Languages Common, Ignan, Terran
All-Around Vision (Ex) The Lava Queen’s snake hair allows her to see in all directions. She gains a +4 racial bonus to Perception checks and cannot be flanked.
Blistering Aura (Ex) Waves of heat pour off of the Lava Queen. Any creature within 20 feet of the Lava Queen at the beginning of its turn takes 1d6 nonlethal damage and becomes fatigued from exposure to heat. A DC 20 Fortitude save negates the fatigue and reduces the nonlethal damage by half. This does not cause a creature that is already fatigued to become exhausted. The save DC is Constitution-based.
Lava Body (Ex) The Lava Queen is made up of elemental lava. This allows her to create small masses that she can hurl at her opponents (see lavaball attack above), as well as for other purposes. In addition, when struck lava like ‘blood’ is released, causing 1d6 fire damage to attackers unless they have reach weapons, or make a DC 20 Dexterity saving throw to avoid. The save DC is Constitution-based.
Petrifying Gaze (Su) Turn to stone permanently, 30ft, Fortitude DC 20 negates. The save DC is Constitution-based. Unlike most medusa, the Lava Queen cannot be affected by her own gaze.
Poison (Ex) Bite – injury; save Fort DC 20; frequency 1/round for 6 rounds; effect 1d3 Str; cure 2 consecutive saves. The save DC is Constitution-based.
The Lava Queen is a unique medusa, combining the qualities of both her original form and that of an elemental. This additional power has made her arrogant, and creatures of elemental fire and earth are drawn to her. Unlike most of medusa, she is not subject to her own gaze, and so has become vain and preening.

All-Around Vision (Ex) Malarin’s hair snakes can see in all directions. She cannot be flanked.
Petrifying Gaze (Su) DC 19 The medusa’s gaze is a powerful weapon. Each opponent within 30 feet of Malarin must attempt a saving throw every round at the beginning of his turn. She doesn’t need to actively look at a victim or use an action to activate her gaze. The only defense against the gaze is to for a victim to close his eyes and fight blind or avert his eyes and have a 50% chance of avoiding her gaze. If an opponent within 30 feet is caught in her gaze and he fails a DC 19 Fort save, he turns to stone permanently. The save DC is Cha-based.
Poison (Ex) If a victim bitten by Malarin’s hair snakes fails a DC 18 Fort save, he suffers 1d3 Strength damage, 1/round for 6 rounds. Two consecutive successful saves stops the damage progression. The save DC is Con-based.
Death Touch (Su) 7/day Malarin’s melee touch attack deals 1d6+1 negative energy damage. Undead are healed and granted +2 channel resistance for 1 minute by it.
Near Death (Su) Malarin gains a +2 insight bonus on saves against diseases, mind-affecting effects, and poison.
Oracle’s Curse: Tongues (Infernal) (Ex) When in combat, Malarin is only able to understand and speak Infernal. This makes her immune to any effects that require her to comprehend spoken or sung words in other languages (including the Common she’s fluent in outside of combat), but as the two rogues don’t speak Infernal, she can’t give them orders or information once the battle begins. Abhilasha, though, speaks Infernal.

Poison (Ex) Bite—injury; save Fort DC 19; frequency 1/round for 6 rounds; effect 1d3 Str; cure 2 consecutive saves. The save DC is Constitution-based.
Smite Good (Su) Once per day, as a swift action, Izevel can smite good as the smite evil ability of a 10th level paladin, except affecting a good target. If the target is good, add +4 to attack rolls and +10 to all damage rolls against the target. If the target of smite good is an outsider with the good subtype or a good-aligned dragon, the bonus to damage on the first successful attack increases to 20 points of damage. Regardless of the target, smite attacks automatically bypass any DR the creature might possess. The smite persists until the target is dead or Izevel rests.

A creature that successfully saves cannot be affected again for 24 hours. The save DC is Charisma-based.
Paralyzing Touch (Su) Any living creature that Cthien hits with her touch attack must succeed on a DC 27 Fortitude save or be permanently paralyzed.

She is not subject to critical hits, nonlethal damage, ability damage to her physical ability scores, ability drain, energy drain, fatigue, exhaustion, or death from massive damage. She cannot be raised, and resurrection works only if she is willing.
