The Telal are a cowardly psionic fiend who prefers to run than do battle. The Telal are not effective combatants but are employed by the fiend armies as spies. The Telal are often sent about in different guises to gather information that is relative to the fiends. In their natural form, Telal look like blue colored humaniods with the head of a beetle bearing curved horns and large clawed hands and feet. The Telal are particularily scrawny for fiends. Their might is not in brawn but rather in their great psionic abilities that far surpass that of other fiends.
COMBAT
The Telal fear combatand avoid it at all costs as they are weak and cowardly when attacked up close. If they have to fight they prefer fighting from a distance, using their powers to harm their enemies. In melee, they attack with what ever they can as they attempt to get out of range.
Psionics (Sp: At will - Daze, Telempathic projection, Sense link, Conceal thoughts, Charm person, Spider climb, Combat prescience, Detect thoughts, Inflict pain, Suggestion, Clairvoyance/ Clairaudience, Knock, False sensory input, Fate link
Nondetection, Crisis of breath, Ubiquitous vision, Mindwipe, Tailor memory, Amplified invisibility, Aura sight, Natural armor, Metafaculty, Mind probe, True seeing, Precognition, Mindblank, Foresight, Hypercognition, Teleport without error, Improved telekinesis, Aura alteration, Mass suggestion, Sheild of prudence 10/day - Ultrablast 3/day - Thrall
The base save is DC 20+power level (add +2 for telepathic powers)
Spell-like abilities (Sp: At will - Mislead, Veil, Mindfog, Greater dispelling, Insanity, Hold person, Darkness, Hypnotism, Sleep
The base save is DC 20+spell level
Poison (Ex): The poison is from the barbs on the tail of the Telal. The initial save is DC 16 or suffer 1d2 Constitution damage. The second save if failed results in 1 permanent Constitution drain and unconsciousness.
Summon Numer'ri (Su): 1/day the Telal may attempt to summon another Telal with a 50% chance of success. The Telal may also instead summon 1d4 Eyridan (Septiem) with a 75% chance of success.
Numer'ri Qualities (Ex): Telal are immune to poison, disease, and fire. They also have cold, electricity, and acid resistance 20. They can speak any language.
Regeneration 10 (Ex): The Telal can take 10 hit points of damage worth as subdual. This ability does not stack with the Telals damage reduction. Use either of them, which ever gives less damage. If the Telal loses a limb it will grow back in 3d6 minutes or will be instantaniously placed back on if the limb is held in place.
Greater Telepathy (Su): The Telal are reknowned for their great powers of telepathy. The Telal have telepathy and can speak with any creature at any distance...even across planes. The Telal may also have a number of conversations going on at the same time. This powerful connection with all other beings allows the Telal to manifest telepathic powers through the telepathic conncetion no matter where the being is. Some powerss that are used alot in this manner are Inflict pain, Detect thoughts (detects thoughts of the other being only), and Mind probe.
Shapechange (Ex): The Telal ahve mastered the psionic art of shapshifting and use it constantly to disguise themselves. The Telal may changes shape once every round as a free action and remain in this form indefinantley. They may revert back to their true forms as a free action.
The Telal as of the present: For the most part, the Telal are trapped within numer though there was a group of them that was a few armies of them that were trapped upon the world when the gates closed. The Telal armies met each other in secrecy and planned a way to survive yet be of some use. They split up into a numbr of cells and spread across the lands in many different disguises according to the places they were in. Some changed into animals while others changed into humans and bluffed there ways into high honors with the remaining peoples. The hidning Telals avoid people of high magic and psionic levels as they might be noticed for what they actually were...spying fiends. The left over Telal have spread all over the world in many different forms and are collecting information daily. The Telal are very hard to notice as they can take the form of anything...such as one that is disguised as a sentient sword. Anyways, if you want to go further with this...go ahead and let me know. Any toher fiends...post'em here.

If possession also does not work, then the Anhkaru will leave the being alone and attempt to hide.

Malevolence (Su): Once per round the Anhkaru may attempt to possess a living being. The being must succeed at a will save (DC 17) or become possessed by the Anhkaru until driven out, death of the body, or the Anhkaru leaves the body.

The Soul bane are a greatly fear fiend for their abilities. The Soul bane is named such as they search for those whom are near death and steals their souls to empower themselves. The Soul bane are lone wnaderers, often traveling by night and using their spell-like abilities to get at their dying prey. The Soul bane look like undead humanoids with ghost white skin pull taught over a skeletal body. Atop their heads is a crown of natural horns. They also have a pair of tattered wings to fly with.
COMBAT
The Soul bane hates combat, particularily in their beginning...once they have stolen a few souls they go looking for combat...and more souls. The Soul bane attempts to hide and move about like mere shadow if at all possible. If it has to fight, it attacks with its scythe, attempting to cleave the being towards near-death so that the soul is ripe for the plucking. It uses its powers such as deeper darkness to gain the upper hand and deathwatch to see where his opponents life is.

I have lots of notes for monsters that I never quite got around to finishing. I could finish them up though
Sorry about that...Ive unfortunately been super busiy and have had little chance to use the comp. I read your posts and I think it would be a great idea for you all to finish up those monsters and such and get them posted asap. Now, as for me, work tonight then I have pretty well a week of freedom to work on DF. I wont quit if you dont.
