Abilities

Final Reward

When the hellbound honor guard is reduced to 0 Hit Points, a fiery fissure forms beneath their feet and a host of screeching devils pours forth to drag their souls to Hell. All creatures within a 5-foot emanation take 3d8 fire and 3d8 spirit damage (DC 29 reflex save), and all creatures within a 10-foot emanation must attempt a DC 29 will save or be Frightened 1 (Frightened 2 on a critical failure). The rift then immediately closes.

Requirements The hellbound honor guard has only 2 segments


Effect On the edge of defeat, the honor guard calls a paean to Asmodeus for aid. The honor guard regains 3d8 healing Hit Points. As standard for troops reduced to 2 segments, they can't regain Hit Points above the lowest listed threshold.

Chelaxian nobles, military officers, and other dignitaries deemed deserving by House Thrune are sometimes granted the protection of a detail of these elite soldiers: unwavering champions of the Chelaxian military machine who have sworn themselves to Asmodeus in exchange for unmatched strength and resilience.
