Raccoons are well known for the black "mask" of fur on their faces, making them look like stereotypical burglars. They live up to this reputation by cleverly finding their way into food stores and the like, using their paws almost like hands. Raccoons are found in a variety of climates and eat a wide range of foods (as any camper or farmer will attest). Raccoon familiars grant a +2 bonus to Pick Pockets checks to their masters.
