Combat

A darkmantle attacks by dropping onto its prey and wrapping its tentacles around the opponent’s head. Once attached, it squeezes and tries to suffocate the foe. A darkmantle that misses its initial attack often flies up and tries to drop on the opponent again.

Darkness (Su): Once per day a darkmantle can cause darkness as the spell cast by a 5th-level sorcerer. It most often uses this ability just before attacking.

Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the darkmantle must hit with its slam attack. If it gets a hold, it can constrict.

Constrict (Ex): A darkmantle deals 1d4+4 damage with a successful grapple check.

Blindsight: A darkmantle can "see" by emitting high-frequency sounds, inaudible to most other creatures, that allows it to ascertain objects and creatures within 90 feet. A silence spell negates this and effectively blinds the darkmantle.

Skills: A darkmantle receives a +4 racial bonus to Listen and Spot checks. *This bonus is lost if its blindsight is negated. The creature’s variable coloration gives it a +4 racial bonus to Hide checks.

Delvers speak Terran and Undercommon.

Combat

Delvers prefer to fight from their tunnels, which they use to protect their flanks while lashing out with their flippers.

Corrosive Slime (Ex): Delvers produce a mucuslike slime that contains a highly corrosive substance. The slime is particularly effective against stone. A delver’s mere touch deals 2d6 points of damage to organic creatures or objects. Against metallic creatures or objects, a delver’s slime deals 4d8 points of damage, and against stony creatures (including earth elementals) or objects it deals 8d10 points of damage. A slam attack by a delver leaves a patch of slime that deals 2d6 points of damage on contact and another 2d6 points of damage in each of the next 2 rounds. A large quantity (at least a quart) of water or weak acid, such as vinegar, washes off the slime. An opponent’s armor and clothing dissolve and become useless immediately unless the wearer succeeds at a Reflex save (DC 22). Weapons that strike a delver also dissolve immediately unless the wielder succeeds at a Reflex save (DC 22). Creatures attacking the delver with natural weapons take damage from the slime each time their attacks hit unless they succeed at Reflex saves (DC 22).

Tremorsense (Ex): A delver can automatically sense the location of anything within 60 feet that is in contact with the ground.

Stone Shape (Ex): A delver can alter its slime to temporarily soften stone instead of dissolving it. Once every 10 minutes, a delver can soften and shape up to 25 cubic feet of stone, as stone shape cast by a 15th-level druid.

Except where noted below, all demons speak Infernal, Celestial, and Draconic.

Combat

Summon Demon (Sp): Some demons can summon other demons much as though casting a summon monster spell, but they have only a limited chance of success. Roll d%: On a failure, no demons answer the summons. Summoned creatures automatically return whence they came after 1 hour. A demon that has just been summoned cannot use its own summon ability for 1 hour.

Dretch

Spell-Like Abilities: At will-darkness, scare, and telekinesis; 1/day-stinking cloud. These abilities are as the spells cast by a 2nd-level sorcerer (save DC 10 + spell level).

Summon Demon (Sp): Once per day a dretch can attempt to summon another dretch with a 35% chance of success.

Telepathy (Su): Dretches can communicate telepathically with creatures within 100 feet that speak Abyssal.

Quasit

Spell-Like Abilities: At will-detect good, detect magic, and invisibility (self only); 1/day-cause fear (as the spell, except that its area is a 30-foot radius from the quasit). These abilities are as the spells cast by a 6th-level sorcerer (save DC 10 + spell level).

Once per week a quasit can use commune to ask six questions (this is otherwise as the spell cast by a 12th-level cleric).

Poison (Ex): Claw, Fortitude save DC 13 (including a +2 racial bonus); initial damage 1d4 temporary Dexterity, secondary damage 2d4 temporary Dexterity.

Alternate Form (Su): A quasit can assume other forms at will as a standard action. This ability functions as polymorph self cast by a 12th-level sorcerer, except that any individual quasit can assume only one or two forms no larger than Medium-size. Regeneration (Ex): Quasits take normal damage from acid, and from holy and blessed weapons.

