WeaverAnvilLANDfiendvelstrac
Interlocutors are the most talented surgeon-sculptors of the velstracs, carving away flesh and replacing it with new body parts of muscle, sinew, and metal. Each interlocutor structures their individual appearance carefully, but all are towering, multi-limbed amalgamations of the strongest limbs, densest bone, and sharpest metal they can find. They continually search for new material to graft to their forms, and their slain foes are rarely found intact, as little is more valuable to interlocutor

Abilities
Greater Darkvision — A creature with greater darkvision can see perfectly well in areas of darkness and dim light, though such vision is in black and white only. A creature with greater darkvision can see through even forms of magical darkness.
Painsight (divine) — A velstrac automatically knows whether a creature it sees has any of the Doomed, Dying, and Wounded conditions, as well as the value of those conditions.
+1 Status to All Saves vs. Magic —
Regeneration 20 (Deactivated by Holy or Silver) — This monster regains the listed number of Hit Points each round at the beginning of its turn. Its Dying condition never increases beyond Dying 3 as long as its regeneration is active. However, if it takes damage of a type listed in the regeneration entry, its regeneration deactivates until the end of its next turn. Deactivate the regeneration before applying any damage of a listed type, since that damage might kill the monster by bringing it to Dying 4.
Attack of Opportunity —
Glimpse of Stolen Flesh (aura, divine, fear, mental, visual) — 30 feet. When a creature ends its turn in the aura, it sees pieces of its own body amid the interlocutor's form. The creature must succeed at a DC 33 Will save or become Stunned 1.
Focus Gaze (concentrate, divine, fear, mental, visual) — The interlocutor stares at a creature they can see within 30 feet. The creature must immediately attempt a Will save against glimpse of stolen flesh. In addition, if the creature was already Stunned, on a failed save, it feels its internal organs twist and writhe, and is Clumsy 2 for 1 minute.
After attempting this save, the creature is then temporarily immune until the start of the interlocutor's next turn.

Surgical Rend — This functions as the Rend ability, dealing claw damage. In addition, if the target is a living creature with organs and muscle, the interlocutor opens a precise wound. Until the creature is restored to its maximum Hit Points, thus closing the wound, Strikes against the creature deal 1d6 extra precision damage.
