Special Abilities

Bay (Su) When a shadow mastiff howls or barks, every creature within a 300-foot spread except evil outsiders must succeed at a DC 15 Will save or become panicked for 1d4 rounds. This is a sense-dependent, mind-affecting fear effect. Whether a creature succeeds at the save or not, it can’t be affect by the same shadow mastiff’s bay for 24 hours. Shadow Blend (Su) In any condition of illumination other than bright light, a shadow mastiff disappears into the shadows, giving it concealment (50% miss chance). A shadow mastiff can suspend or resume this ability as a swift action. In addition, a shadow mastiff gains a +4 racial bonus to Stealth checks while in any condition of illumination other than bright light, and it can hide even if it is observed or lacks cover. Trip (Ex) In addition to dealing the listed damage, if a shadow mastiff hits with its bite attack and the attack roll result equals or exceeds the target’s KAC + 4, the shadow mastiff also automatically trips the foe (this takes no action).