Succubus

Spell-Like Abilities: At will-charm monster, clairaudience/ clairvoyance, darkness, desecrate, detect good, detect thoughts, doom, ethereal jaunt (self plus 50 pounds of objects only), suggestion, and teleport without error (self plus 50 pounds of objects only); 1/day unholy blight. These abilities are as the spells cast by a 12th-level sorcerer (save DC 15 + spell level).

Energy Drain (Su): A succubus drains energy from a mortal it lures into some act of passion, or by simply planting a kiss on the victim. If the target is not willing to be kissed, the succubus must start a grapple, which provokes an attack of opportunity. The succubus’s kiss or embrace inflicts one negative level; the victim must succeed at a Wisdom check (DC 15) to even notice. The Fortitude save to remove the negative level has a DC of 18.

Summon Demon (Sp): Once per day a succubus can attempt to summon one balor with a 10% chance of success.

Telepathy (Su): Succubi can communicate telepathically with any creature within 100 feet that has a language.

Alternate Form (Su): Succubi can assume any humanoid form of Small to Large size as a standard action. This ability is similar to the polymorph self spell but allows only humanoid forms. While using this ability, a succubus gains a +10 circumstance bonus to Disguise checks.

Tongues (Su): A succubus has a permanent tongues ability as the spell cast by a 12th-level sorcerer.

Skills: Succubi receive a +8 racial bonus to Listen and Spot checks.

*When using alternate form, a succubus receives an additional +10 circumstance bonus to Disguise checks.

Bebilith

Bebiliths do not speak but understand Abyssal. Their telepathy allows them to communicate silently with one another.

Web (Ex): Four times per day a bebilith can shoot webs from its abdomen. This attack is like a web spell, with a few exceptions. The range is 30 feet, and the webs are permanent, nonmagical, and cannot be dispelled. The DC for evading or breaking free from the webs is 20, and there is a 75% chance that the webbing won’t burn if any sort of fire is applied to it (check each round).

Poison (Ex): Bite, Fortitude save (DC 20); initial damage 1d6 temporary Constitution, secondary damage 2d6 temporary Constitution. Bebilith venom is highly perishable, losing its potency and becoming inert almost as soon as it comes into contact with air.

Armor Damage (Ex): A bebilith’s claws can catch and tear an opponent’s armor. If the opponent has both armor and a shield, roll 1d6: A roll of 1-4 affects the armor and a roll of 5-6 affects the shield. Make a grapple check whenever the bebilith hits with a claw attack, adding to the opponent’s roll any magical bonus for the armor or shield. If the bebilith wins, the affected armor or shield is torn away and ruined.

Protective Aura (Su): A magic circle against chaos, evil, good, or law effect always surrounds a bebilith, identical with the spell cast by a 12th-level sorcerer. The bebilith can change the aura each round as a free action. The aura can be dispelled, but the bebilith can create it again during its next turn as a free action. (The defensive benefits from the aura are not included in the creature’s statistics.)

Plane Shift (Su): This ability affects only the bebilith. It is otherwise similar to the spell of the same name.

Skills: The bebilith’s mottled coloration gives it a +8 racial bonus to Hide checks.

Retriever

Eye Rays (Su): A retriever’s eyes can produce four different magical rays with a range of 100 feet. Each round, it can fire two rays, but an individual ray is usable only once every 6 rounds. It cannot fire rays in the same round as it makes physical attacks.

Each effect follows the rules for a ray. Save DC is 16.

The four eye effects are:

Fire: Deals 12d6 fire damage to the target and to all those within 5 feet (those nearby are allowed Reflex saves to halve the damage).

Cold: Deals 12d6 cold damage to the target.

Electricity: Deals 12d6 electricity damage to the target.

Petrification: The target must succeed at a Fortitude save or turn to stone permanently.

Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the retriever must hit with its bite attack. If it gets a hold, it holds the opponent fast in its mouth.

Find Target (Sp): When ordered to find an item or being, a retriever does so unerringly, as though guided by discern location.

Construct: Immune to mind-influencing effects, poison, disease, and similar effects. Not subject to critical hits, subdual damage, ability damage, energy drain, or death from massive damage.

