Description |
---|
Leap (Ex): Snow spiders are known for darting up to bite prey, and instantly leaping back to avoid a return attack. They gain Spring Attack as a bonus feat. In addition, if a snow spider can jump on its prey (usually by making a Jump check as part of its movement), it can make a charge attack with a +4 attack bonus instead of the normal +2. Poison (Ex): Bite attack; Injury; Fort DC 10; Onset: -; Frequency: 1/rnd for 3 rnds; Effect: 1 cold damage and paralyzed for 1d3 hours; Cure: 2 saves. The save DC is Constitution-based. Tremorsense (Ex): A snow spider can automatically sense the location of anything within 60 feet that is in contact with the ground (or on ice and snow). |
