Spiky Shell

Sea Urchins have incredibly thick and spiky shells that provide an Armor Class of 1. Any successful attack against a sea urchin results in the attacker taking 1d6-1 damage due to the spikes.

Latch Onto An Enemy

Instead of an attack sea urchins can latch onto an enemy, which needs to take a Save vs Paralysis to avoid it. If the enemy fails its saving throw, the sea urchin deals an automatic point of damage equal to its level to them upon contact, and at the beginning of every round of combat that it stays latched onto.

An enemy with a sea urchin latched onto it must make a Save vs Paralysis in order to do any other action except attack the sea urchin in attempt to dislodge it.

An ally can also latch a sea urchin onto an enemy using a successful attack roll instead. Doing so deals 1 point of damage to the ally handling the sea urchin.

Once a sea urchin is is latched onto an enemy it can't dislodge itself without also making a successful Save vs Paralysis.

Carrying Capacity

Sea Urchins can jam small objects in between their spikes which lets them carry up to 3 small items. They have no way to grab onto any items otherwise.
