These creatures are aggressive and territorial hunters, with arms reaching 10 feet or more in length. Their tentacles are studded with barbs and sharp-edged suckers.
Ink Cloud (Ex): A
giant octopus can emit a cloud of
jet-black ink 20 feet high by 20 feet wide by 20 feet long once per minute as a
free action. The cloud provides total
concealment, which the
octopus normally uses to escape a losing fight. All
vision within the cloud is obscured.
Skills: A
giant octopus can change colors, giving it a +4 racial bonus on
Hide checks. A
giant octopus also can squeeze and contort its body, giving it a +10 racial bonus on
Escape Artist checks. A
giant octopus has a +8 racial bonus on any
Swim check to
perform some special action or avoid a hazard. It can always choose to take 10 on a
Swim check, even if distracted or endangered. It can use the
run action while swimming, provided it swims in a straight line.
