Typhlotic Magistrate




Spindly and androgenous, the towering celestial wears a pure-white blindfold despite the fact its head is nothing more than a free-floating golden mask cast with a disapproving frown. One massive set of golden wings sprouts from the magistrate's sharp shoulders with two smaller sets of silver fluttering above and below. The outsider is adorned in a gossamer robe in which distant, dying stars twinkle. Its malnourished body can easily be seen through the translucent fabric whenever the light hits it right. Manacles with broken chains adorn each of the judge's ankles.


Angelic Arbiter. Justice is blind and so is the typhlotic magistrate. The celestial is without both compassion and corruption. Its only duty is to consider allegations brought before it and passing judgement in accordance with a cosmic sense of justice instead of vengeance. However, this cosmic sense of justice is not always in accordance to mortal morality. At times, the typhlotic magistrate's dictates can seem unduly harsh, non-sensical, or a mere slap on the wrist. The codices of celestial law were written when time began, it is not the magistrate's job to interpret or update them. One thing the angel cannot abide, however, is lies and will swiftly punish any who speak an untruth in its presence.

Cuirassier Mimic

Hand-crafted by an aberrant soul, the first mimic of this breed was given to the creature's loyal bodyguard to provide both protection... and a second bodyguard as it were. The monstrosity performed exceptionally well, especially when heroes slew the fellow wearing it and the mimic kept the bottom fighting. Thus the cuirassier mimic was passed to the next right-hand-mook, and so on as its bearers passed. This lead to a legend of an immortal servant when in truth, it was just the armor all along. Eventually, its creator was killed, the mimic 'looted', and its spore spread across the realm.

Entry Mimic

This particular strain of mimics was carefully cultivated into being by a drow matron sick of uninvited guests - both of the adventurer and political rival variety. Resistant to pesky bypassing magic and capable of alerting a building's occupants (and other mimics) of interlopers, entry mimics became all the rage... well, until they started eating honored guests and the occasional house pet. The matron quickly lost favor and stepped through one door never to return... as it were.

Soot Foot

Prior to Death claiming the Kingdom, the zombie dubbed Soot Foot was just another of the faceless masses. While he was a chimney sweep of notable skill, no one noted the ash-smeared lad. Surely, he could have made some money it a sideshow with his double-jointed talents but he preferred the quiet life. He perished in the middle of a job, his already pliant joints tearing into compound fractures as he scrambled to find the flesh of the living. The toxins soaked into his rotting skin give him a unique virality that leaves fiery undead in his weak and he never leaves the cinder of his chimney lairs far behind. -Records of the Charnel House Soot Foot Medium undead (zombie), chaotic evil Armor Class 8 Hit Points 45 (6d8 + 18) Speed 20ft Climb 20ft Str 16 Dex 6 Con 16 Int 3 Wis 8 Cha 5 Skills Stealth +2 Damage Resistances fire Condition Immunities exhaustion, poisoned
