Fearsome Roar: A phantom bear can loose a fearsome roar every 1d4 rounds.
All creatures except the caster of the phantom bear spell within 120 feet must succeed on a DC 26 Will save or be frightened for 3d6 rounds.
Those who are within 30 feet when they fail their saves are panicked instead of frightened.
Incorporeal Traits: A phantom bear is harmed only by other incorporeal creatures, magic weapons, spells, spell-like abilities, and supernatural abilities.
It has a 50% chance to ignore any damage from a corporeal source, except for force effects or attacks made with ghost touch weapons.
It can pass through solid objects, but not force effects, at will.
Its attacks ignore natural armor, armor, and shields, but deflection bonuses and force effects work normally against them.
An incorporeal creature always moves silently and cannot be heard with Listen checks if it doesn't wish to be.
Shambler
(Player's Handbook v.3.5)
Conjuration (Creation)
Level: Druid 9, Plant 9,
Components: V, S,
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level)
Effect: Three or more shambling mounds, no two of which can be more than 30 ft. apart; see text
Duration: Seven days or seven months (D); see text
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: No
The shambler spell creates 1d4+2 shambling mounds with 11 HD each.
(See the Monster Manual for details about shambling mounds).
The creatures willingly aid you in combat or battle, perform a specific mission, or serve as bodyguards.
The creatures remain with you for seven days unless you dismiss them.
If the shamblers are created only for guard duty, however, the duration of the spell is seven months.
In this case, the shamblers can only be ordered to guard a specific site or location.
Shamblers summoned to guard duty cannot move outside the spell's range, which is measured from the point where each first appeared.
The shamblers have resistance to fire as normal shambling mounds do only if the terrain is rainy, marshy, or damp.
Shapechange
(Player's Handbook v.3.5)
Transmutation
Level: Druid 9, Sorcerer 9, Wizard 9, Animal 9,
Components: V, S, AF,
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Personal
Target: You
Duration: 10 min./level (D)
This spell functions like polymorph, except that it enables you to assume the form of any single nonunique creature (of any type) from Fine to Colossal size.
The assumed form cannot have more than your caster level in Hit Dice (to a maximum of 25 HD).
Unlike polymorph, this spell allows incorporeal or gaseous forms to be assumed.
You gain all extraordinary and supernatural abilities (both attacks and qualities) of the assumed form, but you lose your own supernatural abilities.
You also gain the type of the new form (for example, dragon or magical beast) in place of your own.
The new form does not disorient you.
Parts of your body or pieces of equipment that are separated from you do not revert to their original forms.
You can become just about anything you are familiar with.
You can change form once each round as a free action.
The change takes place either immediately before your regular action or immediately after it, but not during the action.
For example, you are in combat and assume the form of a will-o'-wisp.
When this form is no longer useful, you change into a stone golem and walk away.
When pursued, you change into a flea, which hides on a horse until it can hop off.
From there, you can become a dragon, an orc, or just about anything else you are familiar with.
If you use this spell to create a disguise, you get a +10 bonus on your Disguise check.
Focus: A jade circlet worth no less than 1,500 gp, which you must place on your head when casting the spell.
(The focus melds into your new form when you change shape).