Vrock

Spell-Like Abilities: At will: darkness, desecrate, detect good, detect magic, mass charm, mirror image, telekinesis, and teleport without error (self plus 50 pounds of objects only). These abilities are as the spells cast by a 12th-level sorcerer (save DC 11 + spell level).

Spores (Ex): A vrock can release masses of spores from its body once every 3 rounds. The spores automatically deal 1d8 points of damage to all creatures within 5 feet of the vrock. They then penetrate the skin and grow, dealing an additional 1d2 points of damage each round for 10 rounds. At the end of this time, the victim is covered with a tangle of viny growths. A delay poison spell stops the spores’ growth for its duration. Bless, neutralize poison, or remove disease kills the spores, as does sprinkling the victim with a vial of holy water.

Stunning Screech (Su): Once per hour a vrock can emit a piercing screech. Every creature within a 30-foot radius must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 17) or be stunned for 1 round.

Dance of Ruin (Su): To use this ability, a group of five or more vrocks join hands in a circle, dancing wildly and chanting. If they dance for 3 rounds, a wave of crackling energy flashes outward in a 100-foot radius. All nondemon creatures within the radius take 2d20 points of damage (Reflex half DC 15). Forcing the vrocks to break the circle stops the dance.

Summon Demon (Sp): Once per day a vrock can attempt to summon 2d10 dretches or another vrock with a 35% chance of success.

Telepathy (Su): Vrocks can communicate telepathically with any creature within 100 feet that has a language.

Skills: Vrocks receive a +8 racial bonus to Listen and Spot checks.

Hezrou

Spell-Like Abilities: At will-animate object, blasphemy, blink, chaos hammer, deeper darkness, desecrate, detect good, detect magic, dispel good, magic circle against good, produce flame, summon swarm, teleport without error (self plus 50 pounds of objects only), and unholy blight; 3/day-gaseous form. These abilities are as the spells cast by a 13th-level sorcerer (save DC 12 + spell level).

Stench (Ex): A hezrou’s skin produces a foul-smelling, toxic liquid whenever it fights. All creatures (except other demons) within 10 feet must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 17) or be overwhelmed by nausea. They are rendered helpless from gagging and vomiting for as long as they remain in the affected area and for 1d4 rounds afterward. Creatures who successfully save suffer a -2 morale penalty to attack rolls but cannot be affected again by the same hezrou’s stench for one day. A delay poison or neutralize poison spell removes the effect from one creature.

Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the hezrou must hit a Medium-size or smaller opponent with both claw attacks.

Summon Demon (Sp): Once per day a hezrou can attempt to summon 4d10 dretches or another hezrou with a 35% chance of success.

Half Damage (Ex): Any nonmagical attack against a hezrou, including hits from enchanted weapons, deals only half damage. This effect does not stack with the hezrou’s damage reduction; apply either the damage reduction or the half damage, whichever results in the least amount of damage suffered.

Telepathy (Su): Hezrous can communicate telepathically with any creature within 100 feet that has a language.

Skills: Hezrous receive a +8 racial bonus to Listen and Spot checks.

Glabrezu

Spell-Like Abilities: At will-burning hands, chaos hammer, charm person, confusion, death knell, deeper darkness, desecrate, detect good, dispel magic, enlarge, mirror image, reverse gravity, shatter, and unholy blight. These abilities are as the spells cast by a 10th-level sorcerer (save DC 13 + spell level).

A glabrezu also can teleport without error (self plus 50 pounds of objects only) at will as the spell cast by a 12th-level sorcerer. Seven times per day it can cast power word, stun as a 15th-level sorcerer.

Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the glabrezu must hit a Medium-size or smaller opponent with a pincer attack.

Summon Demon (Sp): Once per day a glabrezu can attempt to summon 4d10 dretches or 1d2 vrocks with a 50% chance of success, or another glabrezu with a 20% chance of success.

Detect Magic (Su): Glabrezu continuously detect magic as the spell cast by a 12th-level sorcerer.

True Seeing (Su): Glabrezu continuously use true seeing as the spell cast by a 12th-level cleric.

Telepathy (Su): Glabrezu can communicate telepathically with any creature within 100 feet that has a language.

Skills: Glabrezu receive a +8 racial bonus to Listen and Spot checks.

