Unless the chaos is somehow neutralized, the glob deals another 10d4 points of damage every subsequent round for 11 rounds. Creatures protected against chaos, such as by a magic circle against chaos spell, take half damage.
### Chaos Touch (Ex)
On a successful tongue melee attack, the slaad deals 10d4 points of chaotic damage. Unless the chaos infecting the wound is neutralized, it deals another 5d4 points of chaotic damage each subsequent round for 11 rounds. Creatures protected against chaos, such as by a magic circle against chaos spell, take half damage.
### Stun (Ex)
A black slaad can make attack as if it had the Stunning Fist feat eleven times per day. The Fortitude save DC is 34. The black slaad can stun with its tongues as well as its claws.
### Weaponbreaker (Ex)
When a black slaad uses its Sunder feat, it rolls damage twice and takes the higher of the two rolls as the roll to break the weapon.

Slaadi are well-known representatives of planes ofunstable form and energy, though the more powerfulwhite and black slaadi are less recognized.Like their lesser cousins, white and black slaadi arecreatures of chaos, and somewhat resemble humanoidtoads of terrible aspect. Some black and white slaadihave variant physical features.All slaadi speak their own language, Slaad. White and blackslaadi also speak Abyssal, Common, Celestial, and Infer-nal, and in addition can communicate telepathically.A white slaad that survives for more than a centuryretreats into isolation for at least a year. It returns as alarger, stronger form of slaad—the black. The power ofa black slaad eclipses that of some abominations andmany of the oldest wyrms. A black slaad is a blot of dark-ness, a toad-shaped-void from which only two evil starsof its eyes gleam.
