Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the otyugh must hit a Medium-size or smaller opponent with a tentacle attack. If it gets a hold, it can constrict.

Disease (Ex): Filth fever [bite, Fortitude save (DC 12), incubation period 1d3 days; damage 1d3 temporary Dexterity and 1d3 temporary Constitution.]

Skills: *An otyugh receives a +8 racial bonus to Hide checks when in its lair, due to its natural coloration.
