When it attaches to the spine of its host, it takes on a reddish hue. The end of its body (below the host’s spine) extends down like a tail.Bloodfin are created by daelkyr to allow their minions to infiltrate underwater regions.A Bloodfin does not speak any language, but it understands undercommon.CombatA Bloodfin can only attach itself to a willing host; the would-be bearer must don the Bloodfin, at which point its tendrils dig into the flesh to bond with the body of the host. Attaching or removing a Bloodfin deals 1 point of Constitution damage.Blindsense (Ex): A Bloodfin can locate creatures underwater within a 30-foot radius. This ability works only when the Bloodfin is underwater.Channel touch (Ex):  If the Host is a spellcaster the Bloodfin is able to channel touch attack spells.Poison (Su): Stinger – injury, Fort DC 12, initial and secondary damage 1d4 Con.Swim Speed (Ex): By unjulating its body and tail the bloodfin gives the host a swim speed of 30 ft. In addition the host receives a +8 enhancement bonus on any Swim check to perform some special action or avoid a hazard. They can always choose to take 10 on a Swim check, even if distracted or endangered. They can use the run action while swimming, provided they swims in a straight line.Telepathy (Su): A Bloodfin can communicate telepathically with its host, if its host has a language.Water Breathing (Ex): Out of water the host provides the Bloodfin with oxygen. Under water the Bloodfin provides the host with oxygen.All Bloodfin’s bonuses are already factored into its stats.</blockquote>
