### Launch Spikes (Su)
An adult or older spiked sea serpent is capable of launching one of its spikes every round as a ranged weapon, up to a maximum often times per day. Treat the spike as a ranged weapon with a range increment of 50 feet. It causes the same damage as a bite from the spiked serpent, but it receives no Strength modifier on damage rolls and uses the spiked sea serpent's Dexterity modifier on the attack rolls.
### Maddening Spikes (Su)
At the old age category, spiked sea serpents gain the ability to incite madness through the toxin in their spikes. Any living creature wounded by a launched spike or through a constrict attack must also made a Will save (DC equal to 10 + 1/2 dragon's HD + dragon's Con modifier) or become maddened for 1d6 rounds. During this time, the creature acts as if under the effects of confusion. This is a poison effect.
### Spiked Body (Ex)
Due to the razor-sharp spikes all along their bodies, spiked sea serpents cause damage with constrict attacks as a sea serpent one size category larger. Colossal spiked sea serpents deal 8d8 points of damage on a constrict attack. One half of a spiked sea serpent's constrict damage is piercing while the other half is bludgeoning.
### Wounding Spikes (Ex)
A spiked sea serpents spikes develop jagged edges at the very young age. Any time it deals damage with a constrict attack against a living opponent that opponent starts to bleed, taking half the serpent's Strength modifier (minimum 1) in additional damage every round. This continuing blood loss can be stopped by a DC 20 Heal check, a cure spell, or a heal spell. This bleeding is not cumulative with itself.
