Thievish Abilities: none

Other Abilities / Powers / Notes:

  1. Have an Elementalist Aspect, enabling Them to Cast Spells of that Aspect as an Elementalist of ElL = DL/2.
  2. Invulnerability 3: invulnerable to non-magical and silver attacks, vulnerable to magical attacks, other beings with Invulnerability 3 are vulnerable to it.  For further details see the Notes to the Elementalist Invulnerability Spell.
  3. DL% Magic Resistance: before It takes any Magical Spell or Effect (whether or not a saving throw needs to be made) roll > Magic Resistance on d100 or it has no effect.  Does not apply to DAM from magic weapons (but does apply to non-damage effects caused by those weapons).  Demon can waive the Magic Resistance, like choosing not to make a st.
  4. Regenerate @ 1 HP/MR in sec 6 of every MR, including that in which first take Damage.  Only Fire, Acid or Disintegration will prevent Regeneration.  The body Regenerates from the largest surviving piece.
  5. Has separate Real, Ethereal and Astral Forms.  Can shapechange at will into another such form, thus appearing on the appropriate Plane with all possessions (which may include captured Beings) It is carrying as encumbrance at the equivalent point on that Plane to that on the Plane It just left.  If It suffers a Death result, only the Form it currently in is killed, and It loses that Form for a year and a Caeriad, but may continue unaffected in the remaining Forms.  If all Forms are lost, It is really Dead and Its soul goes to the House of Karma for reincarnation.  See the appropriate environment pages for further details on the Ethereal and Astral Planes.
  6. Has a True Name, rendering It liable to be Bound in accordance with the Demon Summoning system.  Teleports into the Outer Circle to which It has been Summoned, unless It is currently being Summoned (in which case the Summoning is deferred, multiple Summonings queuing in chronological order).  On being Dismissed, Teleports back whence It came.  Does not have the Power to Teleport voluntarily; only in response to Summoning.
  7. When Bound in Circle must use any of Its Powers or abilities as ordered.
  8. When Bound in Triangle must agree in a binding fashion to perform one service for the Operator, subject to sufficient payment, or must give a Pact to serve Operator for 1 Cd at any future time upon True Name call, subject to sufficient payment (usually a soul).
  9. Does not usually have minions, so does not give Familiars.
