Cats have a climb of +6, and a jump of +10.
Elephants have a climb of +10 and a jump of +10. Due their larger size, they can jump higher.

Try having your next party ambushed by elephants leaping at them from trees.


A shadowcast leomand's secure shelter makes for an excellent combat spell.

To say it simpler: why do you think Apple is so popular when every computer that they make can be bought cheaper (and sometimes for less then half) from another company without the fancy apple look and the same internal components?

Because the customers are practicing good risk management. While the computer sold by company X may be just as good as Apple's, it also may not be. Absent of the ability to easily tell the difference between the two, you go with the trusted company, so that you know you get a computer that works.

Computer experts of course, may choose to build their own computer out of parts, as many of my friends do. Why pay for a company to assemble parts for you when the components are easy to match yourself?
