Unlike a horse, a donkey or a mule is willing (though not eager) to enter dungeons and other strange or threatening places
Akin to the horse, but smaller and more willful, the donkey is a surefooted creature that makes an excellent beast of burden when traversing treacherous terrain
Donkey: 8 gp
Carrying Capacity A light load for a donkey is up to 50 pounds; a medium load, 51-100 pounds; and a heavy load, 101-150 pounds. A donkey can drag 750 pounds.
