These abilities are as the spells cast by a 20th-level sorcerer (save DC 15 + spell level).
Fear Aura (Su): As a free action, Zimimar can create an aura of fear in a 20-foot radius. It is otherwise identical with fear cast by a 20th-level sorcerer (save DC 32). If the save is successful, that creature cannot be affected again by Zimimar's fear aura for one day.
Poison (Ex): Bite, Fortitude save (DC 33); initial damage 1d6 temporary Constitution, secondary damage death.
Disease (Su): Even if an affected creature saves against the poison, it must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 33) or be infected with a vile disease called devil chills (incubation period 1d4 days, damage 1d4 points of temporary Strength). (See Disease.)
Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, Zimimar must hit a Medium-size or smaller opponent with its tail slap attack. If he gets a hold, he can constrict.
Constrict (Ex): Zimimar deals 2d4+12 points of damage with a successful grapple check against Medium-size or smaller creatures.
Summon Devils (Sp): Three times per day Zimimar can automatically summon three lemures, osyluths, or barbazu, two erinyes, hamatulas, or cornugons, or one pit fiend.
Regeneration (Ex): Zimimar takes normal damage from holy and blessed weapons of at least +3 enchantment.
Devil Qualities (Ex): Immune to fire and poison; cold and acid resistance 20.
See in Darkness (Su): Can see perfectly in darkness of any kind, even that created by deeper darkness spells.
Telepathy (Su): Zimimar can communicate telepathically with any creature within 100 feet that has a language.
Zimimar was first mentioned in Dragon #75 (Ed Greenwood and Gary Gygax, 1983).
Evil Subtype
A subtype usually applied only to outsiders native to the evil-aligned Outer Planes. Evil outsiders are also called fiends. Most creatures that have this subtype also have evil alignments; however, if their alignments change, they still retain the subtype. Any effect that depends on alignment affects a creature with this subtype as if the creature has an evil alignment, no matter what its alignment actually is. The creature also suffers effects according to its actual alignment. A creature with the evil subtype overcomes damage reduction as if its natural weapons and any weapons it wields were evil-aligned (see Damage Reduction).
Lawful Subtype
A subtype usually applied only to outsiders native to the lawful-aligned Outer Planes. Most creatures that have this subtype also have lawful alignments; however, if their alignments change, they still retain the subtype. Any effect that depends on alignment affects a creature with this subtype as if the creature has a lawful alignment, no matter what its alignment actually is. The creature also suffers effects according to its actual alignment. A creature with the lawful subtype overcomes damage reduction as if its natural weapons and any weapons it wields were lawful-aligned (see Damage Reduction).
