Elemental Fiend, Firefiend (3pp)

This elemental creature resembles a cone with three sides. Each side sports a single arm, leg, and face. In each arm, the creature carries fierce-looking weapon. Each face seems to be identical and all are twisted in terrifying grimaces and constant spout obscenities in a strange language. Each face has glowing eyes.

SPECIAL ABILITIES

All-Around Vision (Ex)

An elemental fiend’s three faces allow it to see in all directions at once. It cannot be flanked.

Burn (Ex)

A firefiend deals fire damage in addition to damage dealt on a successful hit in melee. Those affected by the burn ability must also succeed on a DC 17 Reflex save or catch fire, taking 1d6 fire damage for an additional 1d4 rounds at the start of its turn. A burning creature can attempt a new save as a full-round action. Dropping and rolling on the ground grants a +4 bonus on this save. Creatures that hit a firefiend with natural weapons or unarmed attacks take fire damage as though hit by the firefiend and must make a Reflex save to avoid catching on fire. The save DC is Constitution-based.

Spit Cinder (Su)

Once per round as a swift action, a firefiend can spit a fiery cinder to a range of 10 feet at one opponent. If struck by the cinder, the target takes 1 point of fire damage and must succeed on a DC 15 Reflex save or catch on fire.

Willful Weapon (Su)

A disarmed elemental fiend can will its weapon to return to its hand on its turn as a free action, as long as the weapon is within 30 ft. of the elemental fiend and is in its line of sight and line of effect. The weapon automatically returns to the elemental fiend’s hand even if the weapon is being held by another creature.

ECOLOGY

Environment Plane of Fire
Organization solitary
Treasure standard

An elemental fiend is a rare creature from one of the elemental planes that takes the form of a roughly human-sized pillar of its native element. Upon first glance, an elemental fiend strongly resembles an elemental of the same size, but beyond that the resemblance ends. It has three faces, three legs, and an arm between each face. Each arm wields a masterwork melee weapon of unknown origin. Its three faces constantly scowl and scream at opponents, howling and babbling vulgar curses in its native tongue.

An elemental fiend attacks primarily with its weapons. It positions itself in such a way as to bring as many weapons to bear on a single opponent as possible. Because each face controls an arm, it can attack with all three weapons in one round without penalty. An elemental fiend cannot battle a single opponent with more than two of its weapons, but it can battle one, two, or three different opponents at the same time.

Firefiends are typically found on the Plane of Fire. Their weapons are masterwork longswords forged of an unknown red-gold metal. They are constantly warm to the touch and are immune to fire damage. They have fiery designs that run the length of the blade.
