Crystalline slivers are highly specialized slivers that are created to act as a first defense against spellcasting enemies of the sliver hives.
A crystalline sliver, as the name implies, looks like a sliver crafted from the finest crystal. The sliver is almost transparent and its body glitters in different colors, as light dances upon its body.
The crystalline sliver is usually about 7’ in length.
Combat:
Crystalline slivers love ambushes, and will try to flank it’s opponents if given the opportunity. Since they where bred to be living shields against spellcasters, they usually go after wizards and sorcerers first.
Shared Ability (Ex): All slivers within 60’ of the crystalline sliver that lack spell resistance gain spell resistance equal to 10 plus half their HD. If the sliver already possesses SR, its existing SR is increased by +2.
