A halfling CAN ride any medium sized creature. It must be willing, and ultimately the anatomy question is up to the DM. For the panther, the halfling could ride it as long as the DM agrees about the anatomy and the panther is willing.
May 12, 2022 · I would totally allow a Halfling or other small PC to ride a giant frog, or almost every animal on this list, they would simply need an exotic saddle. (That’s what exotic saddles are for, and at most it would be an Animal Handling check to stay mounted as per RAW.)
- Kruthik. Advertisement. Start things off right with with a monster that comes complete with both a burrow and a climb speed, for maximum mobility. Sure, it’s normally a voracious, hive-minded creature that’s as interested in burrowing under a dungeon and feasting on whatever passes by as carrying you into battle – but that’s what Handle Animal is for, right?
- Blink Dog. Gnomes riding dogs is already canon. Mastiffs are great mounts, but why not go further and get yourself one that can teleport? The best boys are blink boys and everyone knows it.
- Ambush Drake. The ambush drake, out of House of the Dragon Queen, has an incredible name. But it’s also the perfect mount for a rogue, or anyone else stealthy who wants to scout ahead.
- Metal Wasp. Flying mounts are where it’s at. And these flying creatures, out of Dungeon of the Mad Mage, are perfect candidates if you can manage to wrest control of one.

Gnomes riding dogs is already canon. Mastiffs are great mounts, but why not go further and get yourself one that can teleport? The best boys are blink boys and everyone knows it. Now, can they teleport you with them? That all depends on whether your DM counts you as part of the “equipment they’re wearing or carrying.” Either way, they have advantag...
The ambush drake, out of House of the Dragon Queen, has an incredible name. But it’s also the perfect mount for a rogue, or anyone else stealthy who wants to scout ahead. Halfling assassin? You and your drake can creep into position and benefit from surprise attack. Make your Beastmaster jealous with your ‘technically a dragon’ sneak pal.
Flying mounts are where it’s at. And these flying creatures, out of Dungeon of the Mad Mage, are perfect candidates if you can manage to wrest control of one. Not only do they have a 50ft. fly speed, but they also deliver a poison that, if it reduces a creature’s hit points to 0, doesn’t kill them, but leaves them paralyzed for an hour, even if the...
Okay this one might seem a little more cliche by comparison. But imagine a society of gnomes or halflings that worked out a close relationship with panthers, and suddenly you get a different picture of their society. It even works with kobolds. Panthers add a certain element of danger and the sense that you might see them being ridden into battle a...
