Acidic Blood Whenever the marquis cambion takes piercing or slashing damage, it deals 7 (2d6) acid damage to the attacker if they are within 5 ft.

Fiendish Blessing. The AC of the marquis cambion includes its Charisma bonus.

Magic Resistance. The marquis cambion has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.

Innate Spellcasting. The cambion’s spellcasting ability is Charisma (spell save DC 17). The cambion can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components:

• At will: alter self, command, darkness, detect magic
• 3/day: plane shift (self only), wrathful smite
• 1/day: staggering smite

ACTIONS
______________________________________________________________________________

Multiattack. The cambion makes three melee attacks, two with its weapon and one with its claw or uses Fire Ray twice.

Longsword. Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 9 (1d8 + 5) slashing damage plus 7 (2d6) fire damage.

Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 9 (1d8 + 5) slashing damage plus 7 (2d6) poison damage and the target must make a Constitution saving throw DC 17 or be poisoned for 1 round.

Fire Ray Ranged Spell Attack: +9 to hit, range 120 ft., one target. Hit: 21 (6d6) fire damage.

Fiendish Charm. One humanoid the cambion can see within 30 feet of it must succeed on a DC 17 Wisdom saving throw or be magically charmed for 1 day.

The charmed target obeys the cambion’s spoken commands. If the target suffers any harm from the cambion or another creature or receives a suicidal command from the cambion, the target can repeat the saving throw, ending the effect on itself on a success. If a target’s saving throw is successful, or if the effect ends for it, the creature is immune to the cambion’s Fiendish Charm for the next 24 hours.

SPECIAL ABILITIES

Sadistic Strike (Su)

Cambions excel at causing pain and anguish. Cambions always treat any weapons with which they attack (including natural weapons and spells with attack rolls) as if they had the Improved Critical feat for the weapons.

Sinfrenzy (Su)

Every cambion carries an excessive capacity for one of the seven classical sins, determined at the moment of the cambion’s birth and depending on the nature of his humanoid parent’s greatest sin. Once per day for a number of rounds equal to his Hit Dice, a cambion can embrace his sin and enter a frenzied state as a free action.

While a cambion is in this frenzy, his land speed increases by 10 feet and he gains a +1 bonus on Reflex saves and attack rolls. These bonuses do not stack with those granted by haste or similar effects, but if the cambion has at least 1 level in the class listed for his specific sin, the sinfrenzy grants an additional effect.

• Envy (cleric): Cambion clerics covet the gods’ power. When they are in a sinfrenzy, their channel energy effect increases by 1d6.
• Gluttony (alchemist): Cambion alchemists enjoy drinking extracts, potions, mutagens, and even poisons. When they are in a sinfrenzy, their bombs deal an additional die of damage.
• Greed (rogue): Cambion rogues are obsessed with gathering wealth and power. When they are in a sinfrenzy, cambion rogues deal an additional die of sneak attack damage.
• Lust (bard): Cambion bards seek to dominate and control others, turning them into slaves. When cambion bards are in a sinfrenzy, the bonuses granted by their inspire courage, inspire competence, inspire greatness, and inspire heroics abilities increase by 1. The save DCs of their bardic performances also increase by 1.
• Pride (wizard): Cambion wizards believe their magic is the greatest. When they are in a sinfrenzy, their spell save DCs increase by 1.
• Sloth (fighter): Cambion fighters bleed slowly. When entering a sinfrenzy, they gain 2 temporary hit points per Hit Die that disappear when the sinfrenzy ends.
• Wrath (ranger): Cambion rangers attack with savage hatred. When they are in a sinfrenzy, their favored enemy bonuses increase by 2.

ECOLOGY

Environment any (Abyss)
Organization solitary, pair, gang (3–7), or cult (8–13)
Treasure NPC gear (studded leather, masterwork scimitar, masterwork composite longbow [+2 Str] with 20 arrows, other treasure)

When an incubus procreates with a humanoid in the Abyss, and the mortal parent resides on that plane throughout the pregnancy, the gestating child absorbs enough Abyssal energy to be born not as a half-demon, but as a type of humanoid demon known as a cambion.

Cambions are true outsiders. The majority of cambions have red skin, horns on their heads, and cloven hooves for feet—the fiendish aspects of cambions’ appearance don’t range as widely as those of tieflings. A typical cambion stands 6 feet tall and weighs 190 pounds.
