forces the xorn to the surface, and, unless it succeeds on a Fortitude save against the DC of the spell, it also gains the [[rattled]] condition until the start of the caster's next turn.
 
At its discretion, a xorn can make its burrowing permanent, rather than instantly filling in behind it.  These tunnels are as strong as the xorn would like, up to the limit imposed by the existing terrain.  That is, a xorn can create a tunnel that caves in immediately, with a cross-section equal to that of the xorn, or a tunnel that is as strong as if the xorn hadn't removed the earth.  Using this ability takes a standard action, in addition to the move action which generated the path in the first place.
 
Creatures above a caving in tunnel must succeed at a DC {{Save-DC}} Reflex save to avoid falling in.  A creature that makes this save may choose to land on their feet in the new hole, or jump back to an adjacent square, if possible.  This is forced movement and doesn't provoke an attack of opportunity.  A creature which fails takes {{Special-Swift-Dmg}} points of falling damage and falls [[Prone]] into the hole.

| Ability-3-Description = A xorn is [[hardened]] against all physical damage (half damage) while it is standing upon the ground.  If anything causes the xorn to be [[quelled]], [[prone]], [[splayed]], or in any other way not ''standing'' on the ground, it loses this ability until it can regain its footing on solid ground.
