Special Abilities
| Winter's Spite (Su) Immediate Action when Bloodied |
|
On bloodied, all enemies within 20 feet become immobilized, save for slowed (Reflex vs. DC 24) |
| Personal Space Issues (Ex; Swarm Role) Automatic After Damage |
| Any living creature that takes damage from a swarm also becomes Distracted. While sharing a space with the swarm, affected creatures cannot get rid of the Distracted condition. At the end of any of an affected creature's turn in which they are outside of the swarm's space, the Distraction condition automatically ends. However, it is re-applied if they take further damage from the swarm. |
| Sum of the Parts (Ex; Swarm Role) Always On |
| Swarms, troops, and hordes follow the squeezing rules based on their component creature size, NOT the size of the swarm, troop, or horde as a whole. This means these groups of creatures can easily move through doorways that are sized appropriately to their component creature sizes. They can even stop in such spaces without suffering squeezing penalties. In such cases, the swarm's shape is unaffected, except that its space excludes any blocked spaces. That is, its space doesn't deform into a non-square shape, it's just treated as not occupying any blocked spaces within its space. This means it cannot threaten through blocked spaces, since it isn't technically occupying them.
Multiple swarms, troops, and hordes can share the same squares without squeezing or movement penalties. They can move through, and even stop on top of (or within) the spaces of other swarms, troops, or hordes. Swarms, troops, and hordes can also move over, through, and into spaces occupied by enemy creatures without provoking attacks of opportunity, even if they pass through or leave a threatened square. Furthermore, creatures inside the space of a swarm, troop, or horde are treated as flanked while they remain in that space (though this doesn't usually matter much, since swarms, troops, and hordes automatically hit with their attacks). Finally, a maximum of two swarms, troops, or hordes can attack a single given creature in a round, even if more than two swarms, troops, or hordes are threatening that creature. There simply isn't enough surface area of the enemy creature for more attacks to be inflicted. |
Teacup Yeti Swarm
This creature possesses the Swarm role, and therefore counts as 2 monsters for purposes of encounter size, XP award, and treasure.The Teacup Yeti is the smallest and most deceptively adorable of the fey yeti-kin, a living embodiment of weaponized cuteness. No larger than a kitten, these pint-sized fluffballs waddle through the snow with wide, glistening eyes and tiny, mittened paws, radiating an almost supernatural charm. But those who underestimate them soon find themselves at the mercy of an icy ambush.Teacup Yetis rarely attack alone, preferring to swarm their targets in a flurry of downy fur and frostbitten mischief. Their chilling touch saps warmth, and their innate fey magic seeps into the mind, clouding judgment with an almost hypnotic enchantment. Adventurers caught in their snare often find themselves too busy cooing over their supposed adorableness to notice the much larger Stark Yetis looming through the blizzard, ready to strike.
Though individually fragile, Teacup Yetis are not to be ignored. They are the first whisper of a coming storm, the innocent-looking snowfall before the avalanche. And by the time their victims realize the danger, it is far too late.
