    Sharp Claws (12): thrust 1d-1 cutting, Reach C.
    Vampiric Bite (12): thrust 1d-1 cutting (KYOS: 1d+2 cutting), Reach C. The anguillian can drain the victim’s life if the victim is helpless (pinned, stunned, unconscious, etc.), grappled, or willing. If he is wearing armor, the anguillian’s biting damage must penetrate its DR. Once the anguillian has bitten through the victim’s DR, he can drain 1 HP per second from him. For every 3 HP stolen, the anguillian heals 1 HP or 1 FP (his choice). He cannot raise his HP or FP above normal this way.

    Petrifying Gaze (14): A medusa’s petrifying gaze spreads out in a cone 15 yards long and 15 yards wide at the end. She cannot select who is affected; all potential victims must be looking at her, including insubstantial beings. Roll a Quick Contest of the medusa’s Will versus the target’s HT, using normal range penalties. If the medusa wins, the target is petrified. This effect cannot be dispelled by Dispel Magic – a more powerful effect, such as Stone to Flesh or Remove Curse, is required. Someone looking at a reflection of a medusa is not affected by her gaze. Fighting while looking in a mirror is at a -5 penalty; attacks made with closed eyes are at -10.
