    A small pack of creatures are consuming a nearby Igaunodon. Their tan faces and red feathers are smeared with blood.

    Pyroraptors are agile dromeosaurids closely related to Deinonychus and Epidendrosaurus. These extremely aggressive predators have been known to attack well-armed travelers and much larger dinosaurs alike. Unlike most dinosaurs, Pyroraptors have been known to form packs with other species of dromeosaurids. It is believed that this survival strategy is what has allowed them to prosper.

    Combat
    Pyroraptors tend to try to jut their prey alive, trying to end combat as soon as possible. If they find that their enemies are extremely resilient, they flee, only to return later to engage in hit and run tactics.

    Pounce (Ex): If a Pyroraptor charges, it can make a full attack.

    Slight Build (Ex): The physical stature of pyroraptors lets them function in many ways as if they were one size category smaller. Whenever a pyroraptor is subject to a size modifier or special size modifier for an opposed check (such as Hide), the pyroraptor is treated as one size smaller if doing so is advantageous to the character. A pyroraptor is also considered to be one size smaller when "squeezing" through a restrictive space. A pyroraptor can use weapons designed for a creature one size smaller without penalty. However, the space and reach of a pyroraptor remain those of a creature of their actual size. The benefits of this racial trait stack with the effects of powers, abilities, and spells that change the subject's size category.

    Skills: A pyroraptor has a +8 racial bonus on Hide, Spot, and Survival skills.
