any opinions on what the attribute rating of a fellbeast might be?

i'm thinking the high side of "fearsome monster" (8) or low side of "lethal monster" (9).

I'd go with 8 personally. Leaving the higher scores for the more unique or special creatures. Not demeaning Fell Beasts but at the end of the day they are really just flying horses, narratively speaking, serving as mounts for the Nazgul.

Yeah I'd even be tempted to go lower than that ... Like 6 or 7.

Also I wouldn't give them Great Size given that we see two of them get taken down with a single hit (Legolas' bow shot and Eowyn's decapitating sword swipe).

Yeah, I could be tempted to go down to 7, probably not 6 though.

Agree with the Great Size comment as well. Fell Beasts are large but it's evident that such a characteristic doesn't embue them with particularly enhanced toughness and they can be 'one-shoted'.

I'd be interested to see a write-up though. I always liked fell beasts / hell hawks.

Guessing that they would have maybe Fell Speed and Foul Reek. Seize Victim seems appropriate as well. After that, it's more just a matter of balancing stats. Hideous Toughness might even work well making them resilient to Endurance damage but capable of being one-shorted with a wound. I would give them a 2d or 3d roll for Armour and not favoured.
