A Pangotherium looks like a grizzly bear with the head, hide, and rather-enlarged claws of a scaly anteater. Its place of origin is uncertain but it is not of this universe, and it is one of several alien creatures whose appearance indicates that a conjuration or summoning spell has gone wrong.

Pangotheria are intelligent animals, with similar cognitive ability to a gorilla. A pangothrium can operate doors and other simple mechanisms, but have no language, at least as humans would understand it. Pangotheria are, however, extremely chaotic and unpredictable. Determine how each one reacts by rolling 3d6. A score of 3-6 means the pangothrium charges; a 7-8 means it attacks; a 9-12 it approaches without attacking; a 13-14 it retreats; a 15-17 it flees, and on an 18 the pangothrium takes an immediate liking to the party and will roll on its back, waiting for its belly to be scratched. In any case, if attacked the pangothrium will certainly retaliate!
