While poisoned in this way, the target can’t regain hit points, and it takes 21 (6d6) poison damage at the start of each of its turns. The poisoned target can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

Combat

Furcas rarely allows matters to deteriorate into personal fisticuffs. With his Diplomacy skill, he can easily turn hostile creatures into friendly ones, and indifferent ones into fanatics. If attacked alone, Furcas will usually greater teleport or plane shift away, although he will make note of the mortals who dared to assault his person. However, Furcas is almost always accompanied with a multitude of bodyguards, followers, cultists and other allies. Furcas is often defended to the death by his allies.

When Furcas does deign to fight, he will typically summon a pair of pit fiends before casting a mass hold monster. He will then follow up with blasphemy if foes are close, or begin covering the field with corrupt fireballs. In combat, he uses his greater teleport ability to constantly change his position before launching his spell-like assault. Only when sorely pressed will Furcas engage in melee.

Alternate Form (Su): Furcas may take the form of any humanoid from Small to Large size as a standard action.

Blood Oath (Su): Furcas’ blood oath ritual has a Will save DC of 31 to resist the initial Enthrall effect, and a Will save DC 36 to resist the bond itself. Furcas may prepare a room for the ritual within 9 hours, and the ritual itself takes eighty-one minutes plus nine minutes per participant.

Constrict (Ex): Furcas deals 2d8 + 28 points of damage with a successful grapple check.

Disease (Su): A creature struck by Furcas’ bite attack must succeed at a DC 38 Fortitude save or be infected with a vile disease called devil chills (incubation period 1d4 days, damage 1d4 points of Strength).

Fear Aura (Su): Furcas can radiate a 20-foot-radius fear aura as a free action. Creatures in the area must succeed on a DC 40 Will save or be affected as though by a fear spell (caster level 37 th ). A creature that successfully saves cannot be affected again by his aura for 24 hours. Other devils are immune to the aura.

Fiend’s Favor (Su): Nine times per day, Furcas may grant a touched creature a +9 bonus to one of the creature’s ability scores. This bonus stacks with any other bonuses the creature may have and lasts for one day. When the effect expires, the creature takes a -9 penalty to the same ability score for the next day. (This cannot reduce a creature’s ability score to below 1). Another application of Furcas’ favor negates the penalty and restores the bonus.

Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, Furcas must hit a Medium or smaller opponent with his tail slap attack. If he gets a hold, he can constrict.

Kill Cultist (Su): As a standard action, Furcas may kill any creature who has sworn a blood oath to him. Distance is not a factor, but he must be on the same plane. A Fortitude save DC 31 is required to avoid death. Success causes the creature to take 3d6+9 points of damage. This is a death effect.

Locate Cultist (Su): Furcas can sense the location of any creature that has sworn a blood oath to him, as with the spell locate creature.

Mind Shielding (Su): Furcas is immune to detect thoughts, discern lies, and any attempt to magically discern his alignment.

Poison (Ex): Injury; Fortitude DC 38; initial damage 1d8 Constitution, secondary damage death.

Regeneration (Ex): Furcas takes normal damage from good-aligned silvered weapons, and from spells or effects with the good descriptor.

Scry on Cultist (Sp): Furcas can scry on any creature that has sworn him a blood oath, as long as they are on the same plane as he. He can do this once per day per cultist.

Soul Bargain (Su): Furcas may establish binding agreements with willing mortals for their souls. Upon their death, the mortal’s soul is immediately transferred into a gem prepared at the time of the bargain.

Spell-Like Abilities (Sp): At will ·animate dead, blasphemy, charm monster, create undead, desecrate, detect good, detect magic, greater dispel magic, greater invisibility, greater teleport(self plus 50 pounds only), magic circle against good, major image, mass hold monster, power word stun, produce flame, polymorph, pyrotechnics, suggestion, unholy aura, unhallow, wall of fire;

• 3/day – major creation, meteor swarm and symbol of pain;
• 1/day – geas, mark of justice, wish (others only),
• 1/month – wish.

Caster level 37 th ; DC 22 + spell level.

