SPECIAL ABILITIES

Protect Ally (Ex)

The troop provides soft cover to allies sharing its space. Such allies treat squares occupied by the troop as difficult terrain, must succeed at a concentration check (DC = 15 + spell level) to cast spells while so protected, and don’t take troop damage from being within the troop’s space.

ECOLOGY

Environment any land
Organization solitary or band (2–4)
Treasure standard

While individually not much of a threat, these low-level fighters turn into a serious menace to travelers on remote roads when they work together as a troop.
