Pathfinder 1e Trait Race_Package

Sticky Tendrils

Gain non-magical spider climb on handholds and glide without falling damage, but lose true flight. Replaces fly speed.

When a gathlain seed finds itself taking root in an environment that warps and changes erratically, the resulting gathlain learns to cling tenaciously with its vines. You can cling to walls and even ceilings as long as the surface has handholds, and it is treated as being constantly under the effects of a non-magical spider climb spell (except that you may not cling to smooth surfaces). Your vines provide only the ability to glide rather than true flight; you take no damage from falling, as if subject to a constant non-magical feather fall spell. While in midair, you can move up to 5 feet horizontally for every 1 foot you fall, at a speed of 60 feet per round. You cannot gain height with your wings, but instead coast in other directions as you fall. If subjected to strong winds or any other effect that causes you to rise, you can take advantage of this updraft to increase the distance you can glide. This racial trait replaces your fly speed.
