Combat

Augmented Critical: Scyther will murderise you with its claws, they're that sharp. Their critical threat range is 19-20 and their critical multiplier is x7. Try not to get critted by them. Ever.

Sharpness (Su): Scyther's claws are ultra-sharp. As such, they count as +3 weapons.

False Swipe (Ex): Scyther can, if it feels like it, pull back all strength at the last moment, leaving a foe on precisely 1 HP, 0 HP or -1 and stable. Often, it will do this to a lone attacker, unless they meet again, or it will do this to one member of a group in an attempt to make the others stop.

Spell-like Abilities (Sp): At will: cat's grace, summon swarm (spiders, locusts or bees only); 1/minute: mirror image; 1/day: haste. Caster level is equal to its Hit Dice, and the save DC is Dexterity-based.

The sample Scyther has a save DC of 16 + spell level for its spell-like abilities, and a caster level of 7.

Acceleration (Ex): Did you just see Scyther then? No? 'Course not, it's too damn fast. Scyther can elect, as a subconscious free action, to automatically win Initiative when combat begins. If it does this, however, it becomes fatigued in three rounds. This ability cannot be used while fatigued.