Nalfeshnee

Spell-Like Abilities: At will-alter self, call lightning, chaos hammer, chill touch, death knell, deeper darkness, desecrate, detect magic, feeblemind, greater dispelling, invisibility (self only), magic circle against good (self only), mirror image, raise dead, slow, teleport without error (self plus 50 pounds of objects only), unholy aura, unholy blight, and web. These abilities are as the spells cast by a 12th-level sorcerer (save DC 13 + spell level).

Smite (Su): Three times per day a nalfeshnee can create a nimbus of unholy light. When the demon triggers the ability, rainbow-colored beams play around its body. One round later they burst in a 60-foot radius. Affected creatures take 15 points of damage (Reflex half DC 18). They also must succeed at a Will save (DC 18) or be in a stupor for 1d10 rounds as visions of their worst fears hound them. They receive full Dexterity and shield bonuses to AC if attacked but can take no actions. Other demons are immune to this effect.

Summon Demon (Sp): Twice per day a nalfeshnee can attempt to summon 1d4 vrocks, 1d4 hezrous, or one glabrezu with a 50% chance of success, or another nalfeshnee with a 20% chance of success.

Know Alignment (Su): Nalfeshnees always know the alignment of any creature that they look upon.

See Invisibility (Su): Nalfeshnees continuously see invisibility as the spell cast by a 12th-level sorcerer.

Telepathy (Su): Nalfeshnees can communicate telepathically with any creature within 100 feet that has a language.

Skills: Nalfeshnees receive a +8 racial bonus to Listen and Spot checks.

Marilith

Spell-Like Abilities: At will-animate dead, bestow curse, chaos hammer, cloudkill, comprehend languages, darkness, desecrate, detect good, detect law, detect magic, inflict serious wounds, magic circle against good (self only), magic weapon, project image, polymorph self, pyrotechnics, see invisibility, shatter, telekinesis, teleport without error (self plus 50 pounds of objects only), unholy aura, and unholy blight. These abilities are as the spells cast by a 13th-level sorcerer (save DC 13 + spell level).

Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the marilith must hit a Medium-size or smaller opponent with its tail slam attack. If it succeeds, it can constrict.

Constrict (Ex): A marilith deals 4d6+7 points of damage with a successful grapple check against Medium-size or smaller creatures. The constricted creature must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 19) or lose consciousness for at long as it remains in the coils and for 2d4 rounds thereafter.

Summon Demon (Sp): Once per day a marilith can attempt to summon 4d10 dretches, 1d4 hezrou, or one nalfeshnee with a 50% chance of success, or one glabrezu or another marilith with a 20% chance of success.

Telepathy (Su): Mariliths can communicate telepathically with any creature within 100 feet that has a language.

Skills: Mariliths receive a +8 racial bonus to Listen and Spot checks.

Feats: A marilith receives the Multidexteriry and Multiweapon Fighting feats as bonus feats. In combination with its natural abilities, these feats allow the marilith to attack with all its arms at no penalty.

Balor

Spell-Like Abilities: At will-blasphemy, deeper darkness, desecrate, detect good, detect law, fear, greater dispelling, pyrotechnics, read magic, suggestion, symbol (any), telekinesis, teleport without error (self plus 50 pounds of objects only), tongues (self only), unhallow, unholy aura, unholy blight, and wall of fire; 1/day-fire storm and implosion. These abilities are as the spells cast by a 20th-level sorcerer (save DC 13 + spell level).

Fear (Su): A creature hit by a balor’s slam attack must succeed at a Will save (DC 19) or flee in terror for 1d6 rounds.

Entangle (Ex): A balor’s whip entangles foes much like an attack with a net. The whip has a maximum range of 40 feet, with a range increment of 10 feet, and 20 hit points. The whip needs no folding. If it hits, the target and the balor immediately make opposed Strength checks; if the balor wins, it drags the target against its flaming body (see below). The target remains anchored against the balor’s body until it escapes the whip.

Body Flames (Su): Balors can wreathe their bodies in roaring flames as a free action. The balor suffers no harm, but anyone grappling with it takes 4d6 points of fire damage each round.

