Not just anybody can do this, you know. Well, okay, they can if they have this pattern. But otherwise...

Foo Creature Pattern (+1 CR)

Alignment: changes to Pure Good
Type: changes to Outsider
Subtype: add Good to subtypes


Foo Creature is a pattern that can be added to any creature that is a Higher Good variant of a base creature, typically brought from the Plane of Goodness or other bright, shining realm. Foo creatures look like their base creature, except they are almost hyper-real, with vivid colors and crisp, strongly-detailed features such as large, bright eyes, extravagant whiskers and luxurious fur, shining with goodness and bursting with health.

This creature seems empowered by higher forces, and moves with odd stiffness, but it seems no less dangerous for it.

Stoney Form (Su; Foo Creature Pattern)

As a standard action, a Foo Creature may transform itself into a stone statue. Its appearance changes to become that of a statue, which may or may not match its appearance as a Foo Creature. In areas where there is other statuary, as is frequently the case in temples, public squares, and the like, a Foo Creature may, if unobserved, roll a Stealth Check and take 20 on the die, in order to conceal itself. While in Stoney Form, the Foo Creature gains DR 20+1/- , ER 20+1/- and fast healing 1. It loses use of all senses except Blindsense and may not take any action other than dropping Stoney Form, which is a swift action. Foo creatures often serve as guardians for places of religious significance, and as such, they are effective ambushers, seeming to appear out of sculpture gardens, formal halls, even bas-reliefs, to defend against defilers.
