DC Result
15 Though uncertain exactly what this creature is, you can tell it is not native to this world. This result reveals all outsider traits.
26 This creature is a planetar, an angelic race of creatures with a hatred of all fiends whose members serve as the generals of celestial armies. This result reveals all angel traits.
31 Despite their vast array of magical powers, planetars usually prefer to enter melee, wielding their massive enchanted greatswords. Their natural weapons and any weapons wielded are good aligned and they are vulnerable to evil weapons, though damage from other sources will regenerate.
36 As well as a large range of spell-like abilities, planetars can also call upon the divine spells of the deities they serve, much in the same way as a very powerful cleric, and they are highly resilient to magical attacks.

Special Abilities
Spells Planetars cast divine spells as 16th-level clerics. They do not gain access to domains or other cleric abilities.

Planetars are the generals of celestial armies. A typical planetar stands 9 feet tall and weighs 500 pounds. They focus on combat and the destruction of evil; though they understand diplomacy, a planetar would rather lead the charge against an army of fiends than negotiate peace.
