===COMBAT===
Compsognathus can be aggressive, using pack tacics to surround and down larger prey. The alpha confronts the prey from the front, while the rest of the pack quietly surrounds the prey. once surrounded, the Compy pack attacks as a group delivering miniscule bites loaded with a neurotoxin.

{{Anchor|Poison}} {{Ex}}: The compsognathus has a poisonous bite that causes [[SRD:Sleep|sleep]] in affected victims. The [[Fortitude|Fort]] save DC varies by size as shown by table below and is [[SRD:Constitution|Con]]-based.
