[QUOTE="Psion, post: 1258045, member: 172"] [b]Night Touched[/b] A little more backstory: In my version of the CotSQ, the reason that the followers of the undead drow goddess were able to take the city is not the loss of power of followers of lolth, but a significant increase in the arts of undeath. Part I of their grand plan in the creation of the night touched, undead/demons that allow them to wrest control of undead from the other factions. (Part II is that the temple will let them keep it by fueling the creation of undead dragons.) Night Touched are creatures from Creature Collection II. What follows is a conversion of their stats to 3.5 stats (excepting that I use 3.0 for some details, like facing and spells.) After that is a version made to challenge my wrecking crew of a party: a paragon spell-stitched night touched controller. Nightborn (Night-Touched) This is the secret that Kavishella granted that was key to the shifting of power in the city: the night touched (from Creature Collection 2). Night touched controllers gave the cult of Kavishella unprecedented power in claiming control of undead. Night touched were made under 3.0 rules, and I use 3.5 creature rules except for DR (and that I use the scry skill.) That being the case, I think it is prudent to update them to 3.5. Due to S&SS’s PI policy, names of creatures are PI, so I’ll be renaming these “Nightborn” if it ever becomes an OGC issue. The biggest change was the skills and feats, though I added some clarifications to some abilities. Night touched: General Night Touched Qualities: All night touched share these basic qualities.

The effects of multiple night touched stack; make a single save for all night touched, but damage is cumulative. Creatures use the lower of their cold or fire resistance versus this effect, but creatures immune to negative energy are not affected (but neither are they healed.) Aversion to Daylight: Night touch hate light. While exposed to natural daylight (or the equivalent), they suffer a -2 penalty to all attack rolls. Immunities(Ex): Night touched are immune to fire and cold Resistances (Ex): Resistance to acid: 10 Telepathy (Su): Can communicate with any creature with a language, range 50 feet.
