[/i] Spectral Slivers are the next step in undead sliver evolution, and unlike their lesser kin the crypt slivers, they are highly agressive creatures, that attack everything and everyone unless contained either through magic or by domination from a sliver noble. A spectral sliver looks like a sliver composed entirely from wisps of white and grey smoke, despite their appearance though, they are not incorporeal, just highly unstable. [b]Combat: [/b] Spectral Slivers fight like berserkers attacking everything within reach, the give no quarter and expect none in return. [b]Ability Drain (Su):[/b] Anyone hit by the natural weapons of a spectral sliver must make a fort save (DC: 13) or take one point of temporary constitution damage. On a critical hit, this damage is doubled, and allows no save. [b]Gaseous Form (Ex):[/b] The spectral slivers body consists mostly of translucent wisps of smoke, which grants the sliver the following abilities and vulenrabilities: · All physical attacks against the spectral sliver have a 25% chance of inflicting no damage. · Non-magical weapons only deal half damage against the spectral sliver. · The spectral sliver can squeeze through even the tiniest crack at it's normal movement speed. · The sliver can be 'herded' with spells that affect winds, such as [i]gust of wind[/i] and [i]wind wall[/i]. It is not allowed a save against such spells. - Comments and critizism is appreciated. :D Later,[/color] [/QUOTE]
