Darkvision 60ft.

Dex +2, Cha +1

Common and one other.

You possess a pair of additional rudimentary limbs that aid in climbing and are suitable for simple tasks. Treat these limbs as having a strength and dexterity rating equal to one fourth of your normal rating. These limbs cannot wield weapons or shields or do anything that requires manual dexterity, such as using tools or magic items or performing the somatic components of a spell.

Through sound, scent, and body language, you can comprehend and communicate with insects and similar creatures, including other Iktomi. The knowledge and awareness of many beings is limited by their intelligence.

Rather than sleeping when you would rest, you enter a state of torpor that leaves you semiconscious and aware of your surroundings. While in torpor you remain almost entirely still. After resting in this way, you gain the same benefit that a human does from a similar amount of sleep.

You have a flying speed of 30 feet. You can’t use your flying speed while wearing medium or heavy armor. (If your campaign uses the variant rule for encumbrance, you can’t use your flying speed if you are encumbered.) You fall if you do not end your turn on the ground or secured to another surface, as your wings cannot bear you aloft for an extended period.
