Special Abilities
Acid resistant skin (Ex): The skin of the creature has been strengthened to resist acid-based attacks. As such, the skin automatically secretes a specialized chemical, which breaks down any type of acid instantaneously, rendering it harmless. As such the creature is immune to all acid-based attacks.
Blinding spit (Ex): As a standard action, the creature can spit a stream of caustic fluids into the face of an opponent. This is a ranged attack, and the target is allowed a Reflex save (DC 16). If the save fails, the target is blinded until they can wash away the spit. If the creature makes a critical hit with the spit, the target does not get a saving throw and the blindness is permanent. It can only use this ability once every two rounds, and it inflicts 1d10+5 acid damage). The blindness, if not permanent, will last until the victim is able to take at least 1 minute to wash away the chemical.
Concentrated molecular acid reservoirs: (Ex) The regular acid glands have been replaced by specialized reservoirs. The acid produced by these new cybernetic reservoirs is far more caustic than the biological version. As such the damage is increased and the DC to avoid the blindness is also increased by +2
Sadistic (Ex): Whenever the creature successfully blinds a target with its acid attack, it will automatically gain a free strike with both claws, as long as it is in striking distance.
These creatures are often sporadically placed among other types of augmented dinosaurs. They often are used to sneak up on enemy positions in order to get at the combatants and blind them with their acidic spit. With the increased intellect, thanks to the augmentations, they are smart enough to go after officers or other high-value targets, and if anything are even more sadistic than the un-augmented versions.
