Resembling crystalline gargoyles with serrated limbs and sharp, bat-like faces, sceaduinar stand about 7 feet tall and weigh around 100 pounds. These malevolent beings sometimes gather in great packs of their own kind. Despite their intelligence, they act like cunning, feral beasts for the most part, though they occasionally build tools to aid them in extinguishing life. Sceaduinar sail through the great voids of their home plane, seeking to destroy any sparks of life that find their way into that deadly realm—even the twisted sparks found in undead creatures. When they discover portals to other planes, sceaduinar swarm through in great numbers, slaughtering all they come across. While dwelling outside the Negative Energy plane is uncomfortable for sceaduinar, they can exist for extended periods of time apart from their home. Of course, the feeling of a plane where negative energy isn''t the rule doesn''t improve these creatures'' attitude, and as a result, they tend to be particularly cruel and violent when encountered in such realms. **__Recall Knowledge - Aberration__ (__Occultism__)**: DC 28 ' hp: 100 hp_misc: negative healing immunities: - death effects - drained items: null languages: - Aklo level: 7 melee: - action_cost: One Action damage: formula: 2d6+4 type: piercing name: jaws plus_damage: - formula: 2d6 type: negative and drain life to_hit: 18 traits: - agile - finesse - magical - action_cost: One Action damage: formula: 2d6+4 type: slashing name: wing plus_damage: - formula: 2d6 type: negative to_hit: 18 traits: - agile - finesse - magical - reach 10 feet name: Sceaduinar perception: 15 proactive_abilities: - action_cost: None critical_failure: null critical_success: null description: When the sceaduinar damages a living creature with its jaws Strike, the sceaduinar gains 5 temporary Hit Points and the creature must succeed at a DC 25 Fortitude save or become __drained 1__.
