a gerbalaine is more likely to run away than fight.
Special
Natural Mouse-Size Form
When in its natural mouse-size form, a gerbalaine has effectively only 1 HP, but is very difficult to hit (AC 22).
Special
Evasion
A gerbalaine who saves (with halfling bonuses) against an area-of-effect damaging spell takes no damage, and even if the save fails takes only half damage.
Special
Thief Skills
A gerbalaine's skill with devices is comparable to a 10th-level Thief.

Very small fey beings with mouse-like appearance, skilled tinkerers
Gerbalaines are a race of very small fey beings. It has a mouse-like appearance, and because of its size it is often mistaken for a common field mouse unless examined closely. A gerbalaine is a tinkerer, using small bits of materials gathered to fashion its home; it often builds within walls, under floors, or otherwise right under the noses of big folk.
