Special Abilities

Cruel Dissection (Ex) Quyus use their knowledge of physiology to increase their likelihood of landing devastating attacks. When a quyu hits with a bite or spiked missile attack, the target must succeed at a Fortitude save or take an additional 1d6 piercing damage. Facade Form (Ex) As a move action, the quyu can switch into or out of its adorable facade form. While in its facade form, the quyu’s pathetic gaze is active, but it can’t use any of its melee or ranged attacks. While in facade form, the quyu is a Tiny creature. Pathetic Gaze (Su) The quyu’s sightless eyes cast a magical influence on those who meet its gaze. While in facade form, any creature within 30 feet of the quyu that can see it must succeed at a DC 14 Will save or gain the fascinated condition. On a failed save, the target also becomes irrationally infatuated with the quyu and takes a –4 penalty to attacks against it for 1d4 rounds, even if the quyu leaves facade form. This is a mind-affecting emotion effect. Spiked Missile (Ex) A quyu’s spiked missile attack has a range increment of 60 feet.
