Someone glancing at a detrion would mistake it for a mechanical beholder, but they would be wrong. Detrion are spherical creatures with a single eye and limbs that end in pincher-like claws. The detrion are hollow as they house their valued treasure. Within its central cavity, the detrion house a gem of 10,000 gp in value and no smaller. This gem is one of the following: Onyx, Sapphire, Jade, Ruby or Emerald. The eye closes over the gem, sealing it off from would-be thieves. COMBAT Detrion prefer to hit their opponents with their eye beam, which is dependant upon the type of gem inside. They do not attack unless they are approached within 10 feet. They can also use their claws for melee combat. Eye Beam (Su): The detrion can shoot a beam at an opponent up to 60 feet, once every 1d4+1 rounds. The type of beam used depends upon the type of gem inside. The damage from the beam is temporary and lasts for 3d6 hours. A Reflex save (DC 18) negates the draining effect. Ruby: -1 Strength and 2d6 damage Emerald: -1 Dexterity and 2d6 damage Sapphire: -1 Constitution and 2d6 damage Onyx: -1 Intelligence and 2d6 damage Jade: -1 Wisdom and 2d6 damage Suresight (Ex): The detrion can locate invisible and ethereal opponents within 60 feet. This ability is usable 3x/day. Concussive Strike (Su): Once every 1d4 rounds, the detrion can project one of its melee attacks against a target that is up to 100 feet away. The air ripples as the attack shoots forward, and attack and damage are rolled as normal. The detrion must have a clear line of sight for this to be used. Flight (Ex): A detrion's body is kept aloft using magic. It can fly at speeds of up to 30 feet as a free action. This ability also grants a permanent feather fall effect with personal range. Construct: Immune to mind-influencing effects, poison, disease, and similar effects. Not subject to critical hits, subdual damage, ability damage, energy drain, or death from massive damage. CONSTRUCTION The detrion costs 85,000 gp to create, which includes 450 for the construction of the body and 75 gp for the ornate medallion. Assembling the body requires a successful Craft (sculpture) check (DC18). The second requirement is creating the ornate medallion from mithril, which requires a successful Craft (metalworking) check (DC 14). After the body and medallion are created, the creature must go through an extensive magical ritual that requires a week to complete. Understanding the ritual requires a 14th level character with the Craft Wondrous Item feat. Completing the ritual drains 1700 XP from the creator and requires bull's strength, gust of wind, limited wish, make whole, see invisibility and true strike. ORNATE MEDALLION If the ornate medallion is destroyed, the detrion ceases to function until a new one is created. If the wearer dies but the amulet remains intact, the detrion guards its treasure until it is destroyed. [/QUOTE]
