Thrull (3.5e Template)

Thrull

3e Summary::These twisted creatures were literally bred to die, ensuring their masters an unlimited supply for their human sacrifices.

Over time these masters learned to put them to over use, as well as the torturous, and disturbingly swift assimilation of captured slaves; regressing in a matter of days to become Thrulls themselves.

Full Attack

Special Qualities

Twisted Nature: Thrulls do not die if their ability scores are reduced to 0 or less. Instead, they treat any score of 0 or less as though they had a non-ability, or a score of --, until that ability is raised to 1 or greater. If the Thrull has any special abilities which were previously based on this non-ability score (likely intelligence or charisma), they may continue to use those abilities, but take a -5 on any DC, or d20 roll regarding that ability.

Indentured fortitude: +4 bonus on fortitude saves against poison, disease and paralysis. -1 on all saves against spells, spell-like abilities and supernatural abilities.

gollark: Why?

gollark: Please what, "death"life23?

gollark: Ah. "Matt" Howell. Is that even your real name?

gollark: Also networking?

gollark: I mean, the advantage of datacentres, I guess, are just centralized chunkloading and possibly auto-power-on systems.
