Masterwork Monsters for Pathfinder

[Sister Fracture]

Oh, I see now. They're shaped by venom, not shaped like venom. 

Yes.

[Sister Fracture]

Non-templated or anything, but this monster didn't make it into either Bestiary for Pathfinder, so if that's what you're running, here for your entertainment is a PHASM.

Special Abilities

Amorphous (Ex) - A phasm in its natural for has no clear front or back, and thus cannot be flanked. Due to it having no obvious sensitive or critical bits, it is not subject to sneak attack damage.

Change Shape (Su) - A phasm can turn into a Small, Medium, or Large humanoid as a standard action, as the polymorph spell (CL 15). It can stay in this alternate form until it decides to change shape again.  Using this ability does not provoke attacks of opportunity.

Oooo, I can't wait until after my group runs into this next creature I wrote out. It took me two hours to make sure I had it done properly. But I can't post it yet, because I want it to be a sooper dooper surprise.

For some reason I am happy in the pance.

I can wait until you unveil it for those what deserve the horror.

Webcam of player faces, plz.

[Sister Fracture]

Well, they already have an inkling (and Roger has read through it before I had it) of how scary it is in its original format. I won't say any more at all, because I really do want them to be surprised if they get to it.

Treasure standard

Special Abilities

Chaotic Nature (Su) - The forces of chaos so surround and fill this creature that it affects others who attack it. It gives the zaug damage resistance 5 that cannot be bypassed (and stacks with its 10/lawful DR), and a deflection bonus of +3.

Dire Contact (Su) - A creature that attempts to speak telepathically with a zaug or read its mind must make a Will save (DC 15) or go permanently insane--normally becoming catatonic, as though feebleminded, but sometimes becoming homicidal.  The creature must make a save each time it tries to use telepathy on the zaug, but it does not need to make the save if the zaug is the one communicating. In other words, this is an in-only defense.  The save DC is Charisma based.

Revulsion (Su) - Non-outsiders who look upon the zaug must make a Will saving throw (DC 15) or become either nausteated (1-10 d20) or sickened (11-20 d20). Whether or not a character saves, they are only affected once every 24- hours. The save DC is Charisma based.

Disease (Ex)­ - The claws, bite, and spew of a zaug carry devil chills (as per Core Rulebook 557, but the save is Fort 16 instead of 14).

Corruption Spew (Su) - Five times per day, a zaug can breathe a sixty foot cone of horrific, corrosive spew filled with rotting flesh, disease, poison, and even disgusting vermin such as maggots, worms, and flies.  The spew inflicts 10d6 points of acid damage (Refex DC 19 for half).  Further, anyone failing the save must make an additonal Fortitude save to avoid devil chills, as well as a Will save to avoid revulsion, regardless of if the character has made or failed the initial save against revulsion.

Vulnerabilities A zaug takes %50 again as much damage from force effects such as magic missile. It also takes %50 again as much damage from positive channeling and cure spells if it is targeted. Further, it does not need to be targeted during a positive burst to take damage from damage from it, though it only takes half damage. (example: Kit bursts to heal her party. The zaug still takes damage, even though creatures would normally need to be targeted to take damage.)

What the fuck?

What does this horror look like? Is it best I don't know for fear of losing sanity?

We'll scan it an upload it.

[The Good Reverend Roger]

Giant cockroach (Bestiary 2, pg 58) with the advanced, fiendish, and giant templates on it.  Keep in mind the diehard feat makes it damn near unkillable, and vermin traits keep it from being braingrabbed.