Vorpal Sword (Su): Every balor carries a +1 vorpal greatsword. The sword also has the spell-like ability to detect good as cast by a 12th-level sorcerer, except that its range is 30 feet.

Detect Magic (Su): Balors continuously detect magic as the spell cast by a 20th-level sorcerer.

See Invisibility (Su): Balors continuously see invisibility as the spell cast by a 20th-level sorcerer.

Telepathy (Su): Balors can communicate telepathically with any creature within 100 feet that has a language.

Skills: Balors receive a +8 racial bonus to Listen and Spot checks.

Except where noted below, all devils speak Infernal, Celestial, and Draconic.

Combat

Summon Devil (Sp): Some devils can summon other devils much as though casting a summon monster spell, but they have only a limited chance of success.

A devil that has just been summoned cannot use its own summon ability for 1 hour.

Lemure

See in Darkness (Su): Lemures can see perfectly in darkness of any kind, even that created by deeper darkness spells.

Mindless (Ex): Lemures are immune to all mind-influencing effects.

Imp

Spell-Like Abilities: At will: detect good, detect magic, and invisibility (self only); 1/day-suggestion. These abilities are as the spells cast by a 6th-level sorcerer (save DC 10 + spell level).

Once per week an imp can use commune to ask six questions. The ability otherwise works as the spell cast by a 12th-level cleric.

Poison (Ex): Sting, Fortitude save (DC 13); initial damage 1d4 temporary Dexterity, secondary damage 2d4 temporary Dexterity.

Polymorph (Su): An imp can assume other forms at will as a standard action.

Common forms include monstrous spider, raven, rat, and boar.

Regeneration (Ex): Imps take normal damage from acid, and from holy and blessed weapons (if silver or enchanted).

Osyluth

Spell-Like Abilities: At will-animate dead, charm person, dimensional anchor, doom, fly, invisibility (self only), major image, suggestion, and wall of ice. These abilities are as the spells cast by a 7th-level sorcerer (save DC 12 + spell level).

An osyluth can also teleport without error (self plus 50 pounds of objects only) at will as the spell cast by a 12th-level sorcerer.

Fear Aura (Su): Osyluths can radiate a 5-foot-radius fear aura as a free action. Affected creatures must succeed at a Will save (DC 14) or be affected as though by a fear spell cast by a 7th-level sorcerer. A creature that successfully saves cannot be affected again by the same osyluth’s aura for one day. Other baatezu are immune to the aura.

Poison (Ex): Sting, Fortitude save (DC 14); initial damage 1d6 temporary Strength, secondary damage 2d6 temporary Strength.

Summon Devil (Sp): Once per day an osyluth can attempt to summon 2d10 lemures with a 50% chance of success, or another osyluth with a 35% chance of success.

Kyton

Kytons speak Infernal and Common.

Dancing Chains (Su): A kyton has the ability to control all chains within 20 feet as a standard action, making them move as it wishes. In addition, the kyton can increase the chains’ length by up to 15 feet and cause them to sprout razor-edged barbs. These chains attack as effectively as the kyton itself.

A kyton can climb chains it controls at its normal speed without a Climb check.

Unnerving Gaze (Su): A kyton can make its face resemble one of the opponent’s departed loved ones or bitter enemies. Those subjected to the gaze must succeed at a Will save (DC 15) or suffer a -1 morale penalty to all attack rolls for 1d3 rounds.

Regeneration (Ex): Kytons take normal damage from fire, acid, and blessed weapons (if they have at least +2 magical enhancement). A kyton that loses a piece of its body regrows it in 2d6x10 minutes. Holding the severed member against the stump enables it to reattach instantly.

Skills: Kytons receive a +8 racial bonus to Craft skills involving metalwork.

Hellcat

Hellcats use a natural telepathy to communicate with one another and those they encounter.

Pounce (Ex): If a hellcat leaps upon a foe during the first round of combat, it can make a full attack even if it has already taken a move action.

Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the hellcat must hit with its bite attack. If it gets a hold, it can rake.

Rake (Ex): A hellcat can make two rake attacks (+12 melee) against a held creature with its hind legs for 1d4+3 damage each. If the hellcat pounces on an opponent, it can also rake.

