Flittericks/Flitterick

Flittericks are small creatures that come from Lumberjack Folklore. They are believed to be an odd form of flying squirrel. They are noted for being able to move so fast they’re impossible to avoid. They can hit hard enough to kill another creature, but also kill themselves in the process.
