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.
Disobedience VulnerabilityThe first time each round an attempt to Command an Animal fails within 60 feet of a roru, the roru takes 4d6 mental damage (10d6 mental if the roru failed the attempt).
Predatory Aura (aura)30 feet. An animal or beast entering or starting its turn in the emanation must succeed at a DC 25 will save or become Frightened 1 (frightened 2 on a critical failure). Frightened animals within the emanation can't attack the roru. A creature that succeeds at a saving throw against predatory aura is immune for 24 hours.
Incite Ferocity (divine, mental)The roru focuses its corruption on an animal or beast it can see within 30 feet. The creature must succeed at a DC 25 will save or become Confused for 1d4 rounds. The confused creature can't attack the roru. A creature that succeeds at its saving throw is temporarily immune to Incite Ferocity for 24 hours.
Wear Pelt
(divine, manipulate)The roru dons the pelt of an adjacent dead animal, transforming into its lookalike. The roru becomes the same size and gains the same Speeds as the target animal. The roru loses its claw and jaws unarmed Strikes and gains the types of melee Strikes of the animal whose pelt it wears. The Strike deals damage equal to the roru's jaws Strike or, if the Strike has the agile trait, the roru's claw Strike. Either way, the damage type changes to match the new unarmed attack. While a roru wears a pelt, half of physical damage dealt to the roru is instead dealt to the pelt. A pelt has Hardness 5 and 25 HP. When a pelt reaches 0 HP, the roru is immediately expelled from the pelt and it is destroyed.

Rituals
Rorus, sometimes called hunter demons, are brutal fiends that arise from the souls of mortals who mutilated animal corpses. As demons, these individuals don animal pelts, then infiltrate packs or herds to corrupt entire swaths of animals, turning their victims bloodthirsty and feral.
Traits
Something of uncommon rarity requires special training or comes from a particular culture or part of the world. Some character choices give access to uncommon options, and the GM can choose to allow access for anyone. Less is known about uncommon creatures than common creatures. They typically can't be summoned. The DC of Recall Knowledge checks related to these creature is increased by 2.
DemonA family of fiends, demons hail from or trace their origins to the Outer Rifts. Most are irredeemably unholy and have darkvision and weaknesses to cold iron and holy.
FiendCreatures that hail from or have a strong connection to the unholy planes are called fiends. Fiends can survive the basic environmental effects of planes in the Outer Sphere.
UnholyEffects with the unholy trait are tied to powerful magical forces of cruelty and sin. They often have stronger effects on holy creatures. Creatures with this trait are strongly devoted to unholy causes, and often have weakness to holy. If a creature with weakness to unholy uses an unholy item or effect, it takes damage from its weakness.
