CREATURES
Select a Creature from the drop-downlist:
Fiends, General
Fiends vary wildly. GMs are encouraged to design their own fiends using the information provided in the Table: Outsiders and below. Several sample fiends are given below.
Fiends have the following traits.
Variable Size: Depending on their size, fiends gain a size bonus or penalty on attack rolls, a size bonus or penalty to Defense, and a size bonus or penalty on Hide checks and grapple checks. See Table: Creature Sizes for attack and Defense modifiers based on size, as well as for a fiend's typical fighting space and reach.
Natural Armor: A fiend has preternaturally tough skin and gains a natural armor bonus to Defense. The bonus depends on its size, and higher bonuses are allowable: Tiny or smaller +2, Small +5, Medium-size +9, Large +14, Huge +16, Gargantuan +18, Colossal +20.
Immunities (Ex): A fiend is immune to one or more specific types of energy or weapon damage. Roll on Table: Fiend Immunities, Resistances, and Damage Reduction.
Resistance to Energy (Ex): A fiend is resistant to one or more specific types of energy damage. Roll on Table: Fiend Immunities, Resistances, and Damage Reduction.
Damage Reduction (Su): Some fiends have damage reduction. Roll on Table: Fiend Immunities, Resistances, and Damage Reduction to determine whether a fiend has damage reduction. If the campaign includes few or no magic weapons, the GM should consider allowing specific types of weapons to ignore a fiend's damage reduction or contrive some other special vulnerability (see Creature Weaknesses for suggestions).
Telepathy (Su): Fiends with an Intelligence of 6 or higher can communicate telepathically with any creature within 100 feet that has a language.
Allegiances: All fiends have a primary allegiance to evil. Fiends may also have an allegiance to either chaos or law.
Bonus Feat: Fiends gain either Archaic Weapons Proficiency or Simple Weapons Proficiency as a bonus feat.
Automatic Languages: Fiends can speak Abyssal (the language of demons) and a number of additional languages equal to their Intelligence bonus. Fiends with an Intelligence of 8 or higher can also read and write these languages
