Combat

Blindsight: Dire bats can "see" by emitting high-frequency sounds, inaudible to most other creatures, that allow them to locate objects and creatures within 120 feet. A silence spell negates this ability and forces the bat to rely on its weak vision, which has a maximum range of 10 feet.

Skills: Dire bats receive a +4 racial bonus to Spot and Listen checks. *These bonuses are lost if blindsight is negated.
