Monster: Ethereal Filcher

Monster: Ethereal Filcher

This is a weird monster that isn't very good in combat, but is very adept at stealing things. At first I wanted to give him No Legs (Bounces), but then decided to give him Cannot Kick and One Leg as a feature, because that will still let others target the leg and cripple it.

    Punch (12): thrust 1d-3 crushing, Reach C.
    Detect Magic (12): This innate ability lets the ethereal filcher determine whether the subject (person, object, or area) is under the effects of magic. Roll against the ethereal filcher’s Per minus range penalties (p. B550) to the subject, which the creature must be able to see or touch. If the ethereal filcher is familiar with the spells in question, this will reveal them. Otherwise, use the margin of success to determine how much information to give the creature.
    Ethereal Jaunt (14): The ethereal filcher can slip into the Ethereal Plane from the Material Plane and the other way around as per Jumper (p. B64). After using this ability, the filcher does not have to make Body Sense rolls.
