Creature 17 — archon, celestial, holy
AnvilWeaverLANDAERIALcelestialarchonholy
Fiends spread corruption to places across the planes—every place they can reach. Kadamels guard the most crucial pathways and holy sanctums. They hold a patient vigil, never distracted from their task. Most crucially, they watch over planar portals, barring passage to all but the most powerful fends.

Abilities
Stone Shield — The kadamel can create a stone shield for defense, which grants a +2 circumstance bonus to AC and has Hardness 15, HP 120, and BT 60.
All-Around Vision — This monster can see in all directions simultaneously and therefore can't be flanked.
+1 Status to All Saves vs. Magic —
Archon's Protection —
Patience of Stone (aura, divine) — 10 feet. Any enemy that ends its turn in the aura must succeed at a DC 36 Fortitude save or be Slowed 1 for 1 minute. If the creature succeeds, it's temporarily immune for 24 hours.

Effect The kadamel alters the inscriptions on their body to store an 8th-rank spell, choosing from Divine Decree, Divine Immolation, Divine Wrath, or Planar Seal. While storing the spell, the kadamel chooses an area they're guarding, typically a room containing a planar portal. When an intruder enters the area, the spell is cast automatically and expended. If the spell is targeted, it targets the triggering creature, and if it has an area, the area is centered on the triggering creature. Noticing the glyph requires a successful DC 38 Perception check. The glyph has an unlimited duration and ends if the kadamel uses this ability again or Dismisses the glyph.
