Caster level 11th. The save DCs are Charisma-based.
During Combat Alastors spend a great deal of time hunting down potential victims, either at the behest of the Magistrate Cabal or for their own amusement. Once a victim has been chosen, they prefer to use greater teleport to take the quarry by surprise. All encounters begin with an alastor pronouncing sentence. (Though the purpose of this ability is to exact vengeance upon the enemies of the nalfeshnee in the Magistrate Cabal, alastors prefer to use it against all of their victims.) Thereafter, it attacks with its spell-like abilities and vengeful scythe.
An alastor’s natural weapons, as well as any weapons it wields, are treated as chaotic-aligned and evil-aligned for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.

Environment The Abyss
Organization Solitary, posse (2–5 alastors), or court (1 nalfeshnee and 2–5 alastors)
Treasure Standard coins; double goods; no items
Pronounce Sentence (Su) Once every 3 rounds, an alastor may point at a single enemy and pronounce sentence upon it by uttering the word “guilty” in Abyssal. The target must immediately make a Will save (DC 17). This is a sonic, mind-affecting effect. If the save is successful, the creature cannot be affected again by that alastor’s pronounce sentence ability for one day. Those who fail immediately drop anything in hand and kneel upon the ground, presenting their necks for a killing blow. A kneeling opponent is considered helpless. The effect lasts 2d4 rounds or until dispelled. The save DC is Charisma-based.
Vengeful Scythe (Ex) An alastor’s weapon is a +1 anarchic, unholy scythe. Further, it ignores the damage reduction of even the most powerful demons (which is one of the reasons even balors fear an alastor on the prowl). The scythe disappears when the alastor dies or if separated from its owner for more than 24 hours. An alastor whose scythe has vanished can magically summon a new one as a full-round action.
True Seeing (Su) Alastors continuously use this ability, as the spell (caster level 11th).
Standing as tall as an ogre but possessing the lithe, muscular frame of an athletic human, this creature has dull mustard-yellow skin and wields a great scythe. Spiky bone ridges cluster at its elbows, shoulders, and on the back of its lizard-like head, out of which shine bright red eyes.;
Many planar travelers make the mistake of assuming that, because the Abyss is chaotic, the demons who dwell within it have no laws. A consortium of nalfeshnee known as the Magistrate Cabal give the lie to such mistaken impressions, and alastors are their servants
From a layer called Black Regulus, these thirteen masked nalfeshnee debate and draft laws that govern the behavior of demons, souls, and visitors from the Material Plane alike.
They then sit in judgment of violators (who most often are tried in absentia), sentencing many to horrific tortures or gruesome death. To the casual observer (and even some dedicated scholars), the body of law created by the Magistrate Cabal is contradictory at best, changing on what appears to be the whim of the nalfeshnee. The laws defer to the demon princes, never seeking to limit their power or influence. Everyone else would ignore the Cabal’s rulings like the mad ramblings they are save for one factor: the alastors.
If the nalfeshnee serve as the legislators and judges in this bizarre legal charade, alastors serve as the executioners. The Cabal dispatches alastors from their lair, entrusting the creatures with carrying out whatever sentence it has decreed (almost always that of death). After an alastor has pronounced sentence, its chosen victim can either fight or run away. In the court of the Abyss, there are no appeals.
Armed with magic scythes that ignore the natural protections of demons, alastors strike fear into the desiccated hearts of all but the hardiest demons. Alastors especially hate those who would bring goodness or just law to the Abyss, and they attempt to destroy such interlopers regardless of the decrees of their masters.
In addition to the massive scythes carried by all alastors, the more dramatic executioner demons deck themselves in voluminous robes and carry hourglasses, gavels, and other symbols of judgment.

