Level Adjustment—-

Button Up (Ex): Once per round as a Free Action the Ammonite may withdraw completely into it’s shell gaining a +6 Circumstance Bonus to AC. While buttoned up it’s Jet is the only action it may take.

Improved Grab (Ex): Ammonites may use Dexterity or Strength modifier (whichever is better) for Grapple Checks, and do not take Size Penalties to Grapple Checks. If the Ammonite successfully hits a creature of any Size with it’s Tentacles Attack it may make a Grapple Check as a Free Action without provoking an Attack of Opportunity. If successful it may do it’s Bite damage each round.

Ink Cloud (Ex): An Ammonite can emit a 5x5x5 cloud of Ink once per round once per minute as a Free Action. It provides the Ammonite with total concealment, and blocks all sight within the cloud.

Jet (Ex): Once per round as a Full Round Action the Ammonite may move 60′ backwards in a straight line without provoking an attack of opportunity.

Skills: Ammonites get a +8 Racial Bonus on Swim checks, and may always take 10 on a Swim check even if distracted or endangered.
