Selfich (3.5e Template)

Selfich
Self Telekineticists who have chosen to embrace the powers of abandoning a physically logical existence.]]

A Selfich is generally a thin humanoid skeleton or mannequin made of bone, crystal, wood, adamantine. or plastic, although the body shape depends on the creature's original body shape. The eyes glow, as one might expect of a lich-imitator.

Creating a Selfich
The Selfich template can be applied to any Self Telekineticist who is currently a living creature. Applying this template requires that they be dissolved in a vat of boiling acid placed on a pentagram with the skeleton or mannequin they wish to inhabit suspended above them. They must succeed on ten consecutive DC 25 autohypnosis checks to continue meditating in this rather painful situation.

The skeleton or mannequin must be of the same basic shape and size as the creature.

Although Selfich change type when they change to their new body, saves and attack bonus are not recalculated, and Hit Dice only change if they lose their Constitution score.

While in their bodiless state, they cannot do anything other than observe (as through scrying, with all senses) things within 30 feet of places where their names have been spoken in the past hour.



Creatures with fewer HD than the Bone Selfich's Self Telekineticist level in a 60-foot radius who look at the Bone Selfich must make a Will save (DC 10 + Half Character Level + Charisma modifier) or be affected as by a fear spell cast by a Sorcerer of the Bone Selfich's Self Telekineticist level.

This does 5 points of damage to the Selfich, and 1d10 points of damage per Self Telekineticist level to everything in a Medium cone (scales with Self Telekineticist level), with half damage on a successful Reflex save.

This damage heals the Bone Selfich.



They also ignore hardness values less than 20 with their unarmed and natural attacks, and penetrate Adamantine damage reduction.



This damage heals the Wood Selfich.

Creatures with fewer HD than the Wood Selfich's Self Telekineticist level in a 60-foot radius who look at the Wood Selfich must make a Will save (DC 10 + Half Character Level + Charisma modifier) or be affected as by a sleep spell (without the HD limit, obviously) cast by a Sorcerer of the Wood Selfich's Self Telekineticist level.

Plastic Selfich can reattach missing body parts (including head) as a standard action, or regrow missing body parts with 1 minute of submersion in molten plastic. Plastic Selfich regenerate 1 hit point per round per Self Telekineticist level.





This costs a number of bio-energy points equal to the CR of the creature they are attempting to imitate, or only 1 point when returning to their normal form.
