In another thread I whipped up some monsters with both spellcasting powers and constriction, and it occurred to me that constricting monsters should be able to constrict automatically (beyond the first round), leaving them free to make other attacks/cast spells/etc.
Reflexive Constriction [General]
Once you've established a hold on an enemy you can crush them with very little thought.
Prerequisites
Constrict special attack, improved grab ability, and either Improved Grapple or MultigrabSK.
SKSerpent Kingdoms
Benefits
While you have established a hold on a creature, you may make grapple checks to constrict that creature as free actions (you may only make one such check each turn for each creature you are grappling). You are otherwise free to cast spells, make attacks, and perform other actions. This feat does not allow you to grapple more than one creature though the improved grab ability.
Normal
Only the first grapple you initiate with the improved grab ability is a free action.
