 Raptoran base land speed is 30 feet. Medium: As Medium creatures, Raptoran have no special bonuses or penalties due to their size. Wing-Aided Movement: Raptoran can use their wings to help with movement even if they can't fly yet. The extra lift from her wings gives a Raptoran a +10 racial bonus on acrobatics checks. Gliding (Ex): A Raptoran can use her wings to glide, negating damage from a fall of any height and allowing 20 feet of forward travel for every 5 feet of descent. Raptoran glide at a speed of 40 feet (average maneuverability), Even if a raptoran's maneuverability improves, she can't hover while gliding. A raptoran can't glide while carrying a medium or heavy load. If a raptoran becomes unconscious or helpless while in mid air, her wings naturally unfurl and powerful ligaments stiffen the wings. The raptoran descends in a tight corkscrew and takes only 1d6 points of falling damage, no matter what the actual distance of the fall. Flight (Ex): When a raptoran reaches 3 Hit Dice, she becomes able to fly at a speed of 40 feet (average maneuverability), A raptoran can't fly while carrying a medium or heavy load or while fatigued or exhausted. Raptoran’s can safely fly for a number of rounds equal to their Constitution modifier (minimum 1 round). They can exert themselves to fly for up to twice as long, but then they’re fatigued at the end of the flight. Raptoran’s are likewise fatigued after spending a total of more than 10 minutes per day flying. Because raptoran’s can glide before, after, and between rounds of actual flight, they can remain aloft for extended periods (even if they can only use flight for 1 round at a time without becoming fatigued). When they reach 5 Hit Dice, raptoran’s have enough stamina and prowess to fly for longer periods. They can fly at a speed of 40 feet (average maneuverability), and flying requires no more exertion than walking or running. A raptoran with flight can make a dive attack. A dive attack works like a charge, but the raptoran must move a minimum of30 feet and descend at least 10 feet. A raptoran can make a dive attack only when wielding a piercing weapon; if the attack hits, it deals double damage. A raptoran with flight can use the run action while flying, provided she flies in a straight line. Pact with Wind Lords: Because of the ancient bargain raptoran’s made with powerful air elementals, raptoran spellcasters cast spells with the air descriptor at +1 caster level. Unerring Direction: Raptoran’s have an instinctive sense of which direction is north, even when they are underground or otherwise unable to see the sky or other visual cues. Beyond the Material plane, this ability doesn't function. Low-Light Vision: A raptoran can see twice as far a human in starlight, moonlight, torchlight, and similar conditions of poor illumination. A raptoran retains the ability to distinguish color and detail under these conditions. Weapon Familiarity: Raptorans treat the foot bow as a martial weapon rather than as an exotic weapon. +4 racial bonus on athletics and perception checks. Raptoran’s have strong grips with both hands and feet, and their eyes are unusually keen. Automatic languages: Common & Raptoran Bonus Languages: Draconic, Elven, Gnome, Goblin, Orc, and Sylvan.
