Many a hunter would like to bring down the
mighty aurumvorax. Though potentially a popular object of
the hunt, this beast's own abilities keep it from
becoming hunted to extinction.

Combat
- Damage resistance(Ex): The damage resitance of
an aurumvorax comes from its dense musclemass and applies
only to blunt weapons.
- Improved grab(Ex): If the aurumvorax hits with
its bite, it engages the improved grab. While in the
grapple, it automatically deals bite damage each round
and can attack its opponent with all of its eight
claws.
- Poison flesh(Ex): Due to its high metal
content, the flesh of the aurumvorax is poisonous to most
creatures. (Ingested, DC 13, onset time 10-40 minutes,
initial damage 1d6 dex, secondary damage 2d6 dex.)
A skilled tanner may be able to make excellent
hide armor from the hide of an aurumvorax.
