First Post
This creature is a tribute to the movie Dogma by Kevin Smith. If you have not seen this movie yet, do so now*.

* if you are at least 15 years old. The movie contains foul language, nudity, and lots of violence. It is also funny as hell and approved of by the christian god. Want proof? Kevin Smith is still alive...

The Golgothan, also known as the excremental, is one of the vilest creatures to originate in Hades.
The Golgothan is a hulking humanoid, entirely composed of the excrements that heartless murderers expelled during their executions. The creature’s mouth and eyes are nothing but empty hollows, in the creatures overall brown and slimy body.
In other words, the creature is a heaving pile of crap.

Combat:
The Golgothan in not particularly intelligent for an outsider, and fights much like a berserker, flailing away until either it or it's opponents are dead. The creature will use its innate abilities, early and often.
Glob (Ex): As a standard action the Golgothan can fire a glob of excrements from it's body. It must make a ranged touch attack to hit, and the glob deals 1d8+3 points of damage, and has a chance to infect the target with a disease if it hits.
Disease (Ex): Those hit by one of the Golgothan’s natural attacks must succeed on a DC 22 fortitude save or contact a disease. This disease is usually a particularly nasty version of Filth Fever, but other diseases are possible as well.
Spell-like Abilities: At will – Bane (DC 15), Desecrate, Ghoul Touch (DC 16), Grease (DC 15), and Obscuring Mist; 3/day – Bestow Curse (DC 18), Fear (DC 18), Poison (DC 18), Slow (DC 17), Stinking Cloud (DC 17), and Summon Swarm; 1/day – Cloudkill (DC 19), and Unholy Blight (DC 18); These are as the spells cast by a 12th level sorcerer. The save DC’s are Charisma-based.
Regenerate (Ex): Good, fire, and cold effects deal damage normally to a Golgothan. If the creature loses a body part, the lost part regrows in 3d6 minutes. The Golgothan is not slain if it loses its head, but it is incapacitated until the head regrows.
Fire Vulnerability (Ex): Due to its composition the Golgothan takes 50% more damage from fire sources.
Breathless (Ex): Immune to gas attacks; can survive indefinitely in airless environments, not subject to chocking and drowning.