Crushing Coils (Ex) A creature that takes damage from a marilith's constrict attack must succeed on a DC 25 Fortitude save or lose consciousness for 1d8 rounds. The save DC is Strength-based.
Infuse Weapon (Su) Any weapon a marilith wields gains a +1 enhancement bonus to attack and damage, and strikes as if it were a chaotic and evil cold iron weapon (in addition to retaining the qualities of its actual composition).
Multiweapon Mastery (Ex) A marilith never takes penalties to her attack roll when fighting with multiple weapons.
Constrict (Ex) A marilith deals 4d6+13 points of damage with a successful grapple check. The constricted creature must succeed on a DC 27 Fortitude save or lose consciousness for as long as it remains in the coils and for 2d4 rounds thereafter. The save DC is Strength-based.
Darkvision (Ex) Darkvision is the extraordinary ability to see with no light source at all, out to a range specified for the creature. Darkvision is black and white only (colors cannot be discerned). It does not allow characters to see anything that they could not see otherwise-invisible objects are still invisible, and illusions are still visible as what they seem to be. Likewise, darkvision subjects a creature to gaze attacks normally. The presence of light does not spoil darkvision.
Fast Healing (Ex) You regain 23 hit points per round. Fast healing does not restore hit points lost from starvation, thirst, or suffocation, and it does not allow a creature to regrow lost body parts.
Improved Grab (Ex) To use this ability, a marilith must hit with its tail slap attack. It can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity. If it succeeds on the grapple check, it can constrict.
Summon Demon (Ex) Once per day a marilith can attempt to summon 4d10 dretches, 1d4 hezrou, or one nalfeshnee with a 50% chance of success, or one glabrezu or another marilith with a 20% chance of success. This ability is the equivalent of a 5th-level spell.
True Seeing (Su) Mariliths continuously use this ability, as the spell (caster level 16th).
Vulnerability To Cold (Ex) You take half again as much (+50%) damage as normal from Cold, regardless of whether a saving throw is allowed, or if the save is a success or failure
This snake-bodied fiend has a six-armed woman's torso, pointed ears, and glittering, otherworldly eyes.
The leaders of Abyssal hordes and queens of Abyssal nations, the dreaded mariliths serve demon lords as governesses, advisors, and even lovers, yet their brilliance as tacticians makes them most sought after as generals and commanders of armies. The most powerful mariliths serve no one, and instead command ravenous fiendish legions. A marilith is 6 to 9 feet tall and measures 20 feet from head to tail tip. It weighs 4,000 pounds. Only the most arrogant and proud evil souls, typically those of cruel kings, sadistic generals, and exceptionally violent warlords, can trigger the manifestation of a marilith.

During Combat Although Ariel is not afraid of getting into a fight, he is reluctant to do so, always seeking another way to resolve conflicts. In such situations, Ariel will bring his tremendous diplomacy to bear, encouraging would-be assailants from doing something they will regret. The only time Ariel is not likely to try to talk his way out of violence is when he encounters Fiends or powerful, evil clerics (10th level) or undead (9th level).
When Ariel does see that fighting is inevitable, he immediately surrounds himself with his protective aura and then casts true seeing. He will often cast holy aura if time permits before diving into battle, smashing with his shield and slashing with his sword. Once in the midst of melee combat, Ariel will issue his Roar of the Heavens, seeking to damage or destroy as many evil beings as possible. Ariel does not use spells frequently during combat, believing that there is no honor in fighting from a distance. Only in the gravest of circumstances will Ariel use his Holy Beacon.

