Apian Emissaries (Sp)

The Bee-Man can use bees to duplicate the effect of prying eyes or whispering wind at will (caster level 13th). A successful DC 15 Perception check identifies the presence of the bees that act as the sensors for these spells, but a DC 20 Knowledge (nature) check is required to realize they are behaving under outside influence.

Poison (Ex)

Type injury (slam); save Fort DC 23; frequency 1/ round for 6 rounds; effect 1d4 Str; cure 2 consecutive saves.

Swarmlike (Ex)

The Bee-Man exists as a hive mind controlling a body of swarming bees. He is immune to any physical spell or effect that targets a specific number of creatures (including single-target spells). This immunity doesn’t apply to spells and effects generated by the Bee-Man himself, nor to mind-affecting effects that target single creatures. The Bee-Man takes half again as much damage (+50%) from damaging area effects. He is also susceptible to high winds and is treated as a Diminutive creature for the purposes of determining wind effects.

The Bee-Man can be targeted by spells as if he were a creature of the vermin type.

Taboo Name (Su)

Whenever the Bee-Man’s real name is spoken within 13 miles, he hears it as if using clairaudience/clairvoyance. He also learns the speaker’s direction and distance.
