Also known as sperm whales, these creatures can be up to 60 feet long. They prey on [[SRD:Giant Type|giant]] squids.

'''[[ SRD:Blindsight and Blindsense|Blindsight]] ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''' Whales can “see” by emitting high-frequency sounds, inaudible to most other creatures, that allow them to [[SRD:Locate Object|locate object]]s and creatures within 120 feet. A ''[[SRD:Silence|silence]]'' spell negates this and forces the whale to rely on its vision, which is approximately as good as a human’s.

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

'''[[SRD:Skills (Creature Statistic)|Skills:]]''' A whale has a +8 racial bonus on any [[SRD:Swim Skill|Swim]] check to perform some special action or avoid a hazard. It can always choose to take 10 on a [[SRD:Swim Skill|Swim]] check, even if distracted or endangered. It can use the run action while swimming, provided it swims in a straight line. *A whale has a +4 racial bonus on [[SRD:Spot Skill|Spot]] and [[SRD:Listen Skill|Listen]] checks. These bonuses are lost if its [[ SRD:Blindsight and Blindsense|blindsight]] is negated.
