Coil Spy

Creature 4 (uncommon) — humanoid, serpentfolk

Some serpentfolk undergo intense ritual training and practice to improve their innate ability to disguise themselves. These serpentfolk often identify as members of a sinister society known as the Coils of Ydersius, and the most devoted of their number seek out methods of reincarnating into new forms to infiltrate enemy societies even more efficiently. Coil spies train in methods of infiltrating other societies to such an extent that they might be capable of infiltrating a mammalian civilization

Thin of Blood — Coil spies recover slowly from injuries. When they take physical damage from a critical hit, they gain 1d4 persistent bleed damage. They take a –2 circumstance penalty to flat checks to recover from persistent damage and saving throws against afflictions.
Deceptive Reposition — The Coil spy Strides up to half their Speed and attempts a Feint, in either order.
Maintain Disguise — A Coil spy can maintain an ongoing Illusory Disguise as long as they are conscious without having to re-cast the spell; they need only Cast the Spell again to reassume their illusory disguise if they wish to change their appearance or if the active spell is dispelled. Coil spies typically seek privacy when they need to sleep, as an ongoing illusory disguise ends an hour after they fall Unconscious.
