SPECIAL ABILITIES

Bioluminescence (Ex)

The tardigrade can choose to shed light from any part of its body, ranging in intensity from a soft glow like that of a candle (shadowy illumination in a 5-foot radius) to the full brightness of a torch (bright light in a 20-foot radius and shadowy illumination for an additional 20 feet). The tardigrade may duplicate any color of light it so desires, even creating multiple colors, and may cancel or resume use of this ability at will as a swift action.

Reflect Spells (Ex)

Every 1d4 rounds as a swift action, a glass tardigrade can form a glassy coating over its skin to enhance its resistance to magic for 1 round. During this time, spells and spell-like effects targeting the tardigrade are turned back upon the original caster. Area effect spells and spells with a range of touch are not affected.

Up to ten spell levels are affected by the turning before the effect is exhausted.
