Special Abilities

Chain Killing (Ex) After dropping its target to 0 or less hit points, an owlslaught can follow up with a charge action against another enemy, with +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls.

Ghost Flight (Ex) An owlslaught flies with a seemingly unnatural smoothness and silence, making estimating the distance and predicting its movement correctly a nightmare. Any attacks aimed at owlslaught while it moves suffer from 50% miss chance.

Harrasing Pounce (Ex) When charging, an owlslaught can attack with both of its talons and their critical threat increases to 18–20.

An owlslaught is a silent and deadly hunter, roaming forests in search of prey. It is aggressively competitive and territorial, though a number of owlslaughts are wanderes challenging owlslaughts, predators, and hunters and trying to outperform them in their hunts.
