Khasprickle
Creature 9 (unique) — fey
LANDfeypoison
Pukwudgies go by many names in many regions, but those who know of them agree that defying their mischievous nature provokes their wrath. In ancient times, pukwudgies traveled to the Universe from the First World, perhaps in the wake of the gnome emigration. These proud fey are obsessed with displays of respect, and while they first attempted to befriend mortals, each attempt ended in tragedy as the pukwudgies perceived any potential slight as a grave insult. Mortals, fearing these reactions, b

Abilities
Defensive Quills — A creature that hits a pukwudgie with an unarmed Strike or a non-reach melee Strike takes 3d8 piercing damage (DC 28 Reflex save). On a critical failure, the creature also takes 1d6 persistent poison damage from the poisoned quills.

Change Shape (concentrate, polymorph, primal) — Khasprickle takes on the physical form of a giant porcupine. His size changes to Medium, he loses his weapon Strikes, and he gains a quill Strike (+21 for 2d8+8 piercing plus 1d8 persistent poison).
The monster changes its shape indefinitely. It can use this action again to return to its natural shape or adopt a new shape. Unless otherwise noted, a monster cannot use Change Shape to appear as a specific individual. Using Change Shape counts as creating a disguise for the Impersonate use of Deception. The monster's transformation automatically defeats Perception DCs to determine whether the creature is a member of the ancestry or creature type into which it transformed, and it gains a +4 status bonus to its Deception DC to prevent others from seeing through its disguise. Change Shape abilities specify what shapes the monster can adopt. The monster doesn't gain any special abilities of the new shape, only its physical form. For example, in each shape, it replaces its normal Speeds and Strikes, and might potentially change its senses or size. Any changes are listed in its stat block.

Pincushion — Khasprickle makes three quill Strikes in quick succession. These Strikes count toward his multiple attack penalty but don't apply the multiple attack penalty until all three Strikes are complete.

Quill Fighter — Khasprickle wields his quills like a deadly weapon. He deals an additional 3d6 precision damage with quill Strikes against Off-Guard targets. On a critical hit with a quill, Khasprickle pierces a pressure point or nerve cluster with pinpoint accuracy; the target becomes Clumsy 2 for 1d4 rounds (or increases the value of their clumsy condition by 1).
