Abilities & Attacks

Limited Vision. An aigamuxa's eyes are located on the bottom of their feet, making it difficult for them to see. An aigamuxa is typically Blind. If they Seek, they can see normally until the end of their turn. Weak Feet. If an aigamuxa takes damage from Striding or Stepping into hazardous terrain or a square with similar grounded hazards (such as caltrops), they can't Seek until the end of their next turn. Burrowed Ambush (2 actions). Requirements The aigamuxa is Hiding in dirt, sand, or another soft surface. Effect The aigamuxa makes a claw Strike against a creature within reach. On a hit, the aigamuxa automatically Grabs the creature. Whether or not they hit, the aigamuxa then Strides. If they have a creature grabbed, the creature moves with the aigamuxa. Burrowing Concealment (2 actions). Requirements The aigamuxa is standing on dirt, sand, or another soft surface. Effect The aigamuxa quickly digs into the surface and Hides. They leave their feet partially exposed, allowing them to see out from the surface. The aigamuxa can hold their breath for up to 10 minutes while hiding in this way. Swallow Whole (1 action) (attack). Small, 2d14+4 bludgeoning, Rupture 22. The monster attempts to swallow a creature of the listed size or smaller that it has grabbed or restrained in its jaws or mouth. If a swallowed creature is of the maximum size listed, the monster can't use Swallow Whole again. If the creature is smaller than the maximum, the monster can usually swallow more creatures; the GM determines the maximum. The monster attempts an Athletics check opposed by the grabbed creature's Reflex DC. If it succeeds, it swallows the creature. The monster's mouth or jaws no longer grab a creature it has swallowed, so the monster is free to use them to Strike or Grab once again. The monster can't attack creatures it has swallowed. A swallowed creature is Grabbed, is Slowed 1, and has to hold its breath or start suffocating. The swallowed creature takes the listed amount of damage when first swallowed and at the end of each of its turns while it's swallowed. If the victim Escapes this ability's grabbed condition, it exits through the monster's mouth. This frees any other creature grabbed in the monster's mouth or jaws. A swallowed creature can attack the monster that has swallowed it, but only with unarmed attacks or with weapons of light Bulk or less. The swallowing creature is Off-Guard against the attack. If the monster takes piercing or slashing damage equaling or exceeding the listed Rupture value from a single attack or spell, the swallowed creature cuts itself free. A creature that gets free by either Escaping or cutting itself free can immediately breathe and exits the swallowing monster's space. If the monster dies, a swallowed creature can be freed by creatures adjacent to the corpse if they spend a combined total of 3 actions cutting the monster open with a weapon or unarmed attack that deals piercing or slashing damage. Toss Up and Gulp Down (1 action). Requirements A Small or smaller creature is Grabbed or Restrained in the aigamuxa's claw. Effect The aigamuxa tosses the creature into the air and distends their jaw to catch it in their mouth. The target is grabbed in the aigamuxa's jaws, and the aigamuxa attempts to Swallow it Whole. If the aigamuxa fails the Athletics check, the target misses the aigamuxa's mouth and falls 30 feet instead of being grabbed. Grab (1 action). Requirements The monster's last action was a successful Strike that lists Grab in its damage entry, or the monster has a creature Grabbed or Restrained. Effect If used after a Strike, the monster attempts to Grapple the creature using the body part it attacked with. This attempt neither applies nor counts toward the creature's multiple attack penalty. The monster can instead use Grab and choose one creature it's grabbing or restraining with an appendage that has Grab to automatically extend that condition to the end of the monster's next turn.
