"Great Googly-Moogly..."

"Howdy.  You got any souls you need eaten?"

"Maybe..."

"Bad Chiffon!  Bad!"

The Ammut are an underground dwelling race of portly humanoids resembling a cross between a crocodile, lioness and hippopotamus in manlike form.  They are excellent hunters, but gain no nourishment from living beings.  They subsist entirely on the souls of the damned.

Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, an Ammut must hit with its bite attack. It can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity. If it wins the grapple check, the Ammut establishes a hold on the opponent with its mouth and drags it into deep water, attempting to pin it to the bottom (assuming it's near one of the underground lakes or rivers they prefer to inhabit).  Or it may try to swallow opponents whole.

Swallow Whole (Ex):  An Ammut can try to swallow a grabbed opponent of up to two sizes smaller by making a successful grapple check. The swallowed creature takes 2d8+8 points of bludgeoning damage and 8 points of acid damage per round from the Ammut’s gizzard. A swallowed creature can cut its way out by using a light slashing or piercing weapon to deal 25 points of damage to the gizzard (AC 13). Once the creature exits, muscular action closes the hole; another swallowed opponent must cut its own way out.

A Large Ammut’s gizzard can hold 2 Small, 8 Tiny, or 16 Diminutive or smaller opponents.

Roar (Ex): An Ammut can loose a devastating roar every 1d4 rounds. All creatures within 30 feet must succeed on a DC 18 Fortitude save or become Deafened. The save DC is Constitution-based.

Hold Breath (Ex): An Ammut can hold its breath for a number of rounds equal to 4 × its Constitution score before it risks drowning.

Light Sensitivity (Ex): Ammut are dazzled in bright sunlight or within the radius of a daylight spell.

Detect Evil (Su): Ammut permanently have the benefits of the Detect Evil spell.

Partially Ethereal (Ex): The Ammut can interact normally with Ghosts and other Incorporeal Undead as if they were present on the Ethereal Plane.

Combat: Ammut roar and wade into melee.  They may hide underwater and snatch opponents small enough into it.  Being mortal is no defense against them.  The Ammut are fairly xenophobic, and their matriarchs do not like visitors.

Invisibility (Ps): By expending 3 power points a Baku may become Invisible as per the spell.

Combat: Against mortal opponents the Baku usually uses simple physical attacks.  If the mundane opponent appears to be too tough for that, or it has magical or psionic power, the Baku unleashes it's full power.

Special Empathic Link, Improved Evasion, Share Spells/Saving Throws, Improved Speed, Rebuke Spell Resistance

Bonus HD
Extra twelve-sided (d12) Hit Dice as normal. Extra Hit Dice improve the mount’s base attack and base save bonuses. An undead mount’s base attack bonus is equal to that of a cleric of a level equal to the mount’s HD. A mount has good Fortitude and Reflex saves (treat it as a character whose level equals the animal’s HD). The mount gains additional skill points or feats for bonus HD as normal for advancing a monster’s Hit Dice.

Natural Armor Adj.
The number on the table is an improvement to the mount’s existing natural armor bonus.

Str Adj.
Add this figure to the mount’s Strength score.

Int
The mount’s Intelligence score.

Empathic Link (Su)
The Fiend Knight has an empathic link with her mount out to a distance of up to 1 mile. The Fiend Knight cannot see through the mount’s eyes, but they can communicate empathically.

Note that even intelligent mounts see the world differently from humans, so misunderstandings are always possible.

Because of this empathic link, the paladin has the same connection to an item or place that her mount does, just as with a master and his familiar.

Improved Evasion (Ex)
When subjected to an attack that normally allows a Reflex saving throw for half damage, a mount takes no damage if it makes a successful saving throw and half damage if the saving throw fails.

Share Spells
At the Fiend Knight's option, she may have any spell (but not any spell-like ability) she casts on herself also affect her mount.

The mount must be within 5 feet at the time of casting to receive the benefit. If the spell or effect has a duration other than instantaneous, it stops affecting the mount if it moves farther than 5 feet away and will not affect the mount again even if it returns to the paladin before the duration expires. Additionally, the Fiend Knight may cast a spell with a target of "You" on her mount (as a touch range spell) instead of on herself. A Fiend Knight and her mount can share spells even if the spells normally do not affect creatures of the mount’s type (undead).

