The shadow travels along a surface, and cannot travel to surfaces that are further away than its jump distance, or to surfaces that are not illuminated by its light source. If the shadow's surface is obscured by some closer surface, it is shunted to the nearest surface, if one exists within jumping range: if none exist, it is slain. If the shadow's light source is extinguished, it is slain. The shadow cannot occupy a surface more than 100 meters from its light source or beyond its Dim light range, whichever is shorter. If the shadow touches a different light source, it can stop being attuned to its previous light source in favor of this one.

It being shunted by things that obscure it, weapon and unarmed attacks simply shift it a distance equal to the attacker's reach in the direction of the attacker's choice, without need for attack or damage rolls.

If the creature is larger than the Reaper, the Reaper's appearance reverts when it enters a space that larger creature could not occupy. The Reaper gains an Advanced Specialty.

Extruder

The extruder is a ribcage and a tail. It moves by growing ribs from its spine and adding to its tail to maintain a height of up to 2 meters off the ground; this holds it in place well enough that it can travel up walls and ceilings. Only the tail part is actually part of the creature; the remainder of the ribcage is merely detritus.

Advancement

Greater Ribcage (50 points): The Extruder gets +4 meters to reach, and its rib-growing can maintain a height of up to 4 meters. Wounded creatures take another 1d6+4 damage (Muscle included) at the beginning of each of their turns spent held in place, not only the first one. It gains two Advanced Specialties.

Wormholes (50 points): As a move action, the Extruder can create an extradimensional space with two entry points on surfaces the Extruder can visualize within 8 meters, then move half of one of its move speeds. If the Extruder imagines a surface where there isn't one, the action is wasted. The entry points are barely wide enough for the Extruder (0.6 meters). The interior of the extradimensional space is 5 meters deep, and the Volume Ratio is 100. The space is dispelled when the Extruder creates a new one. It gains two Advanced Specialties and becomes [ Purple ].

The trask's unarmed attacks deal 1d6+8 damage (Muscle included).

It can spit globs of petrified death essence that deal 1d6+7 Cold damage (Muscle included) and have a range of 40m/80m; wounds inflicted on [ Undead ] creatures by this attack heal the creature by that much instead.

The Trask's particular usage of death energies mean that at the end of each of its turns, it heals 1 HP. If its HP becomes positive, it stops being Unconscious.

Any time the Trask would be dead, it is merely unconscious instead.

Advancement

Long Range Spit (75 points): The range of the Trask's death spit attack increases to 60m/220m. The Trask gains an Advanced Specialty.

Peluda (75 points): The Trask gains a full coat of sharp quill-like hair. This gives it a Heavy Muscle-Damage Quill Shake weapon, where it makes an attack for 1d6+7 Physical damage (Muscle included) against each other creature in a 30 meter spray. When the Trask is struck by an unarmed attack, the attacker takes 1d6+8 Physical damage (Muscle included). The Trask gains an Advanced Specialty.

As a standard action, the ghostmaster can create an illusion in a 6 meter radius Muscle-Area area anywhere it can see: this illusion lasts until the ghostmaster creates a new illusion. As a move action, the ghostmaster can move its current illusion up to 25 meters in the direction of its choice, and also animate or otherwise change the illusion for a round. If another creature moves into the area of the illusion (the illusion moving to surround the creature does not count), or begins its turn in the illusion, the ghostmaster may make a melee Magic-Damage attack against that creature for 1d6+3 Cold damage (Magic Power included). As a lesser action, the ghostmaster may create rasping or whispering voice sounds from the illusion, or the sounds of screeching or rattling chains.

If the ghostmaster's current illusion is ever more than 200 meters from itself, the illusion disappears and the ghostmaster must create a new one.

The illusion is bound to the ghostmaster. It can be an illusion of anything the Ghostmaster can imagine, can block vision, but cannot be so bright as to generate bright light out to more than 10 meters.

The ghostmaster's illusions deal 1 less damage in bright light.

Advancement

The bone monstrosity's unarmed attacks deal 1d6+12 damage (Muscle included) and fling each wounded creature 5d6 meters in the direction of the bone monstrosity's choice.

Because it is made of normal sized bones, it can squeeze through holes only 0.5 meters wide, but it gets a -3 penalty to accuracy while partially squeezed.