Invisible in Light (Ex): A hellcat is invisible in any area lit well enough for a human to see. In a darkened area, it shows up as a faintly glowing outline visible up to 30 feet away (60 feet if the viewer has low-light vision). Magical darkness smothers the glow and conceals the outline.

Skills: Hellcats receive a +4 racial bonus to Listen and Move Silently checks.

Barbazu

Barbazu also can induce fear by touch as the spell, except it affects only the creature touched. These abilities are as cast by an 8th-level sorcerer (save DC 10 + spell level).

A barbazu can teleport without error (self plus 50 pounds of objects only) at will as the spell cast by a 12th-level sorcerer.

Wound (Su): A hit from a barbazu’s glaive causes a bleeding wound. The injured creature loses 2 additional hit points each round until the wound is bound (a DC 10 Heal check) or the creature dies. This is an ability of the barbazu, not of the weapon.

Beard (Ex): If a barbazu hits a single opponent with both claw attacks, it automatically hits with its beard. The affected creature must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 14) or be infected with a disease called devil chills (incubation period 1d4 days, damage 1d4 points of temporary Strength). Damage is dealt each day until the afflicted creature succeeds at three consecutive Fortitude saves, the disease is cured magically, or the creature dies.

Battle Frenzy (Ex): A barbazu can work itself into a battle frenzy similar to the barbarian’s rage ability (+4 Strength, +4 Constitution, +2 morale bonus to Will saves, -2 AC penalty), for a +2 morale bonus to attacks and damage and 12 extra hit points. The frenzy lasts 6 rounds, and the barbazu suffers no ill effects afterward.

Summon Devil (Sp): Once per day a barbazu can attempt to summon 2d10 lemures with a 50% chance of success, or another barbazu with a 35% chance of success.

See in Darkness (Su): Barbazu can see perfectly in darkness of any kind, even that created by deeper darkness spells.

An erinyes also can teleport without error (self plus 50 pounds of objects only) at will as the spell cast by a 12th-level sorcerer.

Charm Person (Su): An erinyes can charm a humanoid creature with a look. This is not a gaze attack, and the target need not meet the erinyes’s eye. The ability has a range of 60 feet; an affected opponent must succeed at a Will save (DC 18) or become utterly loyal to the erinyes. The victim will do anything to protect the erinyes, even if that means slaying his or her companions or facing certain death. The ability is otherwise similar to charm person cast by an 8th-level sorcerer.

Entangle (Ex): Each erinyes carries a stout rope some 50 feet long that entangles opponents of any size as an animate rope spell cast by a 16th-level sorcerer. The erinyes can hurl the rope 30 feet with no range penalty.

Summon Devil (Sp): Once per day an erinyes can attempt to summon 2d10 lemures with a 50% chance of success, or 1d4 barbazu with a 35% chance of success.

A hamatula can teleport without error (self plus 50 pounds of objects only) at will as the spell cast by a 12th-level sorcerer.

Fear (Su): A creature hit by a hamatula must succeed at a Will save (DC 14) or be affected as though by fear cast by a 9th-level sorcerer. Whether or not the save is successful, that creature cannot be affected again by that hamatula’s fear ability for one day.

Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the hamatula must hit with a claw attack. If it gets a hold, it can impale the opponent on its barbed body.

A destrachan speaks no language but understands Common. If one must communicate, it does so through action.

Combat

A destrachan uses its claws only as a last resort or to finish off foes weakened by its sonic attacks. Being extremely intelligent, it often enters battle with surprise if possible. It first focuses on destroying metal armor and weapons and then changes to harmonics that disrupt flesh.

Destructive Harmonics (Su): A destrachan can blast sonic energy in a cone up to 80 feet long. It can tune the harmonics of this destructive power to affect different types of targets.

Flesh: Disrupting tissue and rending bone, this horrible attack deals 4d6 points of damage to all within the cone (Reflex half DC 15).

Nerves: The destrachan can focus its harmonics to subdue rather than slay. This attack plays havoc with nerves and sensory systems, dealing 6d6 points of subdual damage to all within the cone (Reflex half DC 15).

