Skilled kizidhar mages and gardeners handcraft these lovely creatures as much for their shuyookhs' aesthetic pleasure as for their protection. Creating a snapdrake requires first painstakingly constructing a frame of living wood in the shape of a drake before weaving thousands of colorful snapdragon flowers into intricate patterns to form its body and scales. Once complete, snapdrakes often serve kizidhars as a combination of guards, pets, and decorations for as long as they are well fed.

A creature that enters the emanation must attempt a DC 25 Will save. On a failure, the target is Fascinated by the snapdrake and must use at least 1 action on its next turn to Stride closer to the snapdrake. On a success, the target is immune to the snapdrake's alluring scent for 1 hour.
Attack of Opportunity
Tail scythe only
Trigger A creature within the monster's reach uses a manipulate action or a move action, makes a ranged attack, or leaves a square during a move action it's using.
Effect The monster attempts a melee Strike against the triggering creature. If the attack is a critical hit and the trigger was a manipulate action, the monster disrupts that action. This Strike doesn't count toward the monster's multiple attack penalty, and its multiple attack penalty doesn't apply to this Strike.
The snapdrake breathes a blast of pollen in a 40-foot cone. Creatures caught in the blast must succeed at a DC 25 basic Reflex save or be exposed to snapdrake pollen.
The snapdrake can't use Spray Pollen again for 1d6 rounds.
Grab
Requirements The monster's last action was a successful Strike that lists Grab in its damage entry, or the monster has a creature Grabbed or Restrained
Effect If used after a Strike, the monster attempts to Grapple the creature using the body part it attacked with. This attempt neither applies nor counts toward the creature's multiple attack penalty.
The monster can instead use Grab and choose one creature it's grabbing or restraining with an appendage that has Grab to automatically extend that condition to the end of the monster's next turn.
