Radiant Touched (3.5e Template)
Radiant Touched[edit]
On the para-elemental plane of radiance, there are Radiant Creatures, vibrant versions of more common material plane things. Sometimes they intermingle with their material counterparts, and as a result, the blood of a radiant creature makes its way onto the surface of the material world. They are the Radiant Touched, and they glow with an inner light, vibrant and alive. They may appear colorful, saturated with bright hues and light, and some have ribbons of visible light within their body.

This inherited template can be applied to any Aberration, Animal, Dragon, Fey, Giant, Humanoid, Magical Beast, or Monstrous Humanoid.

The creature’s type changes to Outsider. Size is unchanged. Do not recalculate base attack bonus or saves.
Speed[edit]
The speed of light infuses their body, granting them a +10 increase in speed.
Special Attacks[edit]
By releasing their inner light they can stun their foes. They may cast Color Spray at their character level 1/day. They gain an additional use at 3 HD, 6 HD, 9 HD, and get it at will at 12 HD. The save is Cha based.
