Special Conversion Thread: Angels (and possibly other heavenly creatures)

Make the serpent a manifestation of an aura of terror? Will save or evil creatures cower for X rounds, save for shaken for 1? Most things by that level will have some manner of protection from fear, but it's cool.

That nicely encapsulates what I was thinking, only you said it better.

I like it. Also, taking that sentence literally, we might consider giving them smite evil.

In fact, I find it odd that all angels don't have smite evil, especially considering that half-celestials and celestial creatures get it.

 

[demiurge1138]

Yeah, smite evil sounds completely reasonable.

 

[freyar]

Absolutely.

Do these look OK?

Holy Terror (Su): Evil creatures viewing a seraph for the first must succeed on a DC X Will save or cower for 1d6 rounds, as the seraph appears as a great flaming serpent. Even on a successful save, an evil creature is shaken for 1 round. After that, a creature that succeeds on its Will save remains immune to that seraph's holy terror for 24 hours. This is a mind-affecting fear effect. The save DC is Charisma-based.

Smite Evil (Su): Once per day a seraph can make a normal melee attack to deal extra damage equal to its Hit Dice against an evil foe.

Looks good! What else do these need?

 

[demiurge1138]

I'd drop the "after that", but other than that, looks good.

 

[Shade]

Updated.

I think we're done!

 

[freyar]

Looks great!
