COMBAT

Compsognathus can be aggressive, using pack tacics to surround and down larger prey. The alpha confronts the prey from the front, while the rest of the pack quietly surrounds the prey. once surrounded, the Compy pack attacks as a group delivering miniscule bites loaded with a nuerotoxin that causes sleepiness and numbness.

Skills: Compsognathus have a +4 racial bonus on Hide and Move Silently checks. *In forested or overgrown areas, the Hide bonus improves to +8.
