Babau

(Gerater Tanari'ri; PSMC1)

The basic Babau template costs 724 points and consists of: Tanar'ri [252], ST +6 [70], DX +3 [30], IQ +3 [30], HT +3 [30], PD 3 [75], DR 5 [15], DR +12 (vs. nonmagical and non-silver weapons) [24], Nonrestrictive magic resistance/4 [20], Stealth at DX+1 [4], Corrosive Venom/1 [15], Injury Tolerance (no cutting/impaling bonus) [30], Summon Tanar'ri (1-6 Cambions or 1 Babau, 9-) [40], Polymorphing [50], Monstrous Apperanace [-25], Knack: Dispel Magic [15], Knack: Panic [15], Kanck: Levitation [16], Knack: Flight [50], Knack: Heat[8].

A Babau's injury tolerance comes from the sickly red fluid they excrete; this is also what gives them their corrosive venom. It will tend to do 1d damage to any weapon which hits it. Magic weapons have a DR equal to the sum of their effective Accuracy and Puissance, as appropriate.

If a given Babau is a Umana mage, he uses his mana pool instead of his fatigue to power his knacks. Babaus which are not Umana mages tend to have several levels of Extra Fatigue.
