[QUOTE="Mark Chance, post: 5374871, member: 2795"] [b]Baba Yaga's Oven[/b] [i]Cautiously, you enter the dark kitchen. It is a massive, vaulted chamber. The missing children languish in a cage on the other side of the room, just visible in the flickering glow of the huge iron oven's fire. There's no sign of the witch. Cautiously, you step forward. That's when the oven stands up on squat legs and lurches forward, its stovepipe whipping like a enormous serpent.[/i] Baba Yaga's Oven is not just useful for cooking lost children into grisly pies. It is also a powerful construct that helps defend the witch's magical hut. It fights with its stove pipe's powerful bludgeon. The magically flexible iron of the pipe enables it to grab a victim and possibly toss said victim into the oven's scorching interior. The oven also attacks with searing hot sprays of molten butter.

[b]Immunity to Magic (Ex)[/b] Baba Yaga's Oven is immune to spells or spell-like abilities that allow spell resistance. Certain spells and effects function differently against it, as noted below. * A magical attack that deals cold damage slows the oven (as the slow spell) for 3 rounds, with no saving throw. * A magical attack that deals fire damage breaks any slow effect on the oven and heals 1 point of damage for each 3 points of damage the attack would otherwise deal. If the amount of healing would cause the oven to exceed its full normal hit points, it gains any excess as temporary hit points. The oven gets no saving throw against fire effects. * The oven is affected normally by rust attacks, such as those of a rust monster or a [i]rusting grasp[/i] spell.
