I am interested in playing a Gelugon (Ice Devil) in my new campaign. Since there is not a progression is Savage Species, I have created one using a 20 ECL. Critque and commentary are welcome!
NOTE: THE FORMATTING MAY BE MESSED UP SO I HAVE ATTACHED A WORD FILE TOO.

Lesser Gelugon powers: Beginning at 2nd level a gelugon can use the following spell-like abilities once per day: desecrate, detect good, and detect magic. At 5th level it can use them three times a day, and at 9th level it can use them at will. The gelugon’s caster level is equal to its Hit Dice from class levels plus one (save DC 10 + spell level + gelugon’s Cha modifier).

A creature that successfully saves cannot be affected again by the same gelugon’s aura for one day. Other baatezu are immune to the aura.
