Tymher-haid are also known as 'ghost swarms.' Consisting of remnants of the souls of multiple people, they appear as multi-colored clouds of sparks. While the individual ghosts can sometimes be heard whispering to one another, they do not appear to be able to communicate with the living.

Distraction (Ex): Any living creature that begins its turn with a swarm in its space must succeed on a DC 11 Fortitude save or be nauseated for 1 round. The save DC is Wisdom-based (unlike living swarms).

Fiery Sting (Su): The Tymher-haid's swarm attack does 1d6 negative energy damage and 1d6 Fire damage.

Vulnerabilities: Tymher-haids have a -2 Racial Penalty on Saves against spells with the Water descriptor. Contact with the water does 1d6 Untyped damage per round to them. Being caught in heavy snow or rain causes 2d6 damage per round (as does being submerged in water).

Turn Resistance (Ex): If a Turn attempt is successful against a Tymher-haid, it takes 2d6 untyped damage instead of the normal effects.

Skills: Ghost swarms have a +8 racial bonus on Listen, Search, and Spot checks. Otherwise same as the base creature.

Combat: Ghost swarms react like any other swarm, enveloping victims.

"So can you control this thing?"

"Jebus, we'd better hope so."

Sacaanti are created whe a particularly odd caster summons both an Imp and a Quasit, and casts Wish to merge the two. It rather resembles an Imp without horns and tail. They're usually found as errand boys for powerful Zhentarim Wizards.

Poison (Su): Bite, Injury, DC 14 Constitution Save (Save DC is Constitution based with a +2 Racial Bonus), Initial damage is 1d6 Con, and Secondary damage is 2d4 Con.

Spells: A Sacaanti can cast spells as a Sorcerer equal to it's Hit Dice. If it takes Levels in Sorcerer, those Levels stack with it's Hit Dice to determine Caster Level.

Conduit (Su): Sacaanti have a link to their creator similar to that of a Familiar. They are in constant telepathic contact as long as the two are within 1 mile of each other. Their creator gains the benefit of their Fast Healing within this range as well. When they wish to, and are within 1 mile of each other, both the Sacaanti and the creator can see and hear through one anothers eyes and ears as a Free Action (whichever one opts to do this is effectively deaf and blind while doing so). In fact, if the creator loses consciousness, the Sacaanti can control the creator's motor functions as a Full Round Action, causing it to walk and talk. The Sacaanti can even use one of it's creators spells to teleport the creator to it's current location if the creator has any prepared for the day. Other than that one exception, the Sacaanti can only access the spells of it's creator it would normally be able to cast. For example if the Sacaanti is a 4th Level caster, and it's Master is 17th Level, it accesses the spells it's creator has as if it too were a 4th Level caster. Both the creator and the Sacaanti can cast spells through one another, and the spell takes effect as if it originated from their location. For example if the creator wants to polymorph the Sacaanti, it does not need to be in the spells range, just within 1 mile. If the creator is out of spells, and in desperate need of a Fireball, the Sacaanti can cast Fireball, and the spell will come from it's creator as if he had cast it. There is a downside to this. If their creator dies, so does the Sacaanti, and vice versa. This means a Sacaanti will never betray it's master, even if someone uses magic to try to force it to.

Etherealness (Sp): Sacaanti can cast Ethereal Jaunt a number of times per day equal to it's creators caster level.

Combat: Sacaanti rely on their poison. On the odd chance it doesn't work, and they don't have enough spells to take care of the problem, they flee.

"Sweet Jebus..."

"Ignore me. I'm incognito."

"Brother are you sure you know the meaning of that word?"

The Abominatiion is the result of a mage drunk on his own hubris attempting a more powerful version of the Sacaanti ritual to merge a Balor and a Pit Fiend. The mage died in the attempt died, but his creation lives on, despised by both sides of the Blood War. It resembles a tail-less Pit Fiend with an odd physique and face. It could be a significant power in the world if it weren't constantly on the run.

Disease (Su): A creature struck by the Abomination’s bite attack must succeed on a DC 30 Fortitude save or be infected with a vile disease known as Demon Fever (incubation period 1 day, damage 1d6 Con). The save DC is Constitution-based. When damaged, the target must succeed on another saving throw or 1 point of damage is permanent drain instead.

Fear Aura (Su): The Abomination can radiate a 20-foot-radius fear aura as a free action. A creature in the area must succeed on a DC 28 Will save or be affected as though by a fear spell (caster level 18th). A creature that successfully saves cannot be affected again by the Abomination’s aura for 24 hours. The save DC is Charisma-based.

Poison (Su): Injury, Fortitude DC 30, initial damage 1d6 Con, secondary damage death. The save DC is Constitution-based.

Spells: The Abomination can cast can cast spells as a Sorcerer equal to it's Hit Dice. If it takes Levels in Sorcerer, those Levels stack with it's Hit Dice to determine Caster Level.
