Constant Spells

A constant spell affects the monster without the monster needing to cast it, and its duration is unlimited. If a constant spell gets counteracted, the monster can reactivate it by spending the normal spellcasting actions the spell requires.

Erosion Aura (aura, primal)

120 feet. The guthallath erodes away the physical integrity of all around it. Creatures and objects in the emanation other than the guthallath have their hardness and resistances reduced by 10. At the start of its turn, a creature in the erosion aura's area takes 6d6 bludgeoning damage (DC 39 fortitude).

Immunity to Magic

The guthallath is immune to spells of lower than 7th level and the activated effects of magic items of lower than 14th level.

Numerian Construct

Any encounters with adamantine golems, guthallaths, or radiant wardens in Numeria are with ancient robotic versions of these creatures. In encounters with them, describe them as having more technological aspects. The guthallath's erosion aura could be caused by clouds of deconstructor nanites and its annihilation beams manifest as plasma blasts. The adamantine golem might have tank treads instead of legs and its vent ability might manifest as a spray of dozens of laser beams in a cone. And the radiant warden's radiant beams and blast serve as rippling attacks of focused graviton beams.

All of these constructs have weakness 15 to critical hits and electricity, but their other statistics do not change. If you'd rather not introduce Numeria's themes of super-science and strange technology, you can either present these constructs as standard versions, or re-roll your encounter to get a more appropriate result for your game.

Annihilation Beams Two Actions

A guthallath releases two beams of destruction from its eyes. Each beam is a 120-foot line. Everything in either line takes the effect of a hit from a 10th-rank Disintegrate spell (DC 41 fortitude). There is no additional effect on creatures in any area where the beams overlap.

The guthallath can't use this ability again for 1d4 rounds.

Deadly Throw One Action

Requirements The guthallath has a creature Grabbed.


Effect The guthallath throws the creature into the air, 100 feet high and 50 feet away. If the flung creature lands on another creature, the creature it lands on takes the same amount of bludgeoning damage. The creature being landed on can attempt a DC 41 reflex save.

Powerful Blows

If a guthallath hits with an attack and rolls a natural 19 on the d20 roll, the attack is a critical hit. This has no effect if the 19 would be a failure.

Trample Three Actions

Huge or smaller, foot, DC 45 reflex


The monster Strides up to double its Speed and can move through the spaces of creatures of the listed size, Trampling each creature whose space it enters. The monster can attempt to Trample the same creature only once in a single use of Trample. The monster deals the damage of the listed Strike, but trampled creatures can attempt a basic Reflex save at the listed DC (no damage on a critical success, half damage on a success, double damage on a critical failure).

Improved Grab Free Action

Trigger The monster's last action was a successful Strike that lists Improved Grab in its damage entry, or the monster has a creature Grabbed or Restrained


Effect If used after a Strike, the monster attempts to [/act grapple] the creature using the body part it attacked with as a free action. This attempt neither applies nor counts toward the creature's multiple attack penalty.

The monster can instead use Improved Grab as an action and choose one creature it's grabbing or restraining with an appendage that has Improved Grab to automatically extend that condition to the end of the monster's next turn.

Improved Knockdown Free Action

Trigger The monster's last action was a successful Strike that lists Improved Knockdown in its damage entry


Effect The monster attempts to [/act trip] the creature as a free action. This attempt neither applies nor counts toward the monster's multiple attack penalty.

Improved Push 20 feet Free Action

Trigger The monster's last action was a successful Strike that lists Improved Push in its damage entry


Effect The monster attempts to [/act shove] the creature. This attempt neither applies nor counts toward the monster's multiple attack penalty. If Improved Push lists a distance, change the distance the creature is pushed on a success to that distance.


Primal Innate Spells (DC 37, +29 to hit)

3rd Level: Haste (Constant)
6th Level: True Seeing (Constant)


A guthallath is an enormous construct created long ago by some unknown empire, probably as a war machine. Nearly 100 feet tall, this massive stone statue typically resembles a stalwart warrior wearing only a loincloth and skullcap. Few have seen the entire body of a guthallath, though; most of the time such a relic is buried up to its neck, covered in moss and stranded in some forgotten place. Yet, every so often, one of these harbingers of destruction reactivates in response to some unknown stimulus or rallying call, and when this happens, woe be unto any who stand in its way.

While the guthallath's ancient enemies are gone, it is an engine of pure destruction, designed to rampage for weeks or even months. While not intelligent enough to enjoy or regret its acts, the guthallath cannot be reasoned with-it is unaffected by most magic, and is unpredictable in how it selects its targets (and creatures it spares).


Traits

Rare

This rarity indicates that a rules element is very difficult to find in the game world. A rare feat, spell, item or the like is available to players only if the GM decides to include it in the game, typically through discovery during play. Creatures with this trait are rare. They typically can't be summoned. The DC of Recall Knowledge checks related to these creatures is increased by 5.

Construct

A construct is an artificial creature empowered by a force other than vitality or void. Constructs are often mindless; they are immune to bleed, death effects, disease, healing, nonlethal attacks, poison, spirit, vitality, void, and the doomed, drained, fatigued, paralyzed, sickened, and unconscious conditions; and they may have Hardness based on the materials used to construct their bodies. Constructs are not living creatures, nor are they undead. When reduced to 0 Hit Points, a construct creature is destroyed.
