3e SRD:Half-Celestial
Half-Celestial
"Half-celestial" is a template that can be added to any corporeal creature with an Intelligence score of 4 or more and nonevil alignment (referred to hereafter as the "base creature"). The creature’s type changes to "outsider." It uses all the base creature’s statistics and special abilities except as noted here.
Speed: There is a 75% chance that a half-celestial has feathered wings. The creature can fly at twice the base creature’s normal speed (good maneuverability).
AC: Natural armor improves by +1.
Special Attacks: A half-celestial retains all the special attacks of the base creature and also gains the supernatural ability to use light at will as the spell. Half-celestials with an Intelligence or Wisdom score of 8 or higher possess the following spell-like abilities, using their level as the caster level, as specified in the table below. Unless otherwise indicated, the ability is usable once per day.
Level | Abilities |
---|---|
1–2 | Protection from evil, 3/day, bless |
3–4 | Aid, detect evil |
5–6 | Cure serious wounds, neutralize poison |
7-8 | Holy smite, remove disease |
9–10 | Dispel evil |
11-12 | Holy word |
13-14 | Holy aura 3/day, hallow |
15-16 | Symbol |
17-18 | Summon monster IX (celestials only) |
19+ | Resurrection |
