Appearance: Vorpal bunnies typically appear as other rabbits. They come in various colors, and are considered 'cute' by some. (For a while, anyway.) Specimens usually range from six to twenty-four inches in length, and as high as thirty-two inches when standing on their rear legs.
Combat: VB (ie Vorpal Bunnies from here on..) lure their prey to them by hoppin' about and acting cute.
"There it is!"
"Where? Behing the rabbit?"
"Noh, it *is* the rabbit!"
"You tit! I soiled me armour I was so scared!"
"Boris, go chop it's head off!"
"Right! Rabbit stew commin' right up!"

They emit a gentle cooing sound, which has the effect of a low power charm spell. (Save vs. spell at +2) Those charmed will be disposed toward picking up the "cute little wabbit" and perhaps petting it. Once it's prey is off guard, the VB leaps at the throat of it's prey. (A natural to-hit of 18-20 indicates the VB has struck the throat of it's victim, and decapitated it.) The VB will run if it is seriosly pressed (ie battle goes against it), and will try and return later to consume anyone (or anything) it was successful in killing.
BTW, the low armor class of the VB is due to his blindingly fast attack, and the fact that it usually catches it's prey off guard. DM's may wish to adjust the AC and HD for their campaign.
As for experience point value, I don't have a DMG handy, but I suggest you use the tables provided in the guide for figuring out the exp value of monsters.