Gear Ariel always carries his sword, Heaven's Roar, a beautiful sword that has a blade resembling a shaft of light with a hilt of gold. A gift from the Virtues of the Seven Mounting Heavens of Celestia, Ariel continues to carry the sword despite his banishment from the Heavens. Ariel also always wears an elaborate +5 breastplate of freedom, weightless armor that does not impose any skill or Dexterity penalties, and a +2 small steel shield. Ariel likely has access to other treasure, although it is probably hidden in his unknown base of operations.
Environment Wanders the Outer and Prime Material Planes
Organization Unique (Solitary), or Ariel and Sky Talon (advanced celestial dire lion)
Treasure Triple coins, six times goods, triple standard items (Heaven's Roar)
Kerubim Qualities (Ex) Ariel is immune to acid, cold, and petrifaction; he possesses electricity resistance 10 and fire resistance 10 and receives a +4 save against poisons. He may communicate as if under the effects of the tongues spell. As a free action during his turn, Ariel may generate a protective aura which acts as a double strength magic circle against evil and as a globe of invulnerability, both cast as a 20th level sorcerer; the aura can be dispelled, but Ariel can create it again as a free action on his turn.
Holy Touch (Ex) Ariel's touch can enchant any weapon (only weapons tainted with evil, intelligent weapons, or artifacts are unaffected). All weapons acquire the flame-burst enhancement. Certain types of weapons receive additional benefits. Any slashing weapon functions as a +2 holy vorpal weapon. Any piercing weapon functions as a +6 holy weapon of the appropriate bane type. Any bludgeoning weapon functions as a +5 holy disrupting weapon. Once Ariel sets the weapon down, it loses the enhancement.
Celestial Song (Su) Once per day as a full round action, Ariel can sing a Celestial Song. All mortal beings within 30 feet of Ariel receive a Will save DC 27. Those that fail are subject to one of two effects determined by Ariel. Ariel can opt to calm emotions (which he casts as a 20th level sorcerer) or he can induce awe. When inducing awe, all good beings within the radius that fail, find themselves unable to take any offensive action against Ariel, although they may defend themselves or attack other creatures. Neutral creatures are slowed, as they struggle not to gape at the Celestial in awe. Evil creatures behave as if affected by fear.
Fast Healing (Ex) Ariel takes normal damage from evil weapons of at least +6 enhancement.
Holy Beacon (Su) Ariel may issue a Holy Beacon as a free action once a day. The Beacon extends for nine miles of Ariel's location when issued. All goodly beings within the radius immediately sense that Ariel, a servant of goodness, is in need of assistance and will rush to him with all possible speed. Alerted beings instantly know Ariel's precise location, his current status (health, etc.), any adversaries Ariel is aware of, and the nature/goal of the Beacon. If used in the Planes, there is a 7% chance that one of the Heralds of Holiness, particularly Rafiel, will hear the call regardless of Ariel's location. Ariel has only used his Beacon two or three times over the past 500,000 years, and only when he gets into combat against the forces of the Gray Wastes in neutral territory, like the Outlands. Sure of his own strength and might, Ariel is usually more than capable enough to handle any conflict.
Heavenly Breeze (Ex) Although a powerful warrior, Ariel has dedicated himself to curing all ailments of the body and the soul. 3/day, with a gentle flap of his tremendous, feathered wings, Ariel can issue a Heavenly Breeze. The Breeze has three simultaneous spell-like effects, all performed as if cast by a 20th level sorcerer under the effects of the Empowered Feat. The Breeze will remove disease, cure critical wounds, and grant restoration to all within the 70 foot cone before Ariel. Ariel can determine if a being is granted this boon or not. Although he·s loathed to use this gift in the following manner, Ariel can cause the reverse of the above spells (Contagion, inflict critical wounds, and poison) once a day.
Roar of the Heavens (Su) There are few things Ariel hates, but Fiends and evil are on the list. When faced with a terrible evil or the threat of the denizens of the Depths Below, Ariel can issue his famous Roar of the Heavens. All evil beings within 70 feet of Ariel may perform a Fortitude DC save 27; those that fail are slowed, suffer a -2 circumstance penalty to attacks, damage, and saves, are deafened, and suffer 9d6 points of damage (half of it holy, the other half sonic). Those that manage to save only suffer the damage. Fiends, in addition to suffering from the above effects, also take an additional 24 points of damage, holy and sonic, each round they are within 70 feet of Ariel for seven rounds after the Lion of the Gods issued his Roar. Ariel may issue his roar of the Heavens once every 1d6 rounds.
Spells (Ex) Paladin spells per day: 5/4/4/4. Base DC 15 + spell level. Caster level 20th.
Golden roaring lion head with eagle-like wings appearing from either side. Ariel appears as a tall, beautifully built man with tawny, beige skin, long black and gold hair, and tremendous muscles. A golden breastplate dominates his chest, while his huge, white feathered wings flare from his back. Although his face is like that of a handsome young man, when in combat, it takes on decidedly feline elements not unlike those of a lion.
Ariel, the Lion of the Righteous Gods, was once a powerful Astral Deva who persecuted the Fiends of the Depths Below to a degree beyond that of most other Celestials. Working under the auspices of the fearsome Virtue of Justice, Ariel was given free reign to pursue justice against Fiends and their allies. During the millennia of his many quests, Ariel came to the aid of the Herald of Holiness, Rafiel, forging a deep friendship with the arch-Celestial that would be of great value in the future.The Supreme Virtue of Mount Celestia, growing wary of the regular interference of Celestials in matters related to the Depths Below and the Prime, and fearing another Great Fall, issued a decree that would limit the activities of Heavenly (lawful) Celestials not directly tied to the gods. This edict required that the likes of Ariel withdraw from regular engagements with the forces of Evil in accordance with the Celestial Host. Although the Virtue of Justice had no choice but to accept the decree of his liege, Ariel refused, claiming that allowing the evil of the infernal regions to grow unabated would lead to the eventual collapse of the Prime Material Plane, and eventually the Realms Above. Ariel continued his personal quest, and, for his obstinance, the Supreme Virtue banished him from Mount Celestia.
Since, Ariel has continued to undertake quests in pursuit of justice and healing, ever ready to war with Fiends, particularly disease and lie spreading Yugoloths. Although he laments the decree of Heaven, Ariel is not angered with his former masters and continues to receive aid (covertly) from the Virtue of Justice. He is also always welcome in Elysium, where his longtime friend and current mentor, Rafiel, assists him. Ariel also finds himself called on by various good gods to perform quests, most of them related to aiding powerful mortal servants as they fight against powerful evils, particularly Fiends.
Sky Talon: Ariel is always accompanied by his mount, Sky Talon, a celestial dire lion of tremendous size. To date, Ariel has not shared how he came upon this truly magnificent animal, but the two are inseparable. Sky Talon is never more than a mile from Ariel and can instantly sense when his master and friend requires his aid.

