Monsters/Racial Templates: Sidhe and the Others

Monsters/Racial Templates: Sidhe and the Others

Dominions has several "elven" races based on the Irish folklore. Fir Bolg are only slightly elvish. Sidhe are elvish. Tuatha are even more elvish. There's also Nemedians who are identical to the tuatha in terms of mechanics, and Partholonians who do not need a racial templates, because there's only one left. I've also included the sidhe from D&D. I know that there's firbolgs in D&D too, but they are spelled differently, so I will include them in a separate post. And they are giants, not elves.

    Spear (14): thrust 1d+1 impaling, Reach 1.
    Glamour: A sidhe can create illusory doubles of him. This reaches to a two-yard radius around the sidhe. With care, he can include a few friends as well. Subtract 4 from any attempts to see anything in this area using vision; there is no resistance roll. The boundaries of the area, however, are detected at +4. Even if someone does manage to see the sidhe, subtract 4 from any attack roll against him that relies on vision to hit. The sidhe himself can see perfectly while using this ability. He activates this ability by taking a Concentrate maneuver. Each activation lasts for 1 minute. However, if the sidhe is attacked and successfully hit (the hit does not have to deal injury), this ability turns off.

    Traits: Extended Lifespan 1; Magic Resistance 2 (Improved); Night Vision 5; Supernatural Dislike (HT; Iron); Voice; Vulnerability (Iron, x3).
    Skills: Shield-14; Spear-14; Stealth-14.
    Creature Type: Fey.
    Gear: Spear (4 lbs.); Medium Light Shield (DB 2; 7 lbs.; DR 2; HP 16; Cover DR 6); Light Scale Armor (torso; 16 lbs.; DR 3).
