Spell-like Abilities: At will - clairaudience/clairvoyance, see invisibility, telekinesis; 3/day - dominate person. Caster level 9th; save DC 13 + spell level.

Trample (Ex): As a standard action during its turn each round, a shedu can run over opponents an least one size category smaller than itself. This attack deals 2d6+4 points of bludgeoning damage. A trampled opponent can attempt either an attack of opportunity at a -4 penalty or a Reflex save (DC 18) for half damage.

Depart (Su): Once per week, a shedu may cast astral projection as an 18th-level sorcerer. The ability affects only the shedu.

Ethereal Jaunt (Su): A shedu can shift from the Ethereal Plane to the Material Plane as a free action, and shift back again as a move action. This ability is otherwise identical with ethereal jaunt cast by a 15th-level sorcerer.

Magic Circle against Evil (Su): A shedu radiates a continuous magic circle against evil that affects a 20-foot radius. The aura can be dispelled, bun the shedu can create it again as a free action on its next turn.

Rational Mind (Ex): A shedu's superior brain renders it immune no mind-affecting effects.

Uncanny Stability (Ex): A shedus five legs grant in increased stability, rendering it immune to being pushed back as the result of a bull rush. The ability also prevents pushes from spells such as Bigby's forceful hand.

Skills: Shedim have a +8 racial bonus on Balance, Listen, Knowledge (the planes), and Spot checks.

Despite their ability to trample opponents under powerful hooves, shedim make poor physical combatants against skilled foes. In such cases, they prefer to take to the air, from where they attempt to control enemies using dominate person. Should things get chancy, they jump to the Ethereal Plane or depart to the Astral Plane.