Share Saving Throws
For each of its saving throws, the mount uses its own base save bonus or the Fiend Knight’s, whichever is higher. The mount applies its own ability modifiers to saves, and it doesn’t share any other bonuses on saves that the master might have.

Improved Speed (Ex)
The mount’s speed increases by 10 feet.

Rebuke (Su)
You may Rebuke Undead an additional 2/day.  If you don't have this class ability, you can now Rebuke Undead 2/day.

Spell Resistance (Ex)
A mount’s spell resistance equals its master’s Hit Dice + 5. To affect the mount with a spell, a spellcaster must get a result on a caster level check (1d20 + caster level) that equals or exceeds the mount’s spell resistance.

"So what kind of Fiends are you?"

"We're religious mercenaries.  We stir up trouble by manipulating people's beliefs."

"I think you mean missionaries."

"HA!  No, we don't.  We really, really don't."

Narvaezans are twisted humanoids formed of shadow stuff with sharp teeth and claws.  Their feet have great hook-like claws that make walking impossible (not that they need to).  They generally have two of more horns giving them a fiendish appearance (hence the name), and shadows billowing out behind them in the form of a cloak or batlike wings.  They feed off fear, paranoia and hate, and are infamous for stirring up religious inquisitions.

Spell-Like Abilities (Sp): 3/day: Bestow Curse, Enthrall, Fear.  1/day: Suggestion.  The Narvaezan may also cast Cure Light wounds on itself at will, but it must Concentrate for 3 full rounds to do so.

Pounce (Ex): The Fiend may perform a Full Attack Action on a Charge, including Rake attacks.

Rake (Ex):  The Fiend can make two additional Rake attacks during a Grapple or Charge attack.  +8 to hit, damage is 1d5+2.

Sunlight Vulnerability (Ex): Narvaezan cannot enter direct sunlight, including the area of a Daylight spell. 

Turn Incorporeal (Su): The Narvaezan is formed of a shadow like substance, and is Incorporeal until it draws blood (it can claw a solid opponent even in it's Incorporeal state).  Once it does damage to an opponent it becomes solid and loses it's Incorporeal subtype until it goes 2 rounds without doing damage to a physical opponent.

Lair (Su): The Narvaezan can create an area of shadow up to 1000 feet across as a lair into which sunlight cannot penetrate, and if forced into the daylight it immediately teleports to this lair.  The door to the lair can be moved 60 ft. per round as a Swift Action.  Creating the lair takes 10 Minutes.  The door appears as a shadow, and if placed in an area of little illumination it requires a DC 20 Spot Check to see.  If placed in a lit area it is an obvious shadow.  Detect Magic or True Sight will always show the door.  The lair resembles the outside world, but filled with mist and shadows.  Anyone inside it other than the creating Fiend must make a DC 15 Willpower Save, or be Confused until he leaves the lair (Save DC is Cha based).  While within the Lair the Fiend may cast Mirage Arcana or Permanent Image at will.

Skills: Narvaezan gain a +4 Racial Bonus to Hide Checks in areas of shadowy illumination (and a -4 Penalty to Hide Checks in bright light).

Combat: Narvaezan often sit within their lair and wait for potential victims to walk in front of the door before grabbing them and pulling them in.  Otherwise it remains incorporeal and casts spells, only resorting to physical combat if necessary.

"Chiffon...translation?"

"Yeah, hold on I got a Common to Fiendish dictionary....Meni tushunasizmi? (Do you understand me?)"

"...fork fork salad?"

"Either your book or his is way off."

The Utukku are 12 ft. tall scaled humanoids with clawed hands and feet.  They have a golden red lion's head with quills instead of a mane.  Every 100 years they get to leave Carceri for one year on the Prime Material.  They could do various things with this time, but they spend most of it lonely and bitter in a cave somewhere.  When they get bitter enough they seek out local Humanoids to wreak havoc.  They don't look to establish cults or followers as their time is short, so they mostly just go for petty destructive chaos.  Utukku speak their own language.

"Good lord these are ... really underwhelming despite their appearance."

"Hey now.  Them frogs attract Undead like nuthin' else.  Perfect early warnin' systems and traps.  Not all minions needs ter be killin' machines."

Despite the name Ghoul Frogs are not Undead.  They are normal frogs with transparent skin and musculature, giving them a rather horrific appearance.  They hunt insects by blinding them with flashes of light, and often live in groups for safety.  This is by no means necessary as other predators have learned that by lurking nearby the frogs will attract prey they can eat (and it doesn't hurt that the frogs are terribly toxic).

