Monster: Air Mephit

Monster: Air Mephit

I've always liked the mephits. I've already converted the water mephit a long time ago, so let's tackle the rest.

Blunt Claws (13): thrust 1d-2 crushing (KYOS: 1d-5 crushing), Reach C.

Breath Weapon (13): A 10-yard jet of dust and grit erupts from the mephit’s mouth. It uses Innate Attack (Breath) to hit. Don’t apply range penalties; treat this as a long melee weapon rather than a ranged attack. It does 1d cutting damage, and has a 1/2D range of 5 yards. This ability costs 1 FP to use.

Vapor Blur: Once per hour, an air mephit can surround himself with vapor. This reaches to a two-yard radius around the mephit. With care, it can include a few friends as well. Subtract 4 from any attempts to see the mephit using normal vision, Infravision, or Ladar; there is no resistance roll. Even if someone does manage to see the mephit, subtract 4 from any attack roll against him that relies on vision to hit. The mephit itself can see perfectly while using this ability. The mephit activates this ability by taking a Concentrate maneuver. Each activation lasts for 1 minute.
