Quickling
Creature 3 (uncommon) — fey
Pre-Remaster content. May include legacy alignment.
Few creatures can match a quickling's speed. These malicious fey creatures delight in striking with blinding speed and accuracy, racing in to stab and slash at foes before scampering away for cover with maddening- even frightening-swiftness. Stories of people simply doubling over, bleeding from what appear to be spontaneously opening wounds, are often eyewitness accounts of quickling attacks.

Abilities
Can't Catch Me —
Slow Susceptibility — The quickling takes a -2 status penalty to saving throws against effects that cause the Slowed condition. If the quickling ever becomes slowed, they lose their supernatural speed, can't Fade from View, and become Sickened 1 for the duration of the slow. They also can't reduce this sickened condition for the duration of the slowed effect.
Fade from View — The quickling can't use Fade from View again for 1d4 rounds.
Sneak Attack — The quickling's Strikes deal an extra 1d6 precision damage to Off-Guard creatures.
Supernatural Speed — The quickling's speed, combined with nearly instantaneous acceleration and deceleration, enables them to move in astonishing ways. As long as they have a firm surface to travel across, they can Stride their full movement vertically or horizontally. They can even run across unstable surfaces, such as water, in the same way, although dangerous surfaces (acid, lava, etc.) harm them as normal. They must end their movement on a horizontal surface capable of bearing their weight or else they fall.
