Past puberty, a half-fey is easily differentiated from their human brethren, as males have very hairy legs that bend backwards at the knee, and females have bright green hair (that in some cases changes with the seasons to red and then white, before returning to green). Other humans do not necessarily reject half-fey, though they do look on them with awe or suspicion most of the time.

Combat

Half-fey commoners will usually try to talk their way out of a fight.

Immunities (Ex): Half-fey are immune to magical charm spells and effects.

Recondite Pawns

Flavor Text (Type changes to Outsider)

Special Attacks: A fiendish creature retains all the special attacks of the base creature and also gains the following:

Coital Energy Drain: By engaging in an act of passion with their target, a recondite pawn may inflict a negative level.

Domination (Su): A recondite pawn can gain a creature’s trust just by looking onto his or her eyes. This is similar to a gaze attack, except that the recondite pawn must take a standard action, and those merely looking at it are not affected. Anyone the recondite targets must succeed at a Will save (DC 10 + half the recondite pawns HD + their Cha modifier) or become Friendly towards them. This ability has a range of 30 feet.

Coital Charm (Su): By engaging in an act of passion with their target, a recondite pawn may affect their target as though by a Charm Monster spell cast by a 1st level Sorcerer.

Variable Anatomy (Su): At will as a standard action, a recondite pawn may alter their gender, appearance, or sexual physiology or endowment as by Shapechange cast by a 17th level Sorcerer, but not their species. For example, a female recondite pawn could sprout a penis, or change form completely in to a male, or something in between. However, they always retain enough resemblance to their original form as to be recognizable.

Special Qualities: A Recondite Pawn retains all the special qualities of the base creatures and also gains the following:

Darkvision with a range of 60 feet.

Acid, sonic, and cold resistance (see the table below)

Damage Reduction (see the table below)

SR equal to double the creature’s HD (maximum 25)

Acid, Sonic,
