Thanks to their high Intelligence scores, most sahuagin also speak two bonus languages, usually Aquan and one other language. Combat Sahuagin are savage fighters, asking for and giving no quarter. When swimming, a sahuagin tears with its feet as it strikes with its talons or a weapon. About half of any group of sahuagin are also armed with nets. When sahuagin raid surface dwellers’ communities, they venture ashore on dark, moonless nights to slaughter the inhabitants and livestock for food.

It can use the run action while swimming, provided it swims in a straight line. *Underwater, a sahuagin has a +4 racial bonus on Hide, Listen, and Spot checks. *A sahuagin has a +4 racial bonus on Survival and Profession (hunter) checks within 50 miles of its home. *A sahuagin has a +4 racial bonus on Handle Animal checks when working with sharks. Sahuagin Mutants About one in two hundred sahuagin has four arms. Such creatures can make four claw attacks or use extra weapons, in addition to the claw and bite attacks.
