CombatKocrachon prefer to leave fighting to other creatures.

If it gets a hold, it can use its cause disease ability.Cause Disease (Ex): If a kocrachon is able to maintain its hold for 3 rounds, it transmits a disease (Devil Chills) to its victim. The victim must make an immediate Fortitude save (DC 14) to resist the infection. If the fail saves, the character begins taking damage (1d4 temporary Strength) after a 1d4 day incubation period.

A kocrachon can use this ability 3 times per day.Pain (Ex): As a full-round action, a kocrachon can attempt to cause pain with their scalpel. By making only one attack, they can lay an opponent open to the bone or find the sensitive point in the exoskeleton, depending on the race of the creature.