Flash (Su):  Ghoul Frogs glow moderately giving them a -4 penalty to Hide Checks in shadowy areas or darkness.  As a Standard Action they can increase this to a bright flash of light.  Anyone within 10 feet looking directly at the frog during this time must make a DC 12 Reflex Save (Save DC is Constitution based) or be Blinded for 1d4 rounds.  Ghoul Frogs are immune to their own species Flashes.

Poison Flesh (Ex): Ingested, Fortitude Save DC 12, Initial Damage Nauseated for 1 Minute, Secondary is Nauseated 1d4 hours.

Glare Resistance (Ex):  Ghoul Frogs gain a +2 Racial Bonus on Saving Throws against any effect based on bright light used to Dazzle or Blind them.

Combat: Ghoul Frogs usually unleash their flash before running away.  Nearby ambush predators usually kill off their enemies for them.

"Aaaaand were back in the hazmat suits again..."

Dirtwraiths, also known as Sargusian Fungus, was brought to the world of Greyhawk via the Abyss. It appears as a mass of yellow fibers at the rootbase of large plants that eventually erupt into fruiting bodies.  They tend to be territorial killers, and are often employed as hitmen.

Poison Flesh (Ex): While Demons enjoy the taste of Sargusian Fungus, it is incredibly toxic to other species.  Ingested, DC 14 Fortitude Save, Initial damage Unconscious for 2d6 days, Secondary damage death (and the body becomes a new Dirtwraith).

"Seriously, does this entire section require suits?"

"Suits are not required.  You may trust me, as I am a perfectly normal fleshy entity such as yourselves."

Zygoms are cap mushrooms forming a rhizome structure that sweat a sticky glue like substance used to attach their spores to passing critters.  Found for the most part only near the Barrier Peaks in Greyhawk, it is presumed to be an invasive alien species.

Create Host (Ex): If the Zygom is in physical contact with a living creature, that creature must make a DC 14 Fortitude Save (Save DC is Con based with a +2 Racial Bonus).  If the victim fails, the Zygoms spores are glued to it's skin and mature within 1d4+1 days (if it receives a Remove Disease spell within this time it kills the spores).   Once the spores mature, the infected subject acts as if dominated (as per the spell). So long as the infection remains, the domination remains in effect, even if a check would normally indicate that the effect is broken.  The victim additionally takes 1 point of vile damage per day until a Remove Disease spell is cast.  If hp reach 0 the victim dies and becomes a new fruiting body of Zygoms.

Combat: Zygoms control their hosts to defend their colonies, and to bring in other hosts to infect, but they only fight in defense or against victims they know they can win against.

"Hur-ray hur-ray, step right up!  Getch'er new fangled alchemy Golems here!"

"This is kind of a Golem in the loosest sense only."

Demos are Magen, a form of Construct created by molds and alchemical gelatin.  They look humanoid, with grayish white flesh and are warm to the touch.  Good sculptors can make them have hair or bestial features, or even resemble a living person.  While not mindless, they do not process things in quite the same manner as living beings, making decisions based on the literal interpretation of instructions given to them.  They do not have free will, and know any one language chosen by their creator at the time of their creation.  The Demos are bodyguards, and are taught the use of weapons and armor.  They are generally sculpted to be intimidating.

Martial Proficiency: Demos are proficient with all Simple and Martial Weapons, and all Armor and Shields (except Tower Shields).

Loyalty (Ex): If it's master is killed the Demos goes berserk.  The uncontrolled Demos goes on a rampage, attacking the nearest living creature or smashing some object smaller than itself if no creature is within reach, then moving on to spread more destruction. Once a Demos goes berserk, no known method can reestablish control.  Demos cannot disobey an order given by their master.

Combat: Demos aren't great tacticians, but they will do their best to follow their masters orders to the letter.



Construction

To construct a Magen, the prospective crafter must create a metal mold.  The mold will determine the Magen's appearance, and is filled with a magically charged gelatin which requires 3000 GP to produce.   The mold is another 2000 GP, but can be used for future Magen as well.

Caldrons are a form of Magen used as assassins and guards (more like traps really).  They aren't quite as detailed as Demos, and can extend their limbs by up to 20 ft.

Galvans are experimental Magen who can fry opponents with lightning.  Their abilities seem limited, however, and research needs to be further done before making them more widespread.

