Eponine are rare and designed to attack unnoticed before dishing out heavy punishment. They all have dark skin with a blue tint and prefer attacking with large mobs of husks under them unless they are confident enough that their stealth will be sufficient.

Combat

Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, a eponine must hit a creature of its size or smaller with its slam attack. It can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity.

Paralyzing Touch (Su): A eponine lashes out with its claws in combat. An opponent the claw touches must succeed on a DC 17 Fortitude save or become paralyzed for 1d4 minutes. The save DC is Charisma-based.

Create Spawn (Su): Creatures killed by a eponine rise after 1d4 days as husk under the eponine’s control. They do not possess any of the abilities they had in life.
