Darkvision

A monster with darkvision can see perfectly well in areas of darkness and dim light, though such vision is in black and white only. Some forms of magical darkness, such as a 4th-level Darkness spell, block normal darkvision. A monster with Greater Darkvision, however, can see through even these forms of magical darkness.

Scent (Imprecise) 30 feet

Scent involves sensing creatures or objects by smell, and is usually a vague sense. The range is listed in the ability, and it functions only if the creature or object being detected emits an aroma (for instance, incorporeal creatures usually do not exude an aroma).

If a creature emits a heavy aroma or is upwind, the GM can double or even triple the range of scent abilities used to detect that creature, and the GM can reduce the range if a creature is downwind.

Stench (aura, olfactory)

30 feet Aura

---

A creature that enters the emanation must attempt a DC 19 fortitude save. On a failure, the creature is Sickened 1, or Sickened 2 on a critical failure. While within the aura, the creature takes a -2 circumstance penalty to saves to recover from the sickened condition. A creature that succeeds at its save is immune to all sigbins' stenches for 1 minute.

Unassuming Cloak

A sigbin becomes almost imperceptible if it stands completely still. If the sigbin does not move or attack during its turn, it becomes Invisible. It remains invisible until it moves or takes a hostile action. Children and young creatures, like animal cubs, can see the sigbin normally, even while it's invisible.

Shadow Drain

Requirements The sigbin is Unnoticed by its target.

---

Effect The sigbin makes a fangs Strike (unlike other Strikes, this does not end its invisibility if the sigbin is invisible). On a hit, the target takes nonlethal damage from the Strike and becomes Drained 1 (Drained 2 on a critical hit). The sigbin gains 15 temporary Hit Points that remain for 1 hour.

Knockdown

Requirements The monster's last action was a success with a Strike that lists Knockdown in its damage entry.

---

Effect The monster knocks the target Prone.

Resembling hornless goats with extremely long tails, sigbins live in forests and prey on inhabitants of nearby humanoid villages. Sigbins drink the blood of their victims by biting into their shadows, rather than their flesh. This process typically leaves the victim so fatigued that they must lie down to rest, at which point the sigbin finishes the job by sinking their jaws into the person's chest and consuming their heart.

Due to their nauseating smell, many sigbins hide among livestock and in other overwhelmingly odorous places. Sigbins have the ability to hide in plain sight simply by standing stock still, but this power works only against adults and elders; for whatever reason, children and young animals can see the invisible sigbins. Many believe this is because children are unsullied by the cruel ways of the world, and so their eyes are still innocent enough to spot the devious beasts. Unfortunately, most adults tend to ignore children's cries about the monsters, chalking up such claims to overactive imaginations or attention-seeking behavior, inadvertently allowing sigbins to continue their hunts uninterrupted.
