Does Boo really have any special powers... Is he really a miniatyre gigant space hamster?

------------------
"No!" shreiked Tyrion. Though the sword felt heavy as a fallen tree he lifted it. He saw the deamon look up, astonished. He brought down the blade with the awesome majestic power of a falling thunderbolt. The burning blade caught the deamon right in the centre of its forehead. The deamon's head fell apart under the force of the impact. The deamon N'kari sank to its knees, dead.

Long ago, I posted an interview with the guy that invented the pair.
I cannot find it in the archives,,,but I will give a synopsis.
HE said that Minsc had suffered a blow to the head, he found this caravan, and saw boo for the first time, and the guy, realizing that Minsc was a little mentally challenged told him a grand tale of this creature. Minsc believed it, and bought the hampster off of the guy. As far as the creator is concerned, Boo is a regular hampster.
BUT, in a D&D guide for Halflings and Gnomes, it made a comment (only one reference, mind you) of the existance of Miniturized Giant Space Hampsters.

Heh, yeah. Boo is Minsc's animal companion. Absrud that Valgyar doesnt have one. He should have a "summon panther" ability or something.

Using some cheats, you can add Boo to your party as a member. He is fast, has 100% magic resistence and a 25 dexterity. He makes a GREAT scout especially against mages who'll waste spells on him. Kind of a fun little jaunt.

I am pretty sure that Boo in fact is a bhaalspawn, even the most powerfull. After I defeat the last baddie in ToB, I am sure he will kill me.
