[b]Druid companion list:[/b] Base (1st)

[b]Poison (Ex):[/b] Injury, Fortitude DC 10, initial and secondary damage 1d6 Con. The save DC is Constitution-based.

[b]Skills:[/b] Snakes have a +4 racial bonus on Hide, Listen, and Spot checks and a +8 racial bonus on Balance and Climb checks. A snake can always take 10 on Climb and Swim checks. A snake uses either its Strength modifier or Dexterity modifier for Climb checks, whichever is higher. Snakes have a +8 racial bonus on any Swim check to perform some special action or avoid a hazard.

[b]Companion note:[/b] A 1st-level druid’s companion is completely typical for its kind. As the druid advances, the companion gains bonus HD, natural armor, Str/Dex, tricks, and special abilities per the [url:https://www.d20srd.org/srd/classes/druid.htm#animalCompanion]Druid animal companion table[/url]. Alternative-list animals use the level adjustment in parentheses when determining those powers.

[i]These creatures range widely in size. They are not particularly aggressive, but will often lash out with a bite when threatened.[/i]
