Description
Hold Breath (Ex) A blue whale can hold its breath a number of rounds equal to 10 times its Constitution score.
Stun (Ex) A blue whale’s fluke can deliver a powerful stunning blow.
A creature struck by this attack must succeed at a DC 34 Fortitude save or be dazed for 1 round. If the strike is a critical hit and the target fails its save, it is also stunned for 1d4 rounds. The save DC is Strength-based.
Tail Slap (Ex) A blue whale’s tail slap is a primary attack and applies 1–1/2 times its Strength bonus on damage rolls. Despite their size, blue whales are docile unless threatened. They eat millions of tiny invertebrates known as krill, which they suck through their baleen in massive gulps. These enormous mammals can be found in oceans and seas. An adult blue whale is 100 feet long and weighs 200 tons.
