Special abilities[]
An alhoon has most of the usual undead immunities, specifically to critical hits, disease, level drain, ability drain, mind-affecting spells, paralysis, poison, and sneak attacks. However, this creature does not have the usual undead immunity to death magic. (Probably a bug.)
The attacks of an alhoon penetrate damage reduction as a +2 weapon. In addition, this creature has use of psionic charm monster once per day, psionic inertial barrier and psionic mass concussion each twice per day, and psionic mind blast and psionic mind blast 10m radius each thrice per day.
A summoned alhoon is a level 19 wizard with the following spells prepared.
| Level 3 | dispel magic, fireball, lightning bolt, Mestil's acid breath, slow |
|---|---|
| Level 4 | charm monster, confusion, Evard's black tentacles, fear, wall of fire |
| Level 5 | dominate person, energy buffer, feeblemind, hold monster, mind fog |
| Level 6 | chain lightning, greater dispelling, greater spell breach, mass haste, true seeing |
| Level 7 | power word, stun |
Notes[]
- This is one of the creatures that can be summoned with the summon greater undead feat.
- Many of this creature's abilities are more similar to a lich lord than to a standard alhoon.
