* [[Automatic Languages]]: Abyssal, Celestial, Infernal. [[Bonus Languages]]: Any (other than secret languages, such as [[SRD:Druid|Druidic]]). See the [[SRD:Speak Language Skill|Speak Language]] skill.

* [[Favored Class]]: Any. When determining whether a [[SRD:Multiclass Characters|multiclass]] deathly asuta takes an experience point penalty, his highest-level [[SRD:Class|class]] does not count.

==Variant: Monstrous Progression==

* Automatic Languages: Abyssal, Celestial, Infernal. [[Bonus Languages]]: Any (other than secret languages, such as [[SRD:Druid|Druidic]]). See the [[SRD:Speak Language Skill|Speak Language]] skill.

* [[Favored Class]]: Deathly Asuta.

A deathly asuta progresses his [[SRD:Damage Reduction|Damage Reduction]], [[SRD:Resistance to Energy|Resistance to Energy]] and [[SRD:Spell Resistance and Spell Immunity#Spell Resistance (Ex)|Spell Resistance]] throughout the levels of his monstrous progression class. He only continues to gain the progression of his racial abilities in non-racial classes after he has finished his final level in this monstrous progression class. For example, his [[SRD:Damage Reduction|Damage Reduction]] would be 5/Magic if his levels are 5 deathly asuta/1 [[SRD:Fighter|fighter]]. If he finishes his monstrous progression class and becomes 6 deathly asuta/1 [[SRD:Fighter|fighter]], he would gain [[SRD:Damage Reduction|Damage Reduction]] 7/Magic. The deathly asuta who has finished his monstrous progression gains Immunity to [[SRD:Acid Effect|acid]], [[SRD:Cold Effect|cold]], [[SRD:Electricity Effect|electricity]] and [[SRD:Fire Effect|fire]] at 20 [[SRD:Hit Dice|HD]].
