Those creatures that fail the save and have less than half the Hit Dice (round down) of the armanite are panicked for 2d6 rounds. Creatures with more than half the Hit Dice of the armanite and who fail the save are shaken for 2d6 rounds. Those creatures with more Hit Dice than the armanite are immune to this effect. Whether or not the save is successful, a creature can only be affected by the same armanite’s frightful presence once per day. This is a mind-affecting fear effect.  The save DC is Charisma based.Spell-like Abilities: At will – darkness, greater teleport (self plus 50 pounds of objects only). Caster level 9th. The save DC is Charisma based.Summon Tanar’ri (Sp): Once per day, an armanite can attempt to another armanite with a 40% chance of success. This is the equivalent of a 4th level spell.</blockquote>