The day Claravda was born, her house started planning the downfall of its chief rival in the drow city where she grew up. As she matured, she could follow the ways of Urgathoa rather than Lolth, so that she could learn the necromantic arts that priests of Lolth cannot access. When she was grown, the battle between the two houses began, and Claravda proved key to the victory of her house. It was a pyrrhic victory, however, as most of her own house was destroyed along with the rival house. Left without a power base, Claravda took control of the remaining drow and led them into the Underdark to recruit their strength. They strike from there to this day, growing in power and waiting for the day when they will return to their home.

Undead always accompany Claravda, even at her lowest level. As soon as she could animate the dead, she began using skeletons, then stronger undead, as her guards. She hardly needs a guard, as she is fierce in combat and loves the smell of blood and gore. At higher levels, she also has drow or other lackeys. She fights to use her powers over the dead to her best advantage, and she proves quite deadly. One of her favorite tactics: animating the bodies of dead adventurers in the middle of a battle, then turning them on their one-time friends. That maneuver is usually good for a -2 circumstance bonus for at least one round.

Claravda and her allies need not be used in the Underdark, though that is where they feel most at home. They could be found in a city at night, engaged in some evil that furthers her long-range plans.

Formed in the unholy union between a newly ordained drow high priestess and a powerful demon, a Draegloth is a half-fiend terror that stalks the Underdark.

While half-fiends of all varieties are not as rare as one might hope, draegloths are perhaps the only variety that is regularly, intentionally, even ritually created by a mortal race. The look like 8-foot-tall drow elves, with inky black skin and a knotted mane of yellowish-white hair. Their hides are thick and covered with a fine coat of white hair, and their bodies are powerfully muscled. Two of their four arms end in powerful claws; the other two, much smaller, end in normal hands that some of these creatures can use for spellcasting. Their faces have a bestial cast, slightly elongated to resemble a dog's muzzle, and their mouths are full of vicious, sharp teeth. Draegloths have darkvision with a range of 60 feet. They speak Abyssal and Undercommon.

Drageloths delight in carnage and wade into battle without fear. Though reasonably intelligent, they are no geniuses, and are impatient in matters of strategy. They disdain weapons, for they love the feeling of tearing opponents apart with their claws and teeth. Their favored class is cleric.

Rebuke Undead 7/day (Su) 4th-level cleric [3 class + 4 from Extra Turning feat]

Spontaneous Casting (Sp) Can convert any prepared spell to an inflict wounds spell of the same level

Domains (Sp) Cleric Domains (the Undeath domain comes from Forgotten Realms Campaign Guide, spell list below) Death -- Death touch 1/day; If she makes a successful melee touch attack against a living creature, she rolls 2d6. If the total is greater than the opponent's current hit points, the opponent dies. Undeath -- free Extra Turning feat (included below)

The day Claravda was born, her house started planning the downfall of its chief rival in the drow city where she grew up. As she matured, she could follow the ways of Urgathoa rather than Lolth, so that she could learn the necromantic arts that priests of Lolth cannot access. When she was grown, the battle between the two houses began, and Claravda proved key to the victory of her house. It was a pyrrhic victory, however, as most of her own house was destroyed along with the rival house. Left without a power base, Claravda took control of the remaining drow and led them into the Underdark to recruit their strength. They strike from there to this day, growing in power and waiting for the day when they will return to their home.

