(no range increment) or as a standard action it can launch one of these spines with the same range.  The spined devil regrows lost spines immediately.Upon being launched, the spines burst into flame and subsequently deal 1d4 points of fire upon impact.Also, anyone who grapples with the spined devil or hits it with a natural weapon automatically takes 1d4 points of damage.Summon Baatezu (Sp): Once per day, a spined devil can automatically summon 1d3 other spined devils with a 60% chance of success.  This is the equivalent of a 2nd level spell.</blockquote>
