SLAADTHROUGH A HAZE OF MADNESS, slaads see a world withtoo much order and too many constraints. Their disruptiveattacks create disorder, but rarely on a largescale; their chaotic nature deters them from bandinginto effective armies.FLUX SLAADMUTABLE FLUX SLAADS alter their defenses and vulnerabilitiesin response to enemy attacks.FLUX SLAAD TACTICSA flux slaad goes into flux rage early in a fight, throwingitself into the midst of its enemies and trying toslash down as many as possible. It then uses claw slashand shifts using piercing reaction to move into flankingposition or out of harm's way.itFlux SlaadMedium elemental humanoidInitiative +8HP 98; Bloodied 49AC 23; Fortitude 23, Reflex 21, Will 21Level 9 SkirmisherXP400Senses Perception +10; low-light visionResist 5 variable (see also slaad vulnerability shift); Vulnerable 10variable (see also slaad vulnerabilitySpeed 7, teleport 2© Claw Slash (standard; at-will)+14 vs. AC; 2d8 + 3 damage.shift)Flux Rage (standard; recharges when first bloodied)The flux slaad shifts 2 squares and makes one claw slash attackagainst each creature it moves adjacent to during the shift.Piercing Reaction (immediate reaction, when the flux slaad takesdamage from an attack; at-will)The slaad shifts 1 square.Slaad Vulnerability ShiftA flux slaad starts the encounter with vulnerable 10 to oneof the following six damage types, randomly determined:1-cold, 2-fire, 3-lightning, 4-necrotic, 5-psychic, or6-thunder. It has resist 5 to the other five types. When theslaad takes damage of the type to which it's vulnerable, itsvulnerability changes to one of the other five damage types,randomly determined, and it gains resistance to the type it waspreviously vulnerable to.Alignment UnalignedLanguages Common, PrimordialStr 16 (+7) Dex 15 (+6) Wis 13 (+5)Con 18 (+8) Int 7 (+2) Cha 14 (+6)FLUX SLAAD LOREArcana DC 19: Flux slaads sometimes accidentallyslip through weak points between the planes;this commonly occurs near gatherings of bullywugs.The flux slaads often end up ruling tribes of bullywugs,which revere them as demon lords.Arcana DC 21: Flux slaads garner little respectfrom their more deadly kin. In addition to beingsmaller and weaker than most, they are incapable ofspawning. Many flux salads thus lord over what creaturesthey may, often showing surprising restraint intheir violent and unpredictable rages.SLAAD SPAWNSLAAD SPAWN ARE NOT SELF-AWARE.
