TACTICS

Before Combat He casts shield of faith and imbibes his potion of spider climb.

During Combat He prefers to attack opponents in his own lair. If encountered elsewhere, he tries to retreat into that area to have better maneuverability and options. He uses darkness to conceal himself to make sneak attacks with his poisoned throwing axes, and attempts to draw enemies into hazardous areas of his lair.

Morale If reduced to 10 hit points or fewer, he retreats to collect his minions before escaping using spider climb.

SPECIAL ABILITIES

Death Throes (Su)

When a dark creeper is slain, its body combusts in a flash of bright white light, leaving its gear in a heap on the ground. All creatures within a 10-foot burst must make a DC 13 Fortitude save or be blinded for 1d6 rounds. Other dark creepers within 10 feet are automatically blinded for at least 1 round, due to their light blindness. The save is Constitution-based.

Poison (Ex)

Black Smear – injury; save Fort DC 15; frequency 1/round for 6 rounds; effect 1d2 Str; cure 1 save

Poison Use (Ex)

Dark creepers are skilled in the use of poison and never risk accidentally poisoning themselves.

Rag Armor (Ex)

A dark creeper’s multiple layers of filthy rags function as leather armor when worn by one of their kind.