As a standard action AND move action, a bone monstrosity can glow with searing light, making a ranged Magic-Damage Muscle-Area attack that deals 1d6+3 Light damage (Magic Power included) to all other creatures and unattended objects in a 400 meter spray (Muscle included). [ Undead ] creatures that would be wounded by this searing light are brought under the bone monstrosity's control for that many rounds instead.

The thought parrot speaks by projecting words directly into the heads of creatures within 50 meters: it must be aware of a creature in order to speak to it, and can only communicate with up to five creatures per round.

As a standard action, the thought parrot can forcefully project extremely inane words into the mind of a creature it can speak to: the creature must make a Will Save or take 1d6 Mind damage (Magic Power included).

It gets Demolition +1.

Advancement

It has no hands. While closed, the tome cannot cast its spells, but recharges its expended charges. While open, the tome can cast, but not recharge. The tome's time to recharge resets when it casts a spell. Opening or closing the tome is a lesser action, but the tome cannot open or close itself. In order to cast spells of colors other than purple, the forbidding tome needs gems of the appropriate color(s).

Forbidding tomes do not need to perform the non-vocal casting actions of spells.

Forbidding tomes have their implanted gems on their covers.

Advancement

Controlled Run (5 points): When running with its teleport speed, instead of randomly going to one of the three chosen places, it randomly determines one of the three places that it can't go, and teleports to one of the other two. When running with any other speed, it may turn once. The Warp Tiger gets an Advanced Specialty.

Sound moles can only see one-quarter as far as normal due to their exceptionally poor eyesight.

Advancements

If it gets either of the following advancements, the Sound Mole becomes Paragon tier.

Displacer Beast (20 points): By speaking in a calm drone as a Standard AND Move action, the sound mole can swap positions with the contents of a region that's the same size within 60 meters. If a creature is in that space, it may make a Will Save. If any creature in the region succeeds on the Will Save, the effect is canceled; otherwise, all creatures and unattended objects in the region teleport to the sound mole's location, while the sound mole simultaneously teleports to the region. The sound mole gains an Advanced Specialty.

Brain Delver (20 points): The sound mole becomes moderately intelligent. When the sound mole successfully wounds a creature with an unarmed attack, it may force the creature to lose one class level of that creature's tier, if it has any, as well as the corresponding number of specialties and reduction in point cost. The creature chooses which class level and specialties to lose, and may later relearn the same or a different class level in its place, no sooner than one hour after being brain delved.

The living idea can perceive using that creature's senses, with its own Perception. Spells that force a Will Save may target the living idea instead of the host, if the caster so desires.

If the living idea's current host comes into contact with another creature (through an unarmed attack or a melee spell that requires an attack roll, for example), the living idea can use an immediate action to force the touched creature to make a Will save. If it fails the save, the living idea is transferred to that creature.

The living idea can choose to obscure, disguise, or fabricate all sensory data about one creature from the host, and changing which creature to obscure takes a standard action. Obscuring a creature consists of making that creature undetectable. Disguising a creature consists of changing its appearance (both visual and thermosympathetic), the sounds it makes, and its scent. Fabricating a creature consists of generating a false, potentially animated image of a creature in an unoccupied location, with sound and smell as well. Any of these falsehoods may be detected as though they were bluffs.

The living idea's current host can choose to give over control of its body to the living idea, by specifying an amount of time, from 1 to 15 minutes, in advance, as a standard action. During that time, the living idea's AD, GD, Accuracy, Stealth, Perception, Magic Power, Agility, and skills are used instead of the host's own, and the host acts on the living idea's turn, using the living idea's actions.

If the living idea remains in a dead host for one hour or more, it dies.

Advancement

Voice of Insinuation (20 points): As a standard action, the Living Idea can force its host to spend a lesser action speaking a phrase of the Living Idea's choice. One creature who can hear this phrase of the Living Idea's choice must make a Will Save or have the Living Idea transfer into its mind. The Living Idea gains an Advanced Specialty.

Battlefield of the Mind (50 points): The Living Idea possesses a convex extradimensional space with no entry points, totaling 30000 cubic meters in volume. When the Living Idea would transfer itself to another host, it may instead force that new creature to teleport into the extradimensional space: the creature chooses where in the space it arrives. Any creature in this extradimensional space can teleport to an open region within 2 meters of the Living Idea's host by taking a standard action to think and succeed on a Will Save with +2 to the DC. A creature that escapes the extradimensional space in this way can't be forced back into it for 24 hours.

