Poison Use (Ex): Dark stalkers are skilled in the use of poison and never risk accidentally poisoning themselves. Like their diminutive kin, the dark creepers, dark stalkers use black poison on their weapons and generally carry six doses on them.Black Smear—injury; save Fort DC 15; frequency 1/round for 6 rounds; effect 1d2 Str; cure 1 save. The poison DC is Constitution-based.
See in Darkness (Su): A dark stalker can see perfectly in darkness of any kind, including that created by deeper darkness.
Big brutes of the Dark Folk, usually kept at the side of the Dark Stalkers but occasionally sent on missions by their masters. As their name suggests they enforce the will of the Dark Stalkers on the world. They are the righteaous wrath of the Dark Stalkers and consider this their lot in life. Like their smaller Dark Creeper brethren life in service to the Dark Stalkers is a life fulfilled.
Author's Note: I saw a vague correlary between the Dark Folk and the Goblin races. But unlike the goblins the Dark Folk did not have a hulking brute role available to them such as the bugbear sometimes fulfills for the goblin hordes when directed by he hobgoblins. So I decided to make the Dark Enforcers to shore up this descrepency.

SPECIAL ABILITIES
Death Throes (Su): When a dark stalker is slain, its body combusts in a flash of white-hot flame. This acts like a fireball that deals 3d6 points of fire damage to all creatures within a 20-foot-radius burst. A DC 15 Reflex save halves this damage. A dark stalker's gear and treasure are unaffected by this explosion. This save is Constitution-based.Poison Use (Ex): Dark stalkers are skilled in the use of poison and never risk accidentally poisoning themselves. Like their diminutive kin, the dark creepers, dark stalkers use black poison on their weapons and generally carry six doses on them.Black Smear—injury; save Fort DC 15; frequency 1/round for 6 rounds; effect 1d2 Str; cure 1 save. The poison DC is Constitution-based.
See in Darkness (Su): A dark stalker can see perfectly in darkness of any kind, including that created by deeper darkness.