"You are most exquisite sir or madam."

"Flattery works best if you don't unintentionally insult your target."

"They are somewhat mindless critters ma'am."

Hypnos are generally the most exquisitely sculpted of the Magen, and are used as personal assistants.  Their abilty to mentally influence others makes them popular, but it also terrifies their masters.  Most live in fear that somehow the Hypnos will some day gain free will.

Charm (Su): Hypnos can cast Charm Person at will as a 5th Level Wizard.

Suggestion (Su):  Hypnos can cast Suggestion at will as a 5th Level Wizard.  It may only do this on victims it has successfully Charmed, and may do so silently as it has established a telepathic channel to victims it has Charmed.

Loyalty (Ex): If it's master is killed the Hypnos goes berserk.  The uncontrolled Hypnos goes on a rampage, attacking the nearest living creature or smashing some object smaller than itself if no creature is within reach, then moving on to spread more destruction. Once a Hypnos goes berserk, no known method can reestablish control.  Hypnos cannot disobey an order given by their master.

Combat: Hypnos avoid combat, preferring to use their Supernatural abilities.  Their master can still order them to fight, however.

"Evening ma'ams.  Could you spare a dime for a few poor souls trappped on Carceri?  If we can free them they'd make excellent cannon fodder.  They're stoic as all get out."

Formerly known as the Tiere, the Gautiere were tall, gaunt humanoids with grey skin.  They worshiped a God whose name is long forgotten and toiled for generations to build a massive shrine in the Outlands to be his home.  Other, more jealous Gods assaulted the Tiere and their shrine.  Betrayed by their Good who hid within the temple, the Gautiere conducted a powerful ritual trapping their former deity within.  In the aftermath the shrine and it's captive deity disappeared, and the Gautiere were forever imprisoned on the layer of Minethys on Carceri.  They are brutal and uncaring to all but their own, and never retreat in battle. 

Acid Touch (Su): Once per day the Gautiere can make a melee touch attack that does 3d6 acid damage.  This damage takes twice as long to heal, and spells that heal damage heal half as much of this damage as usual.

Immunities (Ex): Gautiere are immune to Acid and Fire damage, as well as the effects of high temperatures (see Sandstorm).

Planar Prisoners (Ex): Gautiere cannot leave, or be removed from, the Plane of Carceri by any means.

Combat: Gautiere are fond of ambushes, and never retreat or surrender once a fight has begun.  They prefer their Xaen, and will use their touch attack on stubborn foes.  Their claws are used in desperation.

"Tell your fortune madam?"

"No."

"Guess your weight?"

"No."

"Have we met before?"

"Yes." "Yes."

"Crap.  I thought you two looked familiar."

Deceivers are Djinni tasked with masking the true face of the world for so long it has corrupted them.  They are grey skinned, thin Djinn with long limbs, and large head, hands and feet.  They have blond hair, one blue eye and one brown eye.  Virtually incapable of telling the truth, they will lie even if the truth serves them better. 

Spell-Like Abilities (Sp): At will: Comprehend Languages, Disguise Self, False Vision, Misdirection, Misrepresent Alignment, Serene Visage, Whispering Wind.  2/day: Major Image, Shadow Evocation, Veil (distance distortion?) 1/day: Color Spray, Mass Suggestion, Permanent Image, Phantasmal Disorientation, Programmed Image, Project Image, Solipsism, Song of Discord.   Caster Level is 24th.

Blinding Claws (Ex): On a successfully confirmed critical with it's claws, the Deceiver permanently blinds it's opponent until it receives a Remove Blindness/Deafness spell.

Displacement (Su): Deceiver Genie's have a permanent Displacement spell in effect on their person (Caster Level is equal to Hit Dice).  They may shut this on or off once per round as a Free Action.

Inveterate Liar (Ex): Deceiver's are virtually incapable of telling the truth, even under magical compulsion.  Charmed or Dominated Deceiver's can and will still lie to their controllers, and they are immune to spells that compel the truth.

Plane Shift (Sp): A genie can enter any of the elemental planes, the Astral Plane, or the Material Plane. This ability transports the genie and up to eight other creatures, provided they all link hands with the genie. It is otherwise similar to the spell of the same name (caster level 13th).

Combat: Deceivers are cowards who avoid combat, using their Spell-Like abilities to distract foes while they escape.  If cornered they are vicious, and will fight hysterically.
