Wyrm

Species Traits

Breath Weapon (Su): A wyrm can breathe a 60-foot-long, 5-foot-wide line of fire every 1d4 rounds as an attack action. Any creature in the line of fire takes 10d10 points of damage, or half damage if a Reflex save (DC 25) succeeds.

**Improved Grab (Ex):**To use this ability, a wyrm must hit with both claw attacks. If it gets a hold, it hangs on and stings. If a wyrm grabs a creature two or more size categories smaller, it automatically deals damage with both claws and its sting each round the hold is maintained. See Improved Grab.

**Fling (Ex):**A wyrm can drop a creature it has grabbed or use an attack action to fling it aside. A flung creature travels 30 feet and takes 3d6 points of damage. If the wyrm flings it while flying, the creature takes this amount or falling damage, whichever is greater.

**Poison (Ex):**A creature stung by a wyrm must succeed on a Fortitude save (DC 25) or take 2d6 points of temporary Constitution damage. After 1 minute has elapsed, the creature must succeed on a second save (DC 25) or take another 2d6 points of temporary Constitution damage.

**Scent (Ex):**This ability allows a wyrm to detect approaching enemies, sniff out hidden foes, and track by sense of smell. See Special Qualities for more information.

Immunities (Ex): Wyrms are immune to sleep, hold, and paralysis effects.

**Skill Bonus:**Wyrms receive a +3 species bonus on Spot checks during daylight hours.
