SPECIAL ABILITIES
Blaster (Su)
A bandercoeurl can send out a pulse of electricity through its whiskers at a single target within 30 ft. The bandercoeurl must make a ranged touch attack (+13), if it hits, the target takes 3d6 points of lightning damage and must make a Fortitude save (DC 17) or be inflicted with Immobilize status for 1d4 rounds. Blue mages may learn this ability as a 3rd level spell (Knowledge: Arcana DC 21).
Darting Claw (Ex)
Evolved for snatching fast prey, a bandercoeurl is exceptionally quick with its claws. When making a full attack, if a bandercoeurl misses with both of its claw attacks, it can make an additional claw attack at a -2 penalty against any creature within its reach.
Pounce (Ex)
A bandercoeurl can make a full attack (including its rake attack) when it makes a charge attack.
