I see ya.
The Sniper finding his lost pet chameleon

The Cobber Chameleon is a community-created cosmetic item for the Sniper. It is a light green chameleon on the Sniper's left shoulder that looks around as the Sniper moves.

When players equipped with this item kill an enemy unassisted by another player, the killfeed shows everyone in Pyroland that it gets the assist, with its custom name if it has one.

The Cobber Chameleon was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
