*Stormwrack
Change Shape (Su): The Grand Marharaja of the Vortex, may She live forever, can assume the form of any creature Huge size or smaller.
Vortex (Su): Her Most Merciful Munificence can transform herself into a whirlpool once every 10 minutes and remain in that form for up to 10 rounds. In this form, Her Heavenly Holiness can move through the water or along the bottom at 120 ft per round.
The whirlpool is 10 feet wide at the base, up to 60 feet wide at the top and up to 100 feet tall. The Guiding Hand of the Sea controls the exact height, but it must be at least 10 feet.
Her (Most Graceful) movement while in whirlpool form does not provoke attacks of opportunity, even if She (in Her Infinite Wisdom) enters the space another creature occupies. Another (most lowly) creature might be caught in the whirlpool if it touches or enters the whirlpool, or if the whirlpool moves into or through the creature’s space.
Creatures Large size or smaller might take damage when caught in the whirlpool and may be swept up by it. An affected creature must succeed on a DC 48 Reflex save when it comes into contact with the whirlpool or take 6d10 points of damage. It must also succeed on a second DC 48 Reflex save or be picked up bodily and held suspended in the powerful currents, automatically taking 2d10 points of damage each round. A creature with a swim speed is allowed a DC 48 Reflex save each round to escape the whirlpool. The creature still takes damage but can leave if the save is successful. The save DC is Strength-based and includes a +6 racial adjustment.
Creatures trapped in the whirlpool cannot move except to go where The Lady of Benevolent Waves carries them or to escape the whirlpool. Creatures caught in the whirlpool can otherwise act normally, but must make a Concentration check (DC 25 + spell level) to cast a spell. Creatures caught in the whirlpool take a -4 penalty to Dexterity and a -10 penalty on attack rolls. The Font of All True Knowledge can have only as many trapped inside a whirlpool at one time as will fit inside the whirlpool’s volume.
Her Blessed Ebb and Flow can eject any carried creatures whenever she wishes, depositing them wherever the whirlpool happens to be.
If the whirlpool’s base touches the ground, it creates a swirling cloud of debris. This cloud is centered on the True Mistress of the Storm and has a diameter equal to half the whirlpool’s height. The cloud obscures all vision, including darkvision, beyond 5 feet. Creatures 5 feet away have concealment, while those farther away have total concealment.
Those caught in the cloud must succeed on a Concentration check (DC 25 + spell level) to cast a spell.
While in whirlpool form, The Beloved of Marine Creatures Great and Small cannot make melee attacks and does not threaten the area around Her Incredible Form.
Water Mastery (Ex): The Most Honored Sea Mother gains a +10 bonus on attack and damage rolls if both She and her foe (unworthy dog that he is) touch the water. If an opponent (may the sun curse his children to the fourth generation) or She is landbound, She suffers (with the grace and dignity that eternally spring forth from Her Honored being) a -4 penalty on attack and damage rolls. (These are not included in the stat block)
Possessions: Although Her Gracious Magnificence never has to resort to something so gross and mundane as physical combat, a ceremonial
+5 coral trident of returning rests ever at hand for Her. This powerful weapon also functions as a combined
staff of power and
staff of the waves that regains 1 charge every hour it is fully immersed in water. Any marid can expend a use of
limited wish to utilize the weapon's powers for 1 hour. Those unworthy that would touch the trident without this offering suffer
bestow curse (DC 30) and 1d6 acid damage per round.
A curved
+6 aquan keen dagger made of pearlsteel rests in a sheathe at Her belt. The pearl forming the pommel of the weapon is an
orb of storms. As the riches of Her Holiness are as the waves of the ocean themselves and without number, no true listing can account for the potential magical wealth and defenses She may employ at any one time. Various robes, vestments and jewelery adorn the Master of Ten Thousand Pearls's person, typically providing a minimum of a +12 armor bonus, a +7 deflection bonus, a +7 resistance bonus to saves and universal energy immunity.
