Cat Lord legal status.

There was this NPC, the Cat Lord. He appeared in Monster Manual II for AD&D1 and Epic Level Handbook. Quite a character.
Recently I was practicing monster creation/conversion in D&D4 and got an idea of a short adventure about the Cat Lord. I wonder if it's worth it to make it into a pdf and distribute as free supplement. So, I need an advice:
1. Is Cat Lord copyrighted? If he is, what if I make a similar cat-themed character? How much similarities can there be?
2. Do I use GSL like OGL or I can even use OGL? Are there differences in usage?
Thanks %)
