This creature is a severed body part: a hand, arm, foot, or leg that has been animated with an animate body part spell which has been made permanent with a permanency spell.  If it attacks the character to which it belonged, it receives a +2 bonus to Armor Class.

An animated body part qualifies as a neutral evil improved familiar that can be taken at 3rd level.

DESCRIPTION

You bring life back into a severed body part: a hand, arm, foot, or leg. It quickly develops a new manner of movement and attacks whatever targets you designate. Designating a target is a free action. An animated body part cannot have been severed for longer than an hour for the spell to work. If it attacks the character to which it belonged, it receives a +2 bonus to Armor Class.

This spell cannot animate body parts still attached to a creature. Animate body part can be made permanent with a permanency spell. If so, it qualifies as a neutral evil improved familiar that can be taken at 3rd level.
