'Entropic Creature' is an inherited template that can be added to any creature that is a 'Chaotic' variant of a base creature. Free-spirited Trolls, wandering Fire Giants, and wide-scattered Orcs can all be represented by this template.

No changes.
Defensive Ability
An Entropic Creature gains the following abilities, which may be added to their Bestiary entry:
Aura: - Same as Base Creature
SR: - Same as Base Creature
Special Defenses: The Entropic Creature gains ER/- equal to half its adjusted CR. It also gains DR/lawful equal to its CR.
- It gains a +4 untyped bonus to all saving throws.
Immunities: Same as the base creature, except any keywords of 'evil' or 'good' are changed to lawful.

Same as base creature, except utterly, completely fluid. They have no heirarchy of social status, seem to have no discernable schedule or rules, love unique clothes and possessions, and ignore the strictures of law.

Offensive Ability
An Entropic Creature gains the following abilities, which may be added to their Bestiary entry:
- Smite Law(Su)
Once per day, as a swift action, an Entropic creature may choose one non-chaos-aligned creature to Smite. Once it has declared it's Smite target, it adds a +3 bonus to melee attack rolls, and a damage bonus equal to its adjusted Hit Dice. Smite persists until the target is dead or the Entropic creature rests.
Ability Scores
No changes.
Base Attack Bonus
No changes.
Maneuver Offense and Maneuver Defense
+1 bonus to Maneuver Offense and Maneuver Defense.
Feats
Skills
Sense Motive, CR+8. This is useful for detecting targets for their Smite Law attack, if they have no other way of identifying a suitable victim (detect alignment, the PC with an emergency backup pole and a sign that reads "I'm Lawful," etc.). Note that this also make summoning Entropic creatures for lawful purposes a bit of a challenge if they figure out what you're doing...
