Special Qualities: control wolves
Special Abilities
Control Wolves (Su)
Amon can control up to 40 HD of wolves, worgs, winter wolves, or dire wolves to a range of 1 mile. This is otherwise similar to a control undead spell cast by a 20th-level sorcerer and does not count against his 40 HD summoning limit (unless Amon summoned the creatures).Fear Gaze (Su)
A creature that successfully saves against Amon's fear gaze cannot be affected again for one day. The save DC is Charisma-based.Craver
: Amon's unique oversized weapon is a Huge +4 axiomatic thundering heavy mace. In Duke Amon's hands it deals double his Strength bonus to damage in addition to its +4 enhancement bonus when he uses it two-handed (+30 total). He is able to use the oversized weapon without penalty.Ecology
Environment: AnyOrganization: solitary or troupe (Amon plus one 18-HD winter wolf, 4-8 bone devils, and 3-7 dire wolves or 5-12 wolves)
Treasure: double standard
Amon is a vassal in service to Geryon, commanding no less than 3 legions of bone devils. He is completely loyal to the Great Serpent and never questions his post. On more than one occasion an arch-devil has tried to dupe Amon into betraying his lord, but such attempts always fail.
Amon's iron citadel Harrowcourt sits high on a flat-topped mountain within the domain of Hell's fifth plane. It is a great, dark place filled with devils, wolves, and creatures far worse.
Amon stands 9 feet tall and weighs about 600 pounds. Amon begins combat with his fear gaze. Unaffected creatures are subjected to a barrage of spell-like abilities and physical attacks with his mace. If combat is going against him, he summons his wolf companions or other devils to aid him or cover his escape.
