View source for Haunter (3.5e Monster)

=== Combat ===

''Tactics Round-by-Round:''

Haunters never attempt to fight fair, and instead use their ability to spread terror and sleep to limit enemy options.
* Round 0: Remain 20 feet above the ground with flying.
* Round 1: Split up enemies with its Fear ability.
* Round 2: Use Sleep on most dangerous seeming foe.
* Round 3: Eat Dreams.
If the Haunter's life is in question, it will attempt to escape through the nearest solid object.

'''{{Anchor|Fear}} ([[Su]]):''' A Haunter can invoke ''[[SRD:Fear|fear]]'' at will, as a sorcerer of a level equal to its hit dice.

:The sample Haunter has a save DC of 20 for its Fear ability, and a caster level of 8.

'''''{{Anchor|Sleep}}'' ([[Sp]]):''' As the spell ''super sleep'' (which in turn is as ''[[SRD:Sleep|sleep]]'', but 4d6 hit dice affected, no hit die cap, Spell Level 4), as a sorcerer of a caster level equal to its hit dice.

:The sample Haunter has a save DC of 20 for its Sleep ability, and a caster level of 8.

'''{{Anchor|Dream Eater}} ([[Su]]):''' A Haunter can enter into the dreams of sleeping creatures and strike at them while they are at their most vulnerable. As a standard action, a Haunter can make a coup de grace on a sleeping creature within Close range (25 ft. plus 5 ft. per two HD). This attack inflicts 1d6 per hit die, which can be normal or nonlethal damage. The victim must then make a Fort save (DC 10 + damage inflicted) or instantly die, or be knocked unwakeably unconscious for an hour if the damage inflicted was nonlethal. This ability is a [mind-affecting] [fear] effect.

'''Invisibility ([[Su]]):''' Haunters are always invisible, as the spell ''[[SRD:Greater Invisibility|greater invisibility]]''.

'''Spectral Force ([[Su]]):''' Though Incorporeal, Haunters can affect things in the material plane to a limited degree. A Haunter can exert force on physical objects as if it had a Strength equal to twelve less than its Charisma.

:The sample Haunter can interact with physical objects as if with a Strength of 11.

'''{{Anchor|Chills}} ([[Su]]):''' A creature struck by the Haunter's Lick is also affected by a ''[[SRD:Contagion|contagion]]'', as cast by a Sorcerer of a caster level equal to the Haunter's Hit Dice.

:The sample Haunter has a DC of 19 for its Chills.

'''{{Anchor|Daylight Vulnerability}} ([[Su]]):''' A Haunter is extremely weak in daylight. In the light of the sun (or similar brightness, such as from a daylight spell), a Haunter cannot use its Spectral Force or Invisibility abilities.

'''Incorporeal Traits:''' A Haunter can be harmed only by other incorporeal creatures, +1 or better magical weapons, spells, spell-like abilities, and supernatural abilities. The creature has a 50% chance to ignore any damage or other effect from a corporeal source except for force effects or ghost touch items. A Haunter can pass through solid objects, but not force effects, at will. A Haunter always moves silently and cannot be heard with Listen checks if it doesn't want to be.
