Alternate Form (Su): Noctulos can assume the shape of<br />
a bat, dire bat, wolf or dire wolf as a standard action; see<br />
the MM for more details.<br />
Blood Drain (Ex): Grapple check required; if foe is<br />
pinned, Noctulos deals 1d4 points of Constitution<br />
drain each round the pin is maintained and gains five<br />
temporary hit points with each such successful attack.<br />
Children of the Night (Su): As a standard action,<br />
Noctulos can summon 1d6+1 rat swarms, 1d4+1 bat<br />
swarms or a pack of 3d6 wolves. <strong>The</strong>se creatures arrive<br />
in 2d6 rounds and serve him for up to one hour.<br />
Damage Reduction (Su): Noctulos has damage reduction<br />
10/silver and magic. His natural weapons are treated as<br />
magic weapons for the purpose of overcoming damage<br />
reduction.<br />
Dominate (Su): This is a gaze<br />
attack and requires a standard<br />
action. <strong>The</strong> target must succeed<br />
on a Will saving throw (DC 26)<br />
or fall instantly under Noctulos’s<br />
influence as though by a dominate<br />
person spell (caster level 12 th ).<br />
<strong>The</strong> ability has a range of 30 feet.<br />
<strong>The</strong> save DC is Charisma-based.<br />
Create Spawn (Su): Creatures<br />
slain by energy drain rise as<br />
vampire spawn; see the MM.<br />
Energy Drain (Su): Living<br />
creatures hit by Noctulos’ slam or<br />
snake attacks gain two negative<br />
levels. For each negative level<br />
bestowed, Noctulos gains five<br />
temporary hit points. He can use<br />
this ability once per round.<br />
Fast Healing (Ex): Noctulos heals<br />
five points of damage each round<br />
so long as he has at least one hit<br />
point. If reduced to zero hit points in combat he assumes<br />
gaseous form and attempts to escape to his throne. He<br />
must reach his throne (which he sleeps in instead of a<br />
coffin) within two hours or be utterly destroyed. Any<br />
additional damage dealt to Noctulos while he is in<br />
gaseous form has no effect. Once at rest in his throne,<br />
Noctulos is helpless. He regains one hit point after one<br />
hour, then is no longer helpless and resumes healing at<br />
the rate of five hit points per round.<br />
Gaseous Form (Su): As a standard action, Noctulos can<br />
assume gaseous form at will as the spell (caster level<br />
5 th ), but it can remain gaseous indefinitely and has a fly<br />
speed of 20 feet with perfect manoeuvrability.<br />
Petrifying Gaze (Su): Turn to stone permanently, 30<br />
feet, Fortitude DC 26 negates. <strong>The</strong> saving throw DC is<br />
Charisma-based.<br />
Poison (Ex): Injury, Fortitude DC 18, initial damage<br />
1d6 Strength, secondary damage 2d6 Strength.<br />
Spider Climb (Ex): Noctulos can climb sheer surfaces<br />
as though with a spider climb spell.<br />
