Special Abilities
Furnace Flare (Su) When a mythic remorhaz confirms a critical hit, its internal heat flares in intensity, dealing 8d10 points of damage until the beginning of its next turn. In addition, a mythic remorhaz can expend one use of its mythic power to as a move action to increase the intensity of its heat for 3 rounds, allowing it to bypass fire resistance or immunity.
Heat (Su) An enraged remorhaz generates heat so intense that anything touching its body takes 8d6 points of fire damage. Creatures striking a remorhaz with natural attacks or unarmed strikes are subject to this damage, but creatures striking with melee weapons are not. The heat can melt or burn weapons; any weapon that strikes a remorhaz is allowed a DC 22 Fortitude save to avoid taking damage. The save DC is Constitution-based.
Tunnel Worm (Ex) When burrowing, a mythic remorhaz can take a move action and a standard action at any point during its movement. It cannot use that standard action to take another move action. If it uses that standard action to perform an Awesome Blow, it can pull a creature along with it during its movement after it attacks, rather than pushing the target away from it. If the mythic remorhaz pulls a creature 5 or more feet below ground level, the character is treated as if in the slide zone of a cave-in, as described in Chapter 13 of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Core Rulebook, taking 3d6 points of bludgeoning damage and becoming buried (DC 15 Reflex negates).
