LEGACY ITEM ABILITIES
All the following are legacy item abilities of Coral’s Bite. Dolphin’s Breath (Su): Beginning at 6th level, you can go an entire hour without needing to take a breath. However, if you don’t get a breath after that hour elapses, you must hold your breath or begin to drown (see Drowning, page 304 of the Dungeon Master’s Guide). Coral Armor (Su): At 7th level, you can command the coral from which Coral’s Bite is formed to envelop you in a protective exoskeleton while you wield the trident. The coral armor does not hinder you in any way, and it grants a +1 natural armor bonus to Armor Class. The natural armor bonus increases to +2 at 9th level and to +3 at 14th level. Water Breathing (Su): At 12th level and higher, you can breathe water freely, as if constantly under the effect of a water breathing spell. Caster level 10th.
