Special Abilities
--------------------
Bonus Feat Marrulurks gain Point Blank Shot and Precise Shot as bonus feats. Fighters recieve a bonus feat at first level and ever even level thereafter.

Weapon Proficiency Marrulurks are proficient with all medium or lighter armors, all shields, and all simple weapons. Fighters are proficient with all simple and martial weapons, all armors and shields.

Discerning Hearing (Ex) +4 Listen; auto-detect presence of most creatures by sound of breathing, heartbeat, or movement in 30 [not constructs, undead, or others lackin metabolism unless they move]; not auto-locate unless within 5 ft, just recognize (move action auto-locates within full 30 ft.)

Resistance to Dessication (Ex) resistance to dessication damage 10; takes no nonlethal or lethal damage from failing CON checks to avoid becoming dehydrated, though still may become fatigued (only requires a mouthful of water to recover from dehydration, regardless of source); only requires half water for it's size

Resistance to Fire (Ex) 5

Low-light Vision (Ex) basic

Death Attack (Ex) If a marrulurk studies a victim for 3 rounds and then makes a sneak attack with a melee weapon that successfully deals damage, the sneak attack has the additional effect of possibly either paralyzing or killing the target (marrulurk’s choice). The save DC against a marrulurk’s death attack is 13, and the save DC is Charisma-based. This ability otherwise functions like the assassin’s death attack ability described on page 180 of the Dungeon Master’s Guide and is subject to the same limitations.

Nauseating Breath (Su) Once per day, a marru lurk can breathe a 10-foot cone of nauseating gas as a free action. All creatures except other marrulurks within the area must succeed on a DC 13 Fortitude save or be nauseated 1 round. The save DC is Constitutionbased. See page 301 of the Dungeon Master’s Guide for a description of the nauseated condition.

Poison Use (Ex) A marru lurk is skilled in the use of poison and never risks accidentally poisoning itself when applying poison to a weapon. A marrulurk typically carries 2d4 doses of Large monstrous scorpion venom (Fort DC 14; 1d4 Con/1d4 Con), applying it to its crossbow bolts and scimitars.

Sneak Attack (Ex) A marrulurk deals extra damage when it is flanking an opponent or at any time when the target would be denied its Dexterity bonus. This extra damage applies to ranged attacks only if the target is within 30 feet. See the rogue class feature, page 50 of the Player’s Handbook.

Skills Marrulurks have a +4 racial bonus on Hide and Move Silently checks.

Although not one of the Marrulurks, it's worth noting that eventually the Hand is likely going to send a different sort of special agent - a beguiler - if several of the 'lurks aren't doing so well.
