[QUOTE="jmucchiello, post: 553473, member: 813"] Try the DMG where it describes what Ability score drain and poisons are. It is under a section (in chapter 2 or 3 (I don't have my book here)) called Special Abilities. Try in the front of the MM where it describes both Special Attacks and Special Qualities and most of them are also in the DMG list of Special Abilities. These are entries in most monster entries. Does that make Special Ability a defined term for you? Hong has be asking for someone to find an ability on a monster where the ability is listed as either a Special Attack or a Special Quality which does not have the Ex, Sp, or Su modifier. No one has given one. Natural armor is listed in the AC line, movement is in the Speed line. I am hoping that (Na) gets added to the specials list so that the constrict ability of certain snakes becomes useful as a polymorph. I doubt they will make this change for 3.1 edition next summer, though. I think this as a better question: Do you get 200 feet of flight if you polymorph into an young adult white dragon? I'm sure some of that speed is magical. How much is though? Sure would be nice if the MM were more explicit about this. [/QUOTE]
