[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 5727031, member: 57383"] I suppose we'd better modify the environmental body and skinstealing now... [B]Environmental Body (Ex):[/B] A windigo can form a physical body for itself out of leaves, dirt, rocks or any other small loose objects lying in its vicinity. While in this form, the windigo loses its incorporeal subtype [COLOR=Red]and its transparent body special quality[/COLOR], but it gains two claw attacks that deal 1d6 damage each, a natural armor bonus, and a Strength score of 15. Forming an environmental body requires a move action; the windigo can revert to its natural incorporeal form as a swift action. The natural armor bonus of the body depends on the hardness of its materials, according to the following table: [B] Skinstealing (Ex):[/B] If a windigo personally kills a humanoid within one size category of its own size, it can steal that humanoid's skin as a full-round action. A windigo wearing a stolen skin takes on its victim's appearance, voice, and physical abilities as per the alternate form special ability. [COLOR=Red]It loses its incorporeal subtype and transparent body special quality. [/COLOR]The windigo is effectively disguised as the individual whose skin it has stolen (with a +10 bonus on its Disguise checks). A windigo can wear a stolen skin for up to 1 hour, whereupon the skin starts to rip and fray, returning the windigo to its true form. A windigo cannot take off a stolen skin without tearing and ruining it. Might as well mention it in Transparent Body while we're at it... [B] Transparent Body (Ex):[/B] Due to its transparent body, a windigo is very hard to see, even under ideal conditions. At distances greater than 50 feet, a windigo is invisible. Within 50 feet, a creature can notice the presence of an active windigo with a DC 15 Spot check. A windigo that is moving gains a +15 bonus on Hide checks, one that is immobile gains a +30 bonus to Hide checks. A windigo within 50 feet gains concealment (rather than total concealment) against attackers that notice it. This ability is constant, allowing a windigo to remain nearly invisible even when attacking. This transparency is an innate property of the windigo's flesh, so is not subject to the invisibility purge spell.
