| Once per encounter, as a swift action, an Entropic creature may choose one non-chaos-aligned creature to Smite. Once it has declared its 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.

| |
|
| |
| == Feats ==
| |
|
| |

| |
| 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...

Smite Order (Su; Entropic Creature Pattern)
Once per encounter, as a swift action, an Entropic creature may choose one lawful-aligned creature to Smite. Once it has declared its Smite Order target, it adds a +3 bonus to melee attack rolls, and a damage bonus, against that target only, of 2 points of damage, inflicted as
scouring (energy, uncommon) damage. Smite Order persists until the target is dead or the end of the encounter.
