Combat
Athachs charge into melee combat unless their opponents are out of reach, in which case they throw rocks. They sometimes try to overrun armored opponents to reach unarmored opponents in back ranks. With their first few melee attacks, athachs tend to flail about indiscriminately. After a few rounds, they concentrate on foes that have been hitting them most often and use their bites on whoever has dealt them the most damage.
Poison (Ex): Bite, Fortitude save (DC 22); initial damage 1d6 temporary Strength, secondary damage 2d6 temporary Strength.
