Feats

Maurs use weapons and spell-like abilities instead of hurling rocks, since rock-hurling is difficult in constricted, twisted underground passages. While hunched, a maur is unable to use its full physical and spell-like abilities. When in a space at least 20 feet in height, however, it can unfold its crumpled form, dramatically increasing its reach and threat range, as well as its general morale and access to its inborn powers. Earth Subtype This subtype usually is used for elementals and outsiders with a connection to the Elemental Plane of Earth. Earth creatures usually have burrow speeds, and most earth creatures can burrow through solid rock.
