Special Abilities

Arctic Adaptation (Ex) Ice sirens can move on slippery surfaces such as ice, or deep snow without any hindrance and are unaffected by hindrance caused by cold environments and weather.

Arctic Songs (Su) In cold environment, one or more ice sirens can sing, altering the weather to their tastes. They can bring or dismiss hail, sleet, or snowfall, turn existing precipitation into a blizzard, or diminish blizzard into a regular snowstorm. The effects takes at least 10 minutes to occur after at least 10 minutes of singing, extending over an area approximately half a mile per ice siren singing in radius, and lasts as long as the song continues plus one hour per siren taking part.

Burst Through Ice (Ex) An ice siren burrowing underneath ice or snow can take a full-round action to move up to her burrow speed, emerge, and make a full attack against targets within her reach.


Ice sirens live in the frozen regions of the world, sapient and capable of speech but living in semi-feral groups that have little regard for culture, civilization, or beings other than themselves and their small groups. When they don't hunt, eat, or rest, they mate or sing, which seem to be their only forms of passing time. They have no taboos about consuming flesh of sapient beings—while most groups of ice sirens don't go out of their way to actively seek and hunt speaking prey, they won't let a good opportunity for a feast to go to waste either. While they can be bargained with, they lack such notions as honor or sense of obligation, so any deal made with them will last only as long as it continues to benefit them or is backed up with sufficient force.
