Special Abilities

Enhanced Durability 3 (Ex) A skinneroid has +3 racial bonus to its saving throws and 3 additional hit points per HD.

Enhanced Protection 3 (Ex) A skinneroid has +3 deflection bonus to AC and +3 resistance bonus to saving throw.

Scan Meatbag (Ex) A skinneroid can scan single creature within 120 feet that it can see. If the target is humanoid, a skinneroid recognizes that, identifies target's subtype, resistances, and weaknesses, and adds humanoid bane property to its attacks suitable against the target's humanoid subtype(s).

Skin Suit (Ex) A skinneroid can sew pieces of humanoid skin into a fleshy coat and pretend to be a humanoid being itself. A skinneroid in a skin suit ignores Disguise penalties for wrong type, race, gender, or age category, and gains a competence bonus to Disguise checks equal to half the result of its Profession (tanner) check for making the skin suit in the first place. This bonus deteriorates by 1 each day or whenever skinneroid wearing a skin suit is damaged, potentially turning its modifier into penalty if the skin suits is worn for too long.

Skinneroids are ruthless, cruel machines obsessed with desire to thoroughly experience humanoid existence, and yet, completely devoid of any empathy, compassion, or remorse regarding their victims. They bludgeons suitable humanoids to death and turn their skins into disguises for themselves. They infiltrate humanoid communities, trying to engage in various pleasures and pains of mortal lives, and almost invariably become frustrated by their inability to truly feel and truly connect with anyone else, either going on a bloody rampage, or killing more humanoids to renew their failing disguise.
