SPECIAL ABILITIES

Collateral Damage (Su)

Whenever an attack fails to damage a hobkins, whether due to the attack result being too low, a miss chance, or a failure to penetrate DR, as a reaction the hobkins can redirect the attack to any target that was in range of the original attack (if any). The attack can’t be redirected against the original attacker.

The attacker rolls a new attack and damage roll against the new target.

Minor Levitation (Su)

Hobkins generally float 1 inch above the ground. A hobkins can levitate up to 20 feet straight up as a move action, but at the end of the movement, unless it’s found something to cling to, it returns to 1 inch above the nearest flat surface below.

Out of Phase (Su)

Hobkins are slightly out of phase with the Material Plane, causing all ranged attacks against them to suffer a 75% miss chance, including spells that require ranged touch attack rolls. Anything that prevents teleportation spells or effects also prevents this ability from functioning.
