Snake Familiar Features

The Snake form of a familiar has the following abilities:

Stealthy Movement: The familiar gets a +5 nature bonus to Stealth. It makes no sound when moving.
Climbing: The familiar can trivially climb any rough vertical surface, such as the bark of a tree or a stone block wall.
Tight Fit: The familiar can enter any space large enough to fit a creature up to 3 sizes smaller than itself.
Strike: The familiar can bite enemies for 1d8 Piercing damage. If poised to strike, the damage increases to 2d8. The damage increases by 2 for every degree of amplification.

Venom

At Level 9, your snake familiar gains the ability to Envenomate targets when summoned at level 9 or higher. This attack inflicts the Poisoned status effect and always hits when the familiar has already grappled a creature.

In Many Sizes

Starting at Level 13, whenever you summon your familiar, you can choose any size from -9 to +2 for your familiar's form to take. This size change affects your familiar's passive agility. At sizes -4 to 0, the reach of its Strike attack deals +1d damage and its reach increases by 4 feet; at sizes +1 to +2, the attack deals +2d damage and its reach increases by 8 feet.

When summoned at level 12 or higher, your familiar gains a Constrict action in which it wraps itself around a target up to 3 sizes larger than itself.

Rapid Strike

At Level 18, your familiar gains improved reflexes and speed in combat. It gains the ability to Strike up to two targets in a single frame, and the attack is exempt from the repetition tax.

(You perform two Strike actions in one frame. Each attack check must be rolled separately and can target the same or different creatures. This action can't be combined with other features that allow multiple actions in one frame.)

Giant Serpent

Starting at Level 23, you can summon your familiar at any size up to +9. For each size above +2, its Strike attack deals +1d damage (in addition to the extra damage from the In Many Sizes feature), and the attack's reach increases by 4 feet.
