:Unlike most demons, a dretch's slovenly personality and disdain for prolonged physical labor rarely result in success. Advanced dretches are rare, but those who do find it within themselves to be more than they were at creation often become the pauper-kings of the Abyss, cruel and bitter in their rule over vermin, broken souls, mindless undead, and other dretches.

Yet to the dretch lords, these realms are their empires, and they defend them with a pitiful tenacity.

But even the lowest demons of the Abyss are dangerous and filled with a driving need to spread ruin and dismay. The lowly dretch is as hideous and foul as it is cruel, even if it lacks the strength and power to realize its need to brutalize others in its native realm. The lot of the dretch's existence is to serve more powerful demons as victims, and only the lucky few survive long enough to evolve.
 
The dretch is a favorite target for dabblers in Abyssal spawnings to call forth. Relatively weak and easy to bully, dretches can be imbued with raw power by their summoner to match whatever situation is desired, although no-one ever summons a dretch more powerful than they are. Such would be foolish, as the lowly things would flee or betray in an instant if they thought they could. No matter their raw strength, a dretch can often be pressured into long periods of servitude with only vague promises of the opportunity to vent their frustrations and anger on softer foes. Yet the prospective dretch-spawner would do well to remember that these demons are as craven and untrustworthy as they come. A dretch faced with a more powerful foe is only too eager to trade what it knows for its pitiful excuse for a life.
 
Unlike most demons, a dretch's slovenly personality and disdain for prolonged physical labor rarely result in success. Advanced dretches are rare, but those who do find it within themselves to be more than they were at creation often become the pauper-kings of the Abyss, cruel and bitter in their rule over vermin, broken souls, mindless undead, and other dretches.

A dretch stands 4 feet tall and weighs 180 pounds. Dretches typically form from the souls of slothful, evil mortals &mdash; yet it only takes a small fragment of a soul to trigger such a hideous birth. A single soul can often trigger the manifestation of a small army of dretches, and the sight of a horde of fresh-birthed dretches pulling free from the heaving protomatter of the Abyss is a nauseating and terrifying one indeed.

Special Abilities

Better You Than Me (Sp) Move Action 1/Enc
  • Concentration: 1d20 + 13 vs. a DC of 21 (8 needed on the die)

Once per encounter as a move action, the Dretch may attempt to spawn forth another Dretch from the Abyssal planes to aid it in combat. This new dretch is always the same CR as the original Dretch, but does NOT have any Patterns or Roles the original Dretch may have been imbued with. Roll 1d20, and on a result of a 10 or higher, the new Dretch appears in an un-blocked, unoccupied square adjacent to the Dretch that spawned it. If there is no legal square to summon into, the summoning fails and is wasted.

The new Dretch has the same initiative value as the Dretch that summoned it. It may not act until the next round as it orients itself to the material plane, but this is fine, as the cowardly Dretches often summon a new patsy between themselves and danger and then flee. The new Dretch is mistrustful of everyone including other Dretches, but will defend itself if attacked, and most likely will attack anything its fellow Dretches are attacking. A Dretch may only use this ability once per encounter, even if it fails. Spawned Dretches may also use this ability if they wish! Note that spawned Dretches provide XP and treasure when slain just like normal monsters. Because this is a spell, it provokes attacks of opportunity.

Wretched Demise (Su) Auto Upon Death

When a Dretch is slain, it explodes in an oily black fire of terrible bile and abyssal essence. This 3x3 patch of fire, centered on the Dretch's square, will cover any surface suitable for Walk or Climb movement the Dretch was adjacent to when it died. If it dies in mid-air or otherwise away from any surface, the vile flaming ichor forms a 3x3x3 mass centered on their square, instead. Any non-demon creature in the burning area centered on the Dretch when it dies takes 1d8+6 points of darkfire (energy, rare) damage. Affected creatures may make a DC 18 Reflex save for half damage.

Furthermore, the area affected by the Wretched Demise remains aflame and does not dissipate until the end of the encounter. Any non-demon creature who passes through one or more squares of the affected area takes 1d6+4 points of darkfire (energy, rare) damage for every square entered. If multiple zones exist, their effects do not stack, but obviously they present a larger obstacle.

Dretch

Dretch

Looking like three-foot-tall mounds of reddish, blubbery skin, with exaggerated scowling faces, long, knobby arms, and ineffectual stumpy legs, dretches are the lowest type of demonic thing.

But even the lowest demons of the Abyss are dangerous and filled with a driving need to spread ruin and dismay. The lowly dretch is as hideous and foul as it is cruel, even if it lacks the strength and power to realize its need to brutalize others in its native realm. The lot of the dretch's existence is to serve more powerful demons as victims, and only the lucky few survive long enough to evolve.

The dretch is a favorite target for dabblers in Abyssal spawnings to call forth. Relatively weak and easy to bully, dretches can be imbued with raw power by their summoner to match whatever situation is desired, although no-one ever summons a dretch more powerful than they are. Such would be foolish, as the lowly things would flee or betray in an instant if they thought they could. No matter their raw strength, a dretch can often be pressured into long periods of servitude with only vague promises of the opportunity to vent their frustrations and anger on softer foes. Yet the prospective dretch-spawner would do well to remember that these demons are as craven and untrustworthy as they come. A dretch faced with a more powerful foe is only too eager to trade what it knows for its pitiful excuse for a life.

Unlike most demons, a dretch's slovenly personality and disdain for prolonged physical labor rarely result in success. Advanced dretches are rare, but those who do find it within themselves to be more than they were at creation often become the pauper-kings of the Abyss, cruel and bitter in their rule over vermin, broken souls, mindless undead, and other dretches. Their empires are confined to abandoned stretches of sewers under backwater cities, unstable reaches of swampland avoided by more sensible minds, and other undesirable corners of the Abyss that even demons find uncomfortable or foul. Yet to the dretch lords, these realms are their empires, and they defend them with a pitiful tenacity.

A dretch stands 4 feet tall and weighs 180 pounds. Dretches typically form from the souls of slothful, evil mortals — yet it only takes a small fragment of a soul to trigger such a hideous birth. A single soul can often trigger the manifestation of a small army of dretches, and the sight of a horde of fresh-birthed dretches pulling free from the heaving protomatter of the Abyss is a nauseating and terrifying one indeed.

Combat Tactics

Dretches are, above all else, lazy, cowardly, and eager to continue living. They prefer not to fight, and usually run from any encounter unless forced to stay by a power greater than them, or due to limited escape options. Of course, Dretches are also pretty stupid, and have a tendency to hide in the nearest dead end, hoping no one will find them there.

In combat, a dretch's first priority is to call in some other dretch to do the fighting instead of them, via their Better You Than Me ability. Once that's done, dretches will try to get as many full attacks as possible, as moving around is a huge bother.

Needless to say, while the Wretched Demise is a horrible ability, the Dretch has no real desire to have that happen. When it inevitably does, any remaining Dretches in the area will make use of the 'blocked' terrain to make it harder for multiple foes to come at them.

Out of Combat

Dretches are the vile masses of the lower Abyss, and are as numerous as particles of filth at the bottom of a cosmic sewer. They are remarkably easy to spawn, and as a result, the less scrupulous sorts of creatures will often have them around as servants, minions, cheap (if poor) labor, etc. This is of little note in most cases, except for the Dretch's Wretched Demise ability, which means that even as lowly and vile and ineffectual as they are, their presence on almost any battlefield means they create terrain upon their death which must be taken into account.

Granted, this terrain is frequently little more than "don't step in that, it's gross", but that can have an impact more often than you might think.
