Sounds like a reskinned onyx panther.
That's because it is. And it is a completely unscrupulous way to get around their promise that the Onyx Panther was pre-release only.

I am guessing they placed it here because:
A) It is just a reskined Onyx Panther and
Try this instead:
A) It was the
absolute least possible amount of work they could do to try to pull in some VIP subscriptions.
They supposedly have an expansion being released this year. That will no doubt have some kind of pre-release perk attached to it. This off-cycle attempt to get VIP subs hints that they are young and need the money.

Not trying to compain about free stuff, btw.
It's not free. It's a perk for paying them money.

How to do this right:
As a thank you from Standing Stone Games, starting February 6th, active VIPs can receive a special gift! Simply sign in and log into a character on your VIP account before March 15th to get an account-wide permanent, level-scaling, Kobold Rogue Hireling for all your characters, forever!
The Alabaster Kobold Figurine of Wondrous Power:
- Rogue Hireling spawns with a level matching that of the summoner.
That's the "how to do it right if you aren't Turbine/SSG. If they didn't just re-skin the panther then they'd do something more like this:
- Rogue Hireling spawns with a level matching that of the summoner's rogue levels!
