For every 5 feet (or fraction thereof) of earth the stinger moves through, it suffers 1d3 points of damage. If a stinger's planned movement would place it inside a solid object, it remains in place but suffers the damage as if it had moved through the intervening earth. Stingers use their bolthole magic to move between previously prepared tunnels and the surface above, or sequences of tunnels, stacked one beneath the other. ### Feats (Ex) Stingers have Improved Initiative as a bonus feat. Stingers' tremorsense, bolthole magic ability, and excellent initiative frequently enable them to get in the first strike in any combat encounter. They hope to weaken their enemies with their poison sting. ### Poison (Ex) Sting—Injury; save Fort DC 14; frequency 1/round for 6 rounds; effect 1d2 Strength damage; cure 2 consecutive saves. The DC save is Constitution-based. ### Tremorsense (Ex) Stingers can automatically sense the location of anything within 60 feet that is in contact with the ground.
