SPECIAL ABILITIES

Parasitic Offspring (Ex)

An akata’s bite carries thousands of autonomous, parasitic particles of genetic matter. When an akata deals damage with its bite attack, the target must succeed at a DC 10 Fortitude save or be infected with these offspring, which function as the void parasites disease. A creature infected with void parasites that dies rises as a akata host 2d4 hours later.

Void Parasites

Type disease (injury); Save Fortitude DC 10; Track physical (special); Frequency 1/day; Cure 2 saves