Undead always accompany Claravda, even at her lowest level. As soon as she could animate the dead, she began using skeletons, then stronger undead, as her guards. She hardly needs a guard, as she is fierce in combat and loves the smell of blood and gore. At higher levels, she also has drow or other lackeys. She fights to use her powers over the dead to her best advantage, and she proves quite deadly. One of her favorite tactics: animating the bodies of dead adventurers in the middle of a battle, then turning them on their one-time friends. That maneuver is usually good for a -2 circumstance bonus for at least one round.

Claravda and her allies need not be used in the Underdark, though that is where they feel most at home. They could be found in a city at night, engaged in some evil that furthers her long-range plans.

Formed in the unholy union between a newly ordained drow high priestess and a powerful demon, a Draegloth is a half-fiend terror that stalks the Underdark.

While half-fiends of all varieties are not as rare as one might hope, draegloths are perhaps the only variety that is regularly, intentionally, even ritually created by a mortal race. The look like 8-foot-tall drow elves, with inky black skin and a knotted mane of yellowish-white hair. Their hides are thick and covered with a fine coat of white hair, and their bodies are powerfully muscled. Two of their four arms end in powerful claws; the other two, much smaller, end in normal hands that some of these creatures can use for spellcasting. Their faces have a bestial cast, slightly elongated to resemble a dog's muzzle, and their mouths are full of vicious, sharp teeth. Draegloths have darkvision with a range of 60 feet. They speak Abyssal and Undercommon.

Drageloths delight in carnage and wade into battle without fear. Though reasonably intelligent, they are no geniuses, and are impatient in matters of strategy. They disdain weapons, for they love the feeling of tearing opponents apart with their claws and teeth. Their favored class is cleric.

Arcane Resistances (Su) Gain a bonus equal to Charisma modifier on saving throws against spells and spell-like effects.
Dark Companion (Ex) You conjure an illusory panther from the darkness of night to be your companion. Any enemy adjacent to your dark companion takes a -2 penalty to saving throws and AC. Your companion's speed equals yours, acts during your turn, and it follows your mental commands perfectly. Since it has no real substance, it cannot attack or otherwise affect creatures or objects. To gain this class feature, the hexblade has given up the ability to summon a familiar.
Evasion (Ex) If the hexblade is exposed to any effect that normally allows him to attempt a Reflex saving throw for half damage, he takes no damage with a successful saving throw.
Once per day, as a free action, a hexblade can unleash a curse upon a foe. The target takes a -2 penalty on attacks, saving throws, ability checks, skill checks, and weapon damage rolls for 1 hour. A successful Will save (DC 16) negates the effect. The target must be visible to the hexblade and within 60 feet. Any foe who resist the effect cannot be affected again by the same curse for 24 hours.
Hexblade's Curse (Ex) Once per day, as a free action, a hexblade can unleash a curse upon a foe. The target takes a -2 penalty on attacks, saving throws, ability checks, skill checks, and weapon damage rolls for 1 hour. A successful Will save (DC 16) negates the effect. The target must be visible to the hexblade and within 60 feet. Any foe who resist the effect cannot be affected again by the same curse for 24 hours.
Mettle (Ex) If the hexblade is exposed to any effect that normally allows him to attempt a Fortitude or Will saving throw to negate or for half damage, he takes no damage with a successful saving throw.
Sneak Attack (Ex) He does an extra 1d6 points of damage on any successful attack against flat-footed or flanked targets, or against a target that has been denied its Dexterity bonus for any reason. This applies to ranged attacks against targets up to 30 ft. away.
Trapfinding (Ex) You can find, disarm, or bypass traps with a DC of 20 or higher. You can use the Search skill to find, and the Disable Device skill to disarm, magical traps (DC 25 + the level of the spell used to create it). If your Disable Device result exceeds the trap’s DC by 10 or more, you discover how to bypass the trap without triggering or disarming it
