A missile that hits a target inflicts 10d8 points of piercing/slashing damage and 10d6 points of fire damage to the target.

The field provides a +5 deflection bonus to the horror’s AC (included in the stat block above) and deflects all damage until it is destroyed. The field itself has 100 hit points and is damaged only by acid, cold, electricity, fire and sonic attacks. If it is damaged it flares and becomes momentarily visible. It repairs itself at a rate of 10 hit points per round, but if destroyed, it will not regenerate for 24 hours. The force field can also be destroyed with a disintegrate spell or effect.
