Starspawn
starspawn into an adjacent space. This is a full-round
action but does not provoke an attack of opportunity.
Hibernation (Ex) If a starspawn remains at a negative
hit point total for more than ten consecutive rounds, it
enters a state of hibernation. Its regeneration continues
to function, but it does not immediately wake if it
regenerates enough to gain positive hit points. Instead,
a hibernating starspawn remains in its comatose state
for 24 hours. If it is still at a negative hit point total at that
time, it remains in hibernation for another 24 hours, and
so on. Unless its regeneration is suppressed, it cannot die
and will, in time, outlast those who seek to force it into
hibernation.
Immobility (Ex) A starspawn can reflexively adjust its
mass at will, so that it is effectively impossible to move
against its will. A starspawn cannot be bull rushed,
knocked down, tripped, or otherwise physically moved
via a combat maneuver unless it wishes to be, and gains
a +8 racial saving throw against all effects that attempt to
move it, including teleportation effects it wishes to resist.
