    Sharp Claws (12): thrust 5d-1 cutting (KYOS: 6d+1 cutting), Reach C.
    Sharp Teeth (12): thrust 5d-1 cutting (KYOS: 6d+1 cutting), Reach C.
    Breathe Electricity (14): The behir breathes out a bolt of lightning, dealing thrust 1d+2 burning surge damage (KYOS: 2d+1) as large-area injury. Wearing any metal armor anywhere means having DR 1 against it, if that would be worse for the victim. Anyone wounded must make a HT roll at ‑1 per 2 HP of injury or be stunned, rolling against HT each turn thereafter to recover. This is a cone attack that uses rules from Area and Spreading Attacks (pp. B413-414). The cone is 1-yard wide and has a length of 7 yards (ST/5). Each use costs 2 FP. It is possible to make the cone wider by using the rules from Cones of Power (GURPS Dungeon Fantasy Monsters 4: Dragons, p. 10).
