[QUOTE="BOZ, post: 149675, member: 1241"] PYROLISK Small Magical Beast (Fire) Hit Dice: 6d10+12 (45 hp) Initiative: +4 (Dex) Speed: 20 ft, fly 60 ft (poor) AC: 15 (+1 size, +4 Dex) Attacks: Bite +4 melee Damage: Bite 1d4-2 Face/Reach: 5 ft by 5 ft/5 ft Special Attacks: Burning gaze, pyrotechnics Special Qualities: Immune to fire Saves: Fort +7, Ref +9, Will +4 Abilities: Str 7, Dex 18, Con 14, Int 5, Wis 14, Cha 14 Skills: Hide +9, Listen +9, Spot +9 Feats: Alertness, Dodge Climate/Terrain: Any temperate and warm land and underground Organization: Solitary or flight (1-4) Challenge Rating: 4 Treasure: None Alignment: Always neutral evil Advancement: 7-12 HD (Small); 13-24 HD (Medium-Size) The pyrolisk is foul creature, even more deadly than its cousin, the cockatrice. This creature is much more malignant and evil than a cockatrice, and revels in creating mayhem. It appears almost identical to the cockatrice, save for its single red tail feather, and the reddish cast of its wings. It is said that the mortal enemy of the pyrolisk is the phoenix, though it is likely to attack any creature it encounters. COMBAT The pyrolisk is a true pyromaniac, setting alight to every creature it meets. It will try to use its gaze attack on opponents, but failing that it will use its weak bite attack to flee. Burning Gaze (Su): Any creature that meets the gaze of the pyrolisk must succeed at a Will save (DC 15) or instantly burst into flames, dying at the end of the round. If the save is made, the creature will suffer 1d12 points of fire damage. Creatures immune to or protected from fire are not affected by this attack, and any creature that makes its saving throw is thereafter immune to the gaze of that pyrolisk. Pyrotechnics (Su): Once per round, at will, a pyrolisk can affect any fire source within 30 yards as the pyrotechnics spell. The area of effect for this power is 10 times that of the fire source. The pyrolisk first appeared in the Monster Manual II (1983), and later appeared in both Monstrous Compdenium One (1989) and the Monstrous Manual (1993) under the "cockatrice" entry. [/QUOTE]
