[b]Improved Grab (Ex):[/b] To use this ability, a giant squid must hit an opponent of any size with a tentacle attack.

If it wins the grapple check, it establishes a hold and can constrict. *A giant squid has a +4 racial bonus on grapple checks.

[b]Ink Cloud (Ex):[/b] A giant squid can emit a cloud of jet-black ink 20 feet high by 20 feet wide by 20 feet long once per minute as a free action. The cloud provides total concealment.