The Living Idea detects everything inside its extradimensional space, but cannot transfer itself to the mind of a creature in the space. If there are no creatures inside its extradimensional space, it may reshape the space with 24 hours of concentration.

The Living Idea gains two Advanced Specialties.

The basilisk has one "hand", its beak, and deals 1d6+3 damage with unarmed attacks (Muscle included). If it successfully wounds a creature to 0 or less health, that creature is teleported into a small extradimensional space with a microscopic entry point on one of the basilisk's scales, barely large enough to fit the creature. All of the basilisk's extradimensional spaces are bound to the basilisk. The basilisk's extradimensional spaces are filled with stone toxin instead of air: as the creature is turned to stone, the basilisk digests its essence, and when the creature in one of the spaces is completely petrified the space is dispelled.

At the beginning of each creature's turn, if that creature can see the basilisk, it must make a Will Save or be stunned for 1 round. The DC increases by 1 if less than 10 meters away.

Advancement

Force Gaze (30 points): As a standard action, the Basilisk may attempt to compel a chosen creature to look at it. The creature must be able to hear the Basilisk speak: if it does, it must pass a Will Save with -2 to the DC or spend a move action on its next turn trying to get to a place where it can see the Basilisk. The Basilisk gains another Advanced Specialty.

Majestic Wings (30 points): The Basilisk grows two chicken wings, which add +14.5 meters to its jump distance. If it takes a standard action at the beginning of its turn, it may stop in the air in mid-jump at some point during its turn. It then falls at the end of its turn. The Basilisk gains another Advanced Specialty.

Extradimensional Cephalopod

The extradimensional cephalopod is some sort of aquatic invertebrate, with eight thick purple tentacles, each of which has a purple gem on the end.

The body itself remains inside a watery extradimensional space, with only its tentacles protruding, from eight eternally open entry points. Each entry point is a 1 meter radius circle, always aligned so that the water does not pour out, with an indestructible back. The body can teleport each entry point 150 meters as a standard action. If a tentacle's purple gem is removed, its entry point closes, and the tentacle is severed, although it can act on its own.

Advancement

All Cephalopod tentacles must receive the same advancements.

Leaptopus (10 points per tentacle): When the Extradimensional Cephalopod teleports its entry points, it may teleport each entry point up to 150 meters away from the location of any other of its entry points. The tentacles receive two Advanced Specialties.

Brain Grapple (50 points): As a standard action, the Extradimensional Cephalopod Body can force each other creature within its extradimensional space to make a Will save or have the Extradimensional Cephalopod control every word the creature sees, hears, or speaks (the Extradimensional Cephalopod senses each word and may choose alterations immediately). This is a bound effect, and the Extradimensional Cephalopod can only have six creatures bound in this way at a time. The body gains two Advanced Specialties.

As a standard action, the Multiplicity Golem can, for each extant instance of itself, create another instance of itself within 2 meters of that instance. As a move action, the Multiplicity Golem can remove any number of instances of itself less than all of them. All instances share a single HP value, Will-based effects, spell effects, diseases and poisons, but anything which moves an instance moves only that instance. The Multiplicity Golem has only one set of actions with which to act from any of its instances, but if it takes an action that includes movement, all instances may move using the chosen movement speed up to the specified distance.

All of the Multiplicity Golem's instances have the same equipment. If any instance of the Multiplicity Golem drops or loses an item or expends a charge, all other instances lose that item or charge. If any instance of the Multiplicity Golem picks up an item or regains a charge, all other instances of the Multiplicity Golem also gain that item or charge.

Multiplicity Golems live on a Diet of Souls, are quite smart, and each instance can speak one language, chosen upon duplication.

The Link Elephant can lumber through the spaces of creatures smaller than itself, dealing 1d6 damage to any creature it moves past in this way. Even if the Link Elephant moves through a creature multiple times, each creature only takes damage from this once during the same turn.

As an immediate action, when another creature within 4 meters would be healed by a healing effect, the Link Elephant can make that creature take that many wounds instead; or when another creature within 4 meters would be wounded by a damaging effect, the Link Elephant can make that creature heal that many wounds instead.

Advancement

Controlled Fling (10 points): When the Link Elephant would fling a creature for any reason, it may choose the direction. It gains two Advanced Specialties.

