[b]Smite Evil (Su):[/b] Once per day, this creature can make a normal melee attack to deal +12 extra damage against an evil foe.

[b]Blindsense (Ex):[/b] A whale notices and locates creatures within 120 feet. Opponents still have 100% concealment against a creature with blindsense.

[b]Hold Breath (Ex):[/b] A whale can hold its breath for a number of rounds equal to 8 × its Constitution score before it risks drowning.

[b]Skills:[/b] A whale has a +4 racial bonus on Spot and Listen checks. These bonuses are lost if its blindsense is negated. A whale has a +8 racial bonus on any Swim check to perform some special action or avoid a hazard. It can always take 10 on a Swim check. It can use the run action while swimming, provided it swims in a straight line.

[b]Celestial template:[/b] Applied to the base creature (see [url:https://www.d20srd.org/srd/monsters/celestialCreature.htm]Celestial Creature[/url]). Animals and vermin become magical beasts; Intelligence is at least 3; darkvision 60 ft.; energy resistance, DR, and SR by Hit Dice; natural weapons count as magic for overcoming DR when the creature has DR.
