The
wild magic that swirls around the Frozen City often opens cracks to other
planes of existence, and occasionally something truly horrific slips through.
Although they are extremely rare, the monsters dubbed ‘Eye Demons’ are some of
the most dangerous and feared of all extra-planar entities.
All eye demons have the following
demonic attributes (as found in Frostgrave: Forgotten Pacts): Demonic Strength,
Levitation, Magic Sink, Mind Lock, Petrifying Stare, True Sight, Two Heads.
Eye demons are all spellcasters.
Every eye demons knows three spells: Elemental Bolt, and two more, rolled
randomly on the table below. The casting number for each spell is 6. Whenever
an eye demon activates, it automatically attempts to cast all three of its
spells as one action if there are targets in line of sight. It will cast these
spells even if it is in combat and does not have to roll randomly for the
target of any shooting attacks generated. It will cast Elemental Bolt at the
closest warband member in line of sight. It will cast its second spell at the
second closest warband member in line of sight, and its third spell at the
third closest. If there are less than three legitimate targets, it will start
over with the closest. Eye demons never suffer any damage from failing to cast
spells, but they may not empower them either.
Castings these spells counts as the
demon’s first action. Eye demons follow this priority order.
1.
Cast
spells if a warband member is in line of sight. Use second action to fight if
in combat, or move directly away from nearest warband member if not in combat.
2.
If
no warband members are in line of sight, make a random move. If a warband
member is now in line of sight, use second action to cast spells. Otherwise,
end activation.
A wizard receives +25 experience
points if a member of his warband kills and eye demon.

Very cool! Is it possible to summon in some way this lethal weapon?
ReplyDeleteIf I knew how to do it - I would tell anyone!
DeleteI got one of those on the way in the post! Along with a really cool owlbear!
ReplyDeleteVery nice! But I have to wonder...how compatible are these stats with Rangers of Shadow Deep?
