Spines (Ex) A great diadem urchin’s spines can swivel to face any approaching creature. Any creature that attacks a great diadem urchin with an unarmed strike or a natural attack, or any Large or smaller creature that attacks with a onehanded weapon or light weapon, is automatically attacked by the hunter urchin’s spines as an immediate action. If the spines hit, they can poison the target as well.DescriptionEnormous and brilliantly colored diadem urchins are often sought after by terrestrial collectors or aquatic creatures seeking to simultaneously decorate and defend their throne rooms, yet such beasts are never truly trainable, and attack anyone who comes close.Creatures in "Sea Urchin, Giant" Category
