[QUOTE="Aspect of BOZ, post: 3142167, member: 41113"] thanks! :) here's 3 more, all from the same book as well: (do spell crystals appear anywhere in 3E, or do we need to introduce this concept?) Demarax Outsider (lawful), CR 2? This LN lizard-like creature has hundreds of tiny crystals embedded in its dark hide. The demarax roams slowly across the Outlands and lawful planes feeding on the spell crystals, which are the manifestation of summoning spells in the planes. Highly resistant to spells, demaraxes are usually non-hostile (although it might attack someone carrying a spell crystal), but can defend themselves by slamming with their tails, by shooting magic missiles from their three eyes, or by releasing a storm of spell crystals (each of which causes a random magical effect). Although pretty dumb, demaraxes live for thousands of years and can perfectly recall every conversation they've ever had, making them a potential source of information for planar adventurers. Originally found in Planescape Monstrous Compendium Appendix II (1995) Wastrel Magical Beast (extraplanar)?, CR 1? These cunning raven-like birds scavenge the most inhospitable reaches of the outer planes, like originating from the Gray Waste of Hades. It looks like a perfectly normal bird. A flock of wastrels attacks a party of travelers, hoping to taste their blood; a successful attack established a link between a wastrel and its victim, and the bird flies away to hide within 300 feet. This link allows a wastrel to cause 1 point of ability damage to each ability score per day, causing death when any reaches 0. The link severs if the victim moves more than a mile away and the ability damage doesn’t heal while the link is active. Originally found in Planescape Monstrous Compendium Appendix II (1995) Wraithworm Magical Beast (extraplanar)?, CR 3? This Large, magical snake is most common on Carceri and Arborea, and hunts in deserts and wastelands. This powerful serpent has coal-black scales with a diamond pattern of dark purple bands running down its back; bright green, glowing eyes; and sharp, bony spikes along its spine. These slow-moving snakes strike with blinding speed, and their bite deals 1d2 negative levels per hit, also poisoning the victim with an icy-cold venom. A wraithworm can assume an incorporeal wraithform to move around easier. The snake also has a paralyzing gaze. It has resistance to both cold and negative energy.
