=Creating a Pseudonatural Creature=

“Pseudonatural” is a template that can be added to any corporeal creature (referred to hereafter as the base creature).  

'''Size and Type:''' The creature’s type changes to [[SRD:Outsider Type|outsider]] (extraplanar). Do not recalculate [[SRD:Base Attack Bonus|base attack bonus]], saves, or [[SRD:Skill Points|skill points]]. Size is unchanged.

'''[[SRD:Hit Dice|HD]]:''' A pseudonatural creature always has maximum [[SRD:Hit Points|hit points]].  

'''Speed:''' A pseudonatural creature’s speed doubles, for all movement types.  

'''[[SRD:AC|AC]]:''' Pseudonatural creatures gain a +35 [[SRD:Armor Class|natural armor]] bonus. If the creature already has an [[SRD:Armor Bonus|armor bonus]], use whichever is better.  

'''Attack/Full Attack:''' A pseudonatural creature substitutes tentacle [[SRD:Rake|rake]] attacks for its [[SRD:Melee Attack|melee attacks]] while in pseudonatural form. These tentacle attacks always use the creature’s best attack bonus. It also gains additional tentacle [[SRD:Rake|rake]] attacks (also at its best attack bonus) as noted on the table below.

'''Damage:''' Tentacle [[SRD:Rake|rake]]s from a pseudonatural creature deal Damage equal to 2d8 + [[SRD:Strength|Strength]] modifier.  

'''Special Ability:''' A pseudonatural creature retains all the special attacks of the base creature and also gains the following.  

'''''Constant Insight ([[SRD:Su|Su]]):''''' The creature makes all its attacks with a +15 insight bonus. The creature is not affected by the miss chance that applies to attacks against a concealed target.  

'''''[[SRD:Improved Grab|Improved Grab]] ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''''' If the creature hits an opponent smaller than it with a tentacle, it deals normal Damage and attempts to start a [[SRD:Grapple|grapple]] as a [[SRD:Free Actions|free action]] without provoking an [[SRD:Attacks of Opportunity|attack of opportunity]].  

'''''Rotting [[SRD:Constrict|Constrict]]ion ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''''' Once the creature has hold of an opponent, each successful [[SRD:Grapple|grapple check]] it makes during subsequent rounds permanently drains 2d4 points of [[SRD:Constitution|Consitution]]. At the same time, the creature regains 10 lost [[SRD:Hit Points|hit points]].  

'''Spell-Like ''' At will—''[[SRD:Blur|blur]], [[SRD:Dimension Door|dimension door]], [[SRD:Shield|shield]], [[SRD:Unhallow|unhallow]].'' [[SRD:Caster Level|Caster level]] 20th. The [[SRD:DC|DCs]] are [[SRD:Charisma|Charisma]]-based.

'''Special Qualities:''' A pseudonatural creature retains all the special qualities of the base creature and also gains the following.  

* Electricity and acid resistance of a varying amount related to its [[SRD:Hit Dice|Hit Dice]] (see the table below). If the creature already possesses such resistance, use whichever is better.  

* [[SRD:Damage Reduction|Damage reduction]] of a varying amount related to its [[SRD:Hit Dice|Hit Dice]] (see the table below). If the creature already possesses [[SRD:Damage Reduction|Damage reduction]], use whichever is better.  

* [[SRD:Spell Resistance|Spell resistance]] equal to the creature’s [[SRD:Hit Dice|HD]] x5. If the creature already possesses [[SRD:Spell Resistance and Spell Immunity#Spell Resistance (Ex)|spell resistance]], use whichever is higher.

* One extra tentacle [[SRD:Rake|rake]] attack (the creature can use another of its many tentacles to attack at no penalty while in pseudonatural form) for each 4 [[SRD:Hit Dice|HD]] the creature has.  

* A pseudonatural creature’s [[SRD:Natural Weapons|natural weapons]] are treated as epic for the purpose of overcoming [[SRD:Damage Reduction|damage reduction]].

If the creature already has one or more of these special qualities, use the better value.  

'''''[[SRD:Alternate Form|Alternate Form]] ([[SRD:Su|Su]]):''''' At will, a pseudonatural creature can take the form of a grotesque, tentacled mass (or another appropriately gruesome form), but all its abilities remain unchanged despite the alien appearance. Changing shape is a [[SRD:Standard Actions|standard action]]. Other creatures receive a –1 morale penalty on their [[SRD:Attack Roll|attack rolls]] against pseudonatural creatures in this [[SRD:Alternate Form|alternate form]].
