'''Neutral Large Animal''' {{Creature|title1 = Inix|image1 = Inix2.jpg|size_(2e) = |sub-type_(2e) = |alignment_(2e) = |activity_cycle = |diet = Vegetarian|language = None|climate = Sandy Wastes|terrain = Warm Plains, Tablelands|length = 14-16 feet long|skin_color = Dark in coloration (white, grey, brown, black and green) and yellow-red tones.|height = |weight = 4.000 pounds|first_appearance = |size_(5e) = Large|type_(5e) = Animal|sub-type_(5e) = Lizard|alignment_(5e) = Neutral|lifespan = up to 50 years old|vision = Low-Light Vision}} Widely used as a beast of burden, the '''Inix''' is a long, low slung reptile noted for its feats of strength. Tough, plodding and slow to anger. This large lizard has a long, curling tail and a broad mouth that looks quite capable of swallowing a [[Halfling]] in a single gulp. '''Inixes''' inhabit warm plains, or in domesticated herds near to large settlements. Inixes are herbivorous, needing large amounts of vegetation and must forage every few hours to maintain its strength. They are hunted by most intelligent creatures of [[Athas]], as well as [[tagster|Tagsters]]. Inixes can live up to 50 years, but in the wild a life span of 20 to 30 years is more typical. Inixes rarely remain in one place for long, settling only to lay eggs in burrows cut into the side of a hill or in the abandoned nesting mounds of other creatures. Inixes eggs are about 2 feet in diameter, which they lay in egg wells, small holes dug underground. A typical clutch contains an average of 20 eggs which have an incubation period of 7-8 months. A typical inix stands between 14 and 16 feet long and weighs around 4,000 pounds. The inix's back is protected by a thick shell, while flexible scales cover its underside. Most inixes are dark in coloration, whites, greys, browns, blacks and greens featuring prominently. Many desert dwelling species also feature yellow-red tones. Camouflage ranges from bands and stripes to splotches, speckles and circles, and can change as the creature matures; juveniles sometimes being brighter than adults. ==Stats== ===5nd Edition / Pathfinder=== {| class="article-table" !STR !DEX !CON !INT !WIS !CHA |- |20 |15 |16 |2 |12 |6 |} {| class="article-table" !Base Atk !CMB !CMD !INIT !CR |- |<nowiki>+4</nowiki> |<nowiki>+10</nowiki> |22 |<nowiki>+2</nowiki> |3 |} *'''Feats:''' Alertness, Combat Reflexes, Dodge. *'''Skills:''' Perception +8, Sense Motive +8. *'''SQ''' Improved Carrying Capacity, Improved Grab, Swallow Whole. == Special Abilities == === Improved Carrying Capacity (Ex) === [[File:Inix.jpg|thumb|300x300px|Desert Inix]] An Inix's carrying capacity is double the normal for a creature of its Strength.
