| Shrink (Sp) | Three times per day, as a swift action, Pyotr can reduce its size to any size category smaller than itself as though affected by a stackable reduce person spell for each reduction in size category. This spell-like ability lasts until it decides to end it, which it can do as a free action. The caster level is 1st for this ability. |
| Unbreakable Frost Bond (Su) | Pyotr shares a bond with Alexei that transcends the physical. It has Alexei's alignment. If Alexei dies, Pyotr dies 2d10 days later from depression. If it dies then Alexei must attempt a Fortitude saving throw of DC 25. If the saving throw is failed, Alexei loses 8 hit points. He will then go into a rage for 1d12 rounds as if he was a 1st level.
At all times, Pyotr and Alexei can communicate empathetically and telepathically, see out of each others eyes, and can locate each other as if by the locate creature spell. Alexei automatically passes Ride checks to attack while mounted and to control Pyotr in battle when mounted on it. He has full control over Pyotr's speed at all times. Alexei and Pyotr share the same initiative, which is rolled using Araënû’s initiative bonus. barbarian. |