Spells: Furcas may cast a small number of divine spells. He may prepare spells from the fiend of blasphemy class list, in addition to all spells from the Destruction, Domination, Evil, Knowledge, Law and Trickery domains.

He possesses the domain powers of Knowledge and Trickery.

Spells per day (1-9th): 7/7/6/5/5/4/4/3/2; caster level 36th ; DC 21+ spell level. Example spells prepared:

• 1st-Bane, command, detect chaos, detect secret doors, Doom, protection from chaos, Shield of Faith;
• 2nd-darkness, detect thoughts , Enthrall, Hold Person, Shatter, Silence, undetectable alignment;
• 3rd-Bestow Curse, clairaudience/clairvoyance, Contagion, deeper darkness, Magic Circle Against Chaos, nondetection;
• 4th-death ward, Discern Lies, Divination, sending, tongues;
• 5th-false vision, greater command, mass inflict light wounds, Slay Living, True Seeing;

• 7th-Dictum, disintegrate, Legend Lore, screen;
• 8th-Discern Location, Earthquake, polymorph any object;
• 9th-Implosion, time stop.

Sponsor Worshiper (Su): Furcas may sponsor clerics of up to 18 th level, in his name. These clerics may choose from any of Asmodeus‘ domains.

Summon Devils (Sp): Thrice per day, Furcas can automatically summon four lemures, osyluths, or hamatulas; or two erinyes, cornugons, Gelugons, or pit fiends.

Temptation (Su): Furcas can offer good-aligned creatures the opportunity to change their alignment to evil. This functions identically to the temptation function of the Atonement spell.

Transfer Spell-like Ability (Sp): Furcas can transfer the use of his spell-like abilities to those who have sworn him a blood oath. The caster level and DC remain unchanged. If he transfers the usage of an at will spell-like ability, his own usage of that ability is reduced to 9/day. Otherwise, he may transfer as many uses of a spell-like ability as he chooses, to as many cultists as he chooses. He may revoke this honour from any cultist at any time as a free action.

Torture Cultist (Su): As a standard action, Furcas may inflict pain on any creature who has sworn him a blood oath. Distance is not a factor, but he must be on the same plane. The affected creature takes a -9 penalty on attack rolls, skill checks, and ability checks for 9 rounds. A successful Fortitude save (DC 31) reduces the penalty to -3.

Possessions: Furcas is pierced by multiple rings known as the Infinity Rings through the flesh of his shoulders. Each one of them carries powerful enchantments, and as a result, Furcas can make no use of normal wondrous items that require a body slot without first deactivating a ring. While others can use these rings, inserting the rings deal 5d6 points of damage each and requires a Fortitude save (DC 40) against death. No magical protection may be used to heal the wounds, bolster the Fortitude save, or avoid death else the rings fail to function. All eight rings must be inserted for any one to function.

• Adamantine: Weapons striking Furcas must make a Fortitude save (DC 28) or shatter.
• Brass: 9/day, Furcas may call an efreet with up to 18 class levels to serve him for an hour.
• Bronze: Furcas receives a +9 deflection bonus to his armor class.
• Copper: Dealing damage to Furcas releases a mindfog (DC 28) in the area, within a 20 foot radius. Creatures who need to breathe must hold their breath or make Fortitude saves against suffocation.
• Golden: Creatures targeted by any of Furcas’ special attacks must roll two saves. If either fails, the saving throw is considered a failure.
• Iron: Furcas’ powers as a fiend of blasphemy and a fiend of corruption are enhanced to the levels described above.
• Lead: Those who penetrate Furcas’ Spell Resistance are subjected to his fear aura, disease, or poison (determined randomly) and must save against it.
• Silver: Furcas is allowed a saving throw every round that he is under magical charm or compulsion.

Cohort: Furcas is often attended by his chief aide and pupil, a 6 th circle lieutenant named Alasta the Keen (10 HD erinyes, fiend of blasphemy 6/fiend of corruption 6/ fiend of possession 6/mindbender 10). Alasta serves as the Chief Administrator the Denomination’s training facility, the City of Man, in Minauros.
