====Frightful Presence ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]])====

This special quality makes a creature’s very presence unsettling to foes. It takes effect automatically when the creature performs some sort of dramatic action (such as charging, attacking, or snarling). Opponents within range who witness the action may become [[SRD:Frightened|frightened]] or [[SRD:Shaken|shaken]]. Actions required to trigger the ability and the condition inflicted are given in the creature’s descriptive text. The range is usually 30 feet, and the duration is usually 5d6 rounds, but these are often modified by the specific ability description. This ability affects only opponents with an equal or lower [[SRD:Challenge Rating (Creature Statistic)|challenge rating]] or level than the creature has. An affected opponent can resist the effects with a successful [[SRD:Saving Throw|Will]] save ([[SRD:DC|DC]] 10 + 1/2 frightful creature’s CR + frightful creature’s [[SRD:Charisma|Cha]] modifier; the exact [[SRD:DC|DC]] should be given in the creature’s descriptive text, but all existing ones were not built to this specification). An opponent that succeeds on the [[SRD:Saving Throw|saving throw]] is immune to that same creature’s frightful presence for 24 hours.