Material: The destrachan chooses wood, stone, metal, or glass. All objects made of that material within the cone must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 15) or shatter. Objects (or portions of objects) that have up to 30 hit points are potentially affected by this attack.

Reverberating Harmonics (Su): The destrachan can use a wall, a ceiling, or even a floor to reflect any of the sonic attacks listed above (except those that would damage the reflecting surface). This attack affects all within 30 feet of the destrachan, which is immune to the effects of its own ability.

Blindsight (Ex): A destrachan can use hearing to ascertain all foes within 100 feet as a sighted creature would.

Protection from Sonics (Ex): While they can be affected by loud noises and sonic spells (such as ghost sound or silence), destrachans are less vulnerable to sound-based attacks (+4 circumstance bonus on all saves) because they can protect their ears. A destrachan whose sense of hearing is impaired is effectively blind, treating all targets as totally concealed.

Immunities: Destrachans are immune to gaze attacks, visual effects, illusions, and other attack forms that rely on sight.

Skills: With perhaps the most sophisticated auditory organs in existence, the destrachan gains a +10 racial bonus to Listen checks.

Combat

Energy Drain (Su): Living creatures hit by a devourer’s claw attack or spectral hand ability receive one negative level. The Fortitude save to remove the negative level has a DC of 19.

Trap Essence (Su): The devourer is named for its ability to consume an enemy’s life essence. To do so, it must forgo its normal melee attacks and make a trap essence attack. This requires a normal attack roll to hit but deals no damage. The affected creature must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 19) or die instantly. The slain creature’s essence is trapped within the devourer’s ribs, and the diminutive figure takes on that victim’s features. The trapped essence cannot be raised or resurrected, but a limited wish, miracle, or wish spell frees it, as does destroying the devourer. A devourer can hold only one essence at a time. The trapped essence provides the devourer with enough power to use five spell-like abilities per HD or level of the trapped creature. As this energy is expended, the twisted soul fades away until it evaporates completely. The trapped essence receives one negative level for every five spell-like uses. When the number of negative levels equals the creature’s total HD or level, the essence is destroyed. If an essence is freed, the restored creature must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 17) for each negative level or lose that level permanently.

Spell-Like Abilities: At the start of any encounter, the trapped essence within a devourer is assumed to have 3d4+3 levels (enough fuel for 30 to 75 uses). Once per round, the devourer can use one of following as the spell cast by an 18th-level sorcerer (save DC 13 + spell level): confusion, control undead, ghoul touch, lesser planar ally, ray of enfeeblement, spectral hand, suggestion, and true seeing.

Undead: Immune to mind-influencing effects, poison, sleep, paralysis, stunning, and disease. Not subject to critical hits, subdual damage, ability damage, energy drain, or death from massive damage.

Spell Deflection (Su): The trapped essence provides a measure of magical protection. If any of the following spells are cast at the devourer and overcome its spell resistance, they affect the imprisoned essence instead: banishment, chaos hammer, confusion, detect thoughts, dispel evil, dominate person, emotion, fear, geas/quest, holy word, hypnosis, imprisonment, magic jar, maze, suggestion, trap the soul, or any form of charm or compulsion. In many cases, this effectively neutralizes the spell (charming a trapped essence, for example, is useless). Some of them (banishment, for example), might eliminate the trapped essence, robbing the devourer of its magical powers until it can consume another.

Combat

When hunting, it looks about for a likely target, then charges forth and delivers a gout of acid. If the initial attack is insufficient to kill the prey, the digester attacks with its hind feet until it can spray acid again.

Acid Spray (Ex): A digester can spray acid in a cone 20 feet long, dealing 4d8 points of damage to everything in the area.Once a digester uses this ability, it can’t use it again until 1d4 rounds later. The creature can also produce a concentrated stream of acid that deals 8d8 points of damage to a single target within 5 feet. In either case, a successful Reflex save (DC 17) halves the damage.

Skills: The digester’s coloration gives it a +4 racial bonus to Hide checks. It also has a +4 racial bonus to Jump checks.

Snatch (Ex): A dragon turtle that hits with a bite attack attempts to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity.
