To sever a head, an opponent must hit the monster’s neck with a slashing weapon and deal damage equal to the hydra man’s original hit point total (25), divided by its number of heads (5), in one blow. (The player says where the attack is aimed just before making the attack roll.) Any excess damage is lost. A severed head dies and a natural reflex seals the neck shut to prevent further blood loss. The hydra man can no longer attack with the severed head but suffers no other penalties. A severed head regrows in about a month.Scent (Ex): A hydra man can detect approaching enemies, sniff out hidden foes, and track by sense of smell.  Range is 30 ft.  If upwind, the range increases to 60 ft.; if downwind, it drops to 15 ft.Skills: Hydra men receive a +2 racial bonus to Listen and Spot checks, thanks to their multiple heads. Hydra men gain a +8 racial bonus to Swim checks due to their swim speed.Feats: A hydra man’s Combat Reflexes feat allows it to use all it’s heads for attacks of opportunity each round.Hydra Man CharactersHydra men favor the barbarian class.</blockquote>