This [ Fear ] immunity is bound to the Scaredy-Cat.

Genies have two Magic-Damage Link Fist weapons, which deal 1d6+3 Physical damage and link wounded creatures together in the Genie's Network for 1 round per wound. Whenever a creature in the Network suffers from a damage roll for a reason other than the Network, each other creature in the Network suffers from the same damage roll minus 2.

As a standard action, it can force a target it can see within 75 meters to make a Will Save or spend a move action on its next turn moving as close to the Genie as possible.

By touching an unconscious character continuously for one minute, the Genie may implant a wish in that character's mind. The character now wishes that thing more than anything else in the world. If the character gets their wish, they are no longer obsessed with it. Genies like to implant wishes in characters before letting them go, so they don't make very good jailors. Each genie has a particular favorite wish.

Advancement

Lichdom (35 points): The Genie is [ Undead ], and gets -1 Perception while exposed to bright light. By touching a dead character as a standard action attack against AD, the character is reanimated with the Revenant class and a fresh Soul that wants nothing other than the Genie's choice of wish. The character serves the Genie willingly as a member of its party, unless its existence causes its party to go over the point limit, in which case it immediately leaves the party and spends the next hour running away. The Genie gains two Advanced Specialties and becomes [ White ].

Ascension (30 points): If a creature granted a wish by this genie gets its wish after more than a year, it transforms into a Genie. The Genie's aerobatics distance decreases by 3 meters. The Genie gains two Advanced Specialties.

The unicorn's unarmed attacks deal 1d6+5 damage (Muscle included).

It also has a melee Muscle-Damage Brutal Skewer attack which deals 1d6+6 Physical damage (Muscle included), and any creature wounded by this skewering becomes the unicorn's devoted protector and minion for 1 round per wound.

As a standard action, the unicorn can gently touch a creature with its horn to cure that creature of any psychological or emotional problems the unicorn chooses; this somewhat reduces the creature's ability to experience those emotions in any context. A creature touched in this way gets a Will Save to resist.

As a standard action, the unicorn can emit calming waves of energy. Creatures within 20 meters (including the unicorn) must make a Will Save with -1 to the DC or be stunned for 1 round.

Advancement

Nightmare (20 points): When the unicorn kills a creature, all enemies within 30 meters find the unicorn Frightening X, where X is the unicorn's Save DC -1. The range of the unicorn's calming waves increases by 10 meters. The unicorn gains an Advanced Specialty.

Gravitational Inversion (20 points): The unicorn can invert gravity for itself freely. This lets its jump distance become infinite, and if it uses brief inversions to reduce its falling speed to 125 meters per round or less, it doesn't take fall damage. If it attempts to flip between ceiling or floor during an action, and the two are less then 20 meters apart, it must succeed on a DC 6 Agility check or fall prone. The unicorn gains an Advanced Specialty.

The chimera's heads act and are targeted separately, but move with the body. Each head has one "hand", its mouth, and deals 1d6+2 damage with unarmed attacks (Muscle included). The body has no "hands" but it deals 1d6+5 damage with unarmed attacks (Muscle included). If the body is slain, or all of the heads are slain, the Chimera dies.

Depending on the color, the head gets different powers:

[ Orange ]: As a standard action, it can breathe a 30 meter, 90 degree conical Muscle-Area blast of fire, which makes a ranged Magic-Damage attack against AD on each creature and unattended object in the area for 1d6+1 Heat damage. Wounded targets are lit on fire.

[ Purple ]: As a standard action, the head can spit spatial phlegm at a creature, as a ranged Muscle-Damage attack against GD with a range of 30m/100m, for 1d6+3 Physical damage (Muscle included). If the creature is wounded, the Chimera may teleport that creature 5 meters in any direction.

The head is not very smart, but knows and can speak every language.

[ White ]: As a standard action, the head can heal each head, and the main body, for 1 wound each.

The head is moderately smart, and can speak.

[ Blue ]: As a standard action, it can spit lightning at each of three targets within 120 meters, making a ranged Magic-Damage attack against AD for each one. The lightning deals 1d6+1 Electricity damage (Magic Power included), and Stuns on a successful wound.

[ Green ]: As a standard action, the head can change its color to any other color for 1 minute.

Advancement

Fourth Head: The Chimera gains a fourth head, which may be of a color it already has a head for.
