I increased the Xixecal's CR to be closer to the Phaethon's, since I consider them about equal in difficulty, and 50 was just too low. The only thing I'm a little shaky on is his SLAs. I like the idea of them being meta-magicked inherently, but there's little precendet for it. I should probably update the Xixecal with that too... Immortal Phaethon  Gargantuan Outsider (Elemental, Evil, Extra-Planar, Fire, Ooze) Hit Dice: 96d8 +5,472 (6,240 hp)Initiative: +20 (+12 Dex, +8 Superior Initiative)Speed: 120 ft., Burrow 120 ft. Armor Class: 68 (-4 Size, +19 Deflection, +12 Dexterity, +4 Divine, +27 Natural)Flat-Footed: 56 Touch: 41 Base Attack/Grapple: +96/+143Space/Reach: 20 ft./10 ft. Attack: 8 Pseudopod Slams +133 Melee Touch 4d8 +65 +4d8 Divine Fine 19-20/x3 Special Abilities: Devouring Flame, Divine Fire, Improved Grab, Scoria, Spell-Like Abilities, Swallow Whole, Summon Primal Fire Elemental, Telepathy Special Qualities: Abomination Traits, Amorphous, DR 65/Epic and Lawful, Fast Healing 65, Legendary Constitution, Immunity to Fire, Regeneration 65, SR 110 Saves: Fort +111 Ref +66 Will +62Abilities: Str 72 Dex 34 Con 124 Int 8 Wis 26 Cha 48 Skills: Climb +134, Craft (Metal, Stone-Working) +33, Hide +55, Jump +114, Knowledge (Geography) +68, Listen +79, Move Silently +105, Search +102, Spot +108 Feats: Alertness, Cleave, Great Cleave, Improved Critical (Slam), Improved Initiative, Improved Natural Attack (Slam), Iron Will, Power Attack, Improved Sunder, Weapon Focus (Slam) Epic Feats: Epic Potency (15), Epic Weapon Focus (Slam), Improved Critical Multiplier (Slam), Greater Sunder, Overcome Weakness (Cold), Power Attack Mastery, Superior Initiative, Superior Sunder, Suppress Weakness (Cold), Uncanny Power Attack Alignment: Chaotic Evil Environment: Elemental Plane of Fire, Para-Elemental Plane of Magma, Volcanoes, SunsECL: 108CR: 72 Combat A Phaethon opens combat by summoning 3 Primal Fire Elementals and then launches salvos of Spell-Like Abilities before enemies close, at which point it engages in melee, Power Attacking with impunity.  Amorphous A Phaethon’s laval nature makes it nearly impervious to physical harm. All physical attacks deal ½ damage to a Phaethon before Damage Reduction. Devouring Flame A Phaethon’s fire consumes those it touches. Any Fire Damage dealt by a Phaethon repeats itself in the next round. Divine Fire All Fire Damage dealt by a Phaethon is half normal fire and half Divine Energy that ignores immunity or resistance.  Improved Grab If a Phaethon hits with a Pseudopod, it deals normal damage and attempts to start a Grapple as a Free Action without provoking an attack of opportunity. Phaethons can use Improved Grab on a Huge or smaller creature. A Phaethon has the option to conduct the grapple normally, simply maintaining a Pseudopod hold, or attempting to absorb the opponent by swallowing the foe whole. Each successful Grapple Check it makes during successive rounds automatically deals the damage listed for the Pseudopod. A Phaethon may act normally while maintaining the hold. Immunities Phaethons, being Abominations, Elementals, and Oozes, are immune to the following: Ability Damage, Ability Drain, Critical Hits, Death From Massive Damage, Energy Drain, Fire, Flanking, Mind-Affecting Effects, Paralysis, Poison, Sleep, Stunning, and Spells of the Enchantment, Illusion, and Transmutation schools.  Scoria Anyone striking a Phaethon takes 4d8 Divine Fire damage. Likewise, any blows that does not overcome the Phaethon’s Damage Reduction inflicts the difference on the weapon. Non-Magical weapons striking a Phaethon disintegrate instantly.  Spell-Like Abilities Caster Level 100, DC 33 + Spell Level At Will- Empowered Delayed Blast Fireball, Maximized Flame Strike, Meteor Swarm, Quickened Fireball, Widened Fire Storm, Extended Wall of Fire Summon Primal Fire Elemental Once per day, a Phaethon may summon 3 Primal Fire Elementals as a Standard Action. Swallow Whole A Phaethon can absorb opponents it holds with a second successful Grapple Check after a grab. The opponent must be Huge or smaller. Absorbed creatures take 20d10 points of Bludgeoning Damage and 20d10 points of Divine Fire Damage each round they remain inside a Phaethon. Victims must make a successful grapple check to “swim” free of the living magma of the Phaethon. Telepathy A Phaethon may communicate mentally with any creature within 1,000 ft. that has a language.</blockquote>
