View source for SRD:Androsphinx

===Combat===
In battle, an androsphinx rips apart enemies with its razor-sharp claws. It relies on its [[SRD:Natural Weapons|natural weapons]] in a fight, employing its [[SRD:Creature Spells and Powers#Spells|spells]] for defense or [[SRD:Heal|heal]]ing.

'''[[SRD:Rake|Rake]] ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''' Attack bonus +18 melee, damage 2d4+3.

'''Roar ([[SRD:Su|Su]]):''' Three times per day an androsphinx can loose a mighty roar. The first time it does this, all creatures within 500 feet must succeed on a [[SRD:DC|DC]] 19 [[SRD:Saving Throw|Will save]] or be affected as though by a ''[[SRD:Fear|fear]]'' spell for 2d6 rounds.

If the sphinx roars a second time during the same encounter, all creatures within 250 feet must succeed on a [[SRD:DC|DC]] 19 [[SRD:Saving Throw|Fortitude save]] or be [[SRD:Paralyzed|paralyzed]] for 1d4 rounds, and all those within 90 feet are [[SRD:Deafened|deafened]] for 2d6 rounds (no save). If it roars a third time during the same encounter, all those within 250 feet must succeed on a [[SRD:DC|DC]] 19 [[SRD:Saving Throw|Fortitude save]] or take 2d4 points of [[SRD:Strength|Strength]] damage for 2d4 rounds. In addition, any Medium or smaller creature within 90 feet must succeed on a [[SRD:DC|DC]] 19 [[SRD:Saving Throw|Fortitude save]] or be thrown to the ground and take 2d8 points of damage. The force of this roar is so great that it deals 50 points of damage to any stone or crystalline object within 90 feet. Magic items and held or carried items can avoid damage with a [[SRD:DC|DC]] 19 [[SRD:Saving Throw|Reflex save]]. Other androsphinxes are immune to these effects. The save [[SRD:DC|DCs]] are [[SRD:Charisma|Charisma]]-based.

'''[[SRD:Creature Spells and Powers#Spells|Spells]]:''' An androsphinx casts divine [[SRD:Creature Spells and Powers#Spells|spells]] as a 6th-level [[SRD:Cleric|cleric]] from the [[SRD:Cleric Spell List|cleric spell list]] and from the [[SRD:Good Domain|Good]], [[SRD:Healing Domain|Healing]], and [[SRD:Protection Domain|Protection]] domains.  

''Typical [[SRD:Cleric|Cleric]] [[SRD:Creature Spells and Powers#Spells|Spells]] Prepared'' (5/5/5/4; save [[SRD:DC|DC]] 13 + [[SRD:Spell Level|spell level]]): 0—''[[SRD:Cure Minor Wounds|cure minor wounds]], [[SRD:Detect Magic|detect magic]], [[SRD:Guidance|guidance]], [[SRD:Light|light]], [[SRD:Resistance|resistance]];'' 1st—''[[SRD:Divine Favor|divine favor]], [[SRD:Protection from Evil|protection from evil]]*, [[SRD:Shield of Faith|shield of faith]], [[SRD:Remove Fear|remove fear]], [[SRD:Summon Monster I|summon monster i]];'' 2nd—''[[SRD:Bull's Strength|bull’s strength]], [[SRD:Remove Paralysis|remove paralysis]], [[SRD:Resist Energy|resist energy]], [[SRD:Shield Other|shield other]]*, [[SRD:Summon Monster I|summon monster i]]I;'' 3rd—''[[SRD:Cure Serious Wounds|cure serious wounds]]*, [[SRD:Daylight|daylight]], [[SRD:Invisibility Purge|invisibility purge]], [[SRD:Searing Light|searing light]].''
