[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 6675712, member: 2209"] [b]Epic Monsters[/b] [URL="http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/12464/Epic-Monsters?src=also_purchased&it=1&affiliate_id=17596"]Epic Monsters[/URL] [b]Atropol Abomination:[/b] Not every divine pregnancy ends in a successful birth. As with the non-divine races some children fail to reach term, when this occurs in the divine realm the child is sometimes animated by the Negative Energy Plane and is reborn as an atropal. [b]Demilich:[/b] A demilich is the next evolutionary step in the life of an evil wizard. Through the creation of soul gems a lich may shed they body and travel the multiverse as an astral entity. ‘Demilich’ is a template that can be added to any lich. A demilich’s form is concentrated into a single portion of its original body, usually its skull. Part of the process of becoming a demilich includes the incorporation of costly gems into the retained body part; see Creating Soul Gems, below. The process of becoming a demilich can be undertaken only by a lich acting of its own free will. Each demilich must make its own soul gems, which requires the Craft Wondrous Item feat. The lich must be a sorcerer, wizard or cleric of at least 21st level. Each soul gem costs 120,000 gp and 4,800 XP to create and has a caster level equal to that of its creator at the time of creation. Soul gems appear as egg-shaped gems of wondrous quality. They are always incorporated directly into the concentrated form of the demilich. [b]Hunefer:[/b] Hunefers once strode across the planes as demigods. Slain by adventurers their godly power was stripped from them, but their followers did not abandon them. The body of the hunefer was recovered inscribed with symbols important to them and carefully wrapped for their eventual return to life and ascension to godhood. Now awakened, the hunefer are on a undying quest to recover their lost divinity. [b]Lavawight:[/b] The lavawight is the end result of foolish adventurers who attack a shape of fire. Those that succumb to a shape of fire's blazefire embrace are converted to lavawights. Any humanoid slain by a shape of fire becomes a lavawight in 1d4 rounds. [b]Nightswimmer Nightshade:[/b] ? [b]Shadow of the Void:[/b] A shadow of the void is cold vengeance personified. [b]Shape of Fire:[/b] A shape of fire is white-hot rage personified. [b]Winterwight:[/b] The winterwight is the end result of adventurers foolish enough to attack shadow of the void. Those that succumb to a shadow of the void's blightfire embrace are converted to winterwights. Any humanoid slain by a shadow of the void becomes a winterwight in 1d4 rounds. [b]Sebastian the Shadow Souled:[/b] Although no one else remembers his history, Sebastian still feels the driving fear of death that led him to sacrifice his kingdom, his people and his own newborn son to the powers of darkness in return for eternal life. [b]Bodiless Ao:[/b] ? [b]Undead:[/b] Orcus is the Prince of the Undead, and it is said that he alone created the first undead that walked the worlds. [b]Mummy:[/b] A creature afflicted with hunefer rot that dies shrivels away into sand unless both remove disease and raise dead (or better) are cast on the remains within 2 rounds. If the remains are not so treated, on the third round the dust swirls and forms an 18 HD mummy with the dead foe’s equipment under the hunefer’s command. [/QUOTE]
