View source for Spelling Faerie (3.5e Monster)

=== Combat ===

A spelling faerie doesn't like combat, and barely understands it.  When pressed into a fight it relies on its aura of misspell to disrupt casters, and its semi-incorporeal nature and DR to slow down fighting types long enough to run away.  Its ethereal pen makes a crude and absurdly tiny lance in a pinch, but as they say the pen is mightier than the sword.  Supposedly.  Their magic pen vanishes with them when they die.

'''Aura of Misspell {{Su}}:'''  When threatened, a spelling faerie can release its stockpile of erroneous words.  All creatures in 30 feet must make a [[Will]] save or fall under ''[[Misspell (3.5e Spell)|misspell]]'' for as long as they remain in the area, and 1d4 rounds after they leave.  The save DC is 13, and the save is [[Charisma]] based.

'''Autocorrect {{Su}}:'''  When encountering misspelled text, a spelling faerie can alter the word as a standard action with a range of touch, reformatting the surrounding text on all subsequent pages as needed.  Against magical text they must make an opposed caster level check to succeed, and they have a +3 on their check (their HD with a +2 racial bonus).

'''Comprehend Languages {{Su}}:'''  A spelling faerie is always under the effect of ''[[SRD:Comprehend Languages|comprehend languages]]''.

'''Scan Text {{Su}}:'''  A spelling faerie can read unnaturally fast.  They can read the entire contents of a book as a 1 round action, no matter how long it is.

'''Semi-Incorporeal {{Ex}}:'''  A spelling faerie can fade in and out of reality.  In combat, they have a constant 20% miss chance which is not bypassed by ''[[SRD:True Seeing|true seeing]]'', as it is closer to ''[[SRD:Blink|blink]]'' in how it works.  Out of combat, they can phase through solid matter at half speed, up to 5 feet deep.  They mostly use this to enter inside books and access all the pages at once for the purpose of using autocorrect.  Because they control how much of themselves is actually there, they can see up to 5 feet of the objects they are melded with.

'''Sense Typos {{Su}}:'''  A spelling faerie can make a Sense Motive check, DC 15, against any book or text they can see.  Without even reading it, a successful check tells them if there are spelling errors within or not.
