 * No Burden At All : Yoshi can carry greater burdens than others of their size, as if they were quadrupedal. Their carrying capacity is 1½ as great as normal and they can serve as mounts for creatures up to their size category.
 * Tongue : A Yoshi can, as a standard action, start a Grapple with a creature within 10 ft of them. To maintain a grapple with a tongue, a Yoshi does not have to move into the square of the target. The Yoshi can try to pull the grappled creature into its mouth with an opposed Strength check. If it wins by 5 or more, it drags the creature into its space. If it wins by less than 5, it drags the creature 5 ft closer, but can’t swallow it. The Yoshi can also move towards the creature, but can't move further than 10 ft away from them due to the limited length of its tongue.
 * Skills: Yoshi’s have a -2 penalty to Bluff, Diplomacy, Intimidate, and Sense Motive checks due to Yoshi not being used to other cultures and certainly not being used to bad people. They also have a -5 penalty on Ride checks, being used more as mounts themselves rather than being the ones using the mounts. Lastly, they have a +8 bonus on Jump checks.
