[QUOTE="Skade, post: 741479, member: 3320"] Would you prefer this to be a template or a complete creature? You could go wither way with it. Using the template, you could have this same effect at varying power levels- a Deva of Tragedy, or a Archon of Tragedy, lets say. Or you could state that the tragedy changes the very metaphysical nature of the celestial, totally changing the physical, and spiritual form. I would say go with the template. The parts with bold are the ones I suggest, everything else is repeats of your post. HD: Same as the base creature. Speed: Same as the character or animal AC: Same as base creature Attacks: same as base creature Damage: same as base creature Special Attacks: the touch of an angel of tragedy deals temporary [b] Wisdom [/b]damage (1d4, [b]Will Save equal to 10+HD+chr [/b]), that goes off the next dawn. Creatures who are reduced to 0 wisdom fall asleep and cannot be awaken until the next dawn[b]and suffer a -2 to all actions do to haunting visions of despair[/b] Also, it has something like a gaze attack: anyone that looks in his/her eyes is overwhelmed by tragic feelings. Must make a Will save (DC 16 ?) or be unable to do anything (treat as dazed) for 1d6 rounds. In any case it takes a -4 morale penalty to all attacks, saves and checks until the next dawn. This is active also in human form. Evil creatures receive a +2 bonus to saves against this effect Special Qualities: Aura of Hoplessness: anybody in a 10ft radius from the angel receives a -1 morale penalty to all attacks, checks and saves. This is active also in human form -> Protection from Evil: Even if partially fallen, an angel is still an angel, and thus protected from any evil. It is always active as the spell. Can be dispelled, but the angel can recreate it as a free action on his/her next round. -> Telepathy: An angel is able co communicate with any creature in a 50ft radius that is able to speak at least one language, but can speak only to one creature per round. -> Curse: anyone deliberatly killing an Angel of Tragedy receives a curse (-4 to all attacks, saves and checks). This is treated exactly as a Bestow Curse spell, except that an evil caster can remove it only with Limited Wish, Wish or Miracle. [b]Saves:[/b] The creature gains a +4 bonus to Will saves, as its despair has rendered its mind immune to most influences.
