Special Abilities

Hold Breath
Although they can be violent, darfellans do not usually initiate a battle, though they attack whale hunters without hesitation. They prefer to fight in the water, surrounding an enemy while darting in to make attacks. Out of water, they begin with ranged harpoon attacks, hoping to impale and then reel in enemies. A darfellan has a +8 racial bonus on any Swim check to perform a special action or avoid a hazard. It can always choose to take 10 on a Swim check, even if distracted or endangered. It can use the run action while swimming, provided it swims in a straight line.
