"...[name] stood in the [name2] Hall, a hundred peers watching from the galleys above. She called her Provider's name, and all could feel the power she commanded. [name3] summoned his wards, but all that watched knew his efforts were in vain. The next name she offered was his, and the misery of [name3] was legend."

translated from Dekàlan fragment found in ruins of Ilduùn

Outsider

The World of Teréth End has a unique collection of fiends and monsters.  Compiled here are those creatures that have been encountered, presented by game statistics and some ecological information (where appropriate).  Details presented in this Bestiary should be viewed as basic templates, as the magic Chaos often alters individual creatures significantly from the templates presented.

Dagari
Within The Dream of Sudul nothing is more feared than the ubiquitous Dagari.  The Dagari are ethereal manifestations, existing only in The Dream and the most terrible nightmares of the Waking World.  The race (that term is applied loosely) serve as the couriers, attendants, slaves, and warriors of Daggon the Horrible, spreading his terror across the minds of the sleeping, or The Dream's hapless wayward.  Their purpose it would seem is to perpetuate the endless struggle against the forces of Jarjatha (see Jargath).  As servants of Sudul, their task is to return the uninitiated to the Waking World, though rarely is the escort completed with the traveler's mind intact.  The Dagari most commonly appear as shapeless forms with eyes, tentacles, teeth, and savage claws twisting and contorting without the restriction of a physical body.  All Dagari employ the supernatural abilities of Fear (see DMGpp76,77) and Incorporeality (see DMGpp77,78) at will.  Incorporeality has no effect in The Dream.  It is also notable that Dagari come in all forms and challenge ratings.  Included below are some examples:

Dagari: CR 1; Medium Outsider (Chaotic, Evil, Incorporeal); HD 1d8+2 (6); Init +1 (Dex); Spd 15 ft., fly 30 ft. (average); AC 15 (+1 Dex, +4 Natural); Atk +3 melee (bite 1d6) and +1/+1 melee (claw 1d4); Face/Reach 5 ft x 5 ft / 5 ft; SQ Fear, Incorporeality; AL CE; Fort +4; Ref +1; Wil +3; Fort ; Ref ; Wil ; Str 10; Dex 12; Con 14; Int 11; Wis 12; Cha 13; Skills: Hide +10, Intimidate +5, Listen +4, Move Silently +10, Search +4, Spot +5; Feats: Manifest Self, Multiattack; SA - Fear (Sp) (MMp8)

Dagari: CR 8; Huge Outsider (Chaotic, Evil, Incorporeal); HD 8d8+32 (64); Init +7 (+3 Dex, +4 Improved Initiative); Spd 25 ft., fly 60 ft. (average); AC 21 (-2 size, +3 Dex, +10 Natural); Atk +12 melee (bite 2d6) and +10/+10/+10 melee (claws 1d10 or barbed tentacles 1d8+3); Face/Reach 10 ft x 10 ft / 10 ft (15 ft with tentacles); SA Constrict, Fear; SQ Damage Resistance, Incorporeality; SR 20; AL CE; Fort +10; Ref +5; Wil +9; Str 14; Dex 15; Con 18; Int 14; Wis 15; Cha 16; Skills: Hide +20, Intimidate +14, Listen +7, Move Silently +20, Search +10, Spot +14; Feats: Dodge, Improved Initiative, Manifest Self, Multiattack; SA- Constrict (Ex) (MMp8); Fear (Sp) - 30 ft. radius (MMp8); SQ- Damage Resistance 20/+2

D&D:  Denizens of The Dream may choose to do damage in "real" or "sanity" against the uninitiated. The initiated may use "sanity points" as a buffer against their hit points, but may not split the damage dealt by any single attack between the two.  

Example, A character may choose to take a claw's 6 points of damage from her "sanity points", but may not split the same damage between hit points and sanity.  The determination of where the damage will be received, should be made before the damage roll(s).

Foreign characters who die (from hit points or sanity loss) in The Dream are thrust back into the waking world with a temporary charisma of 0, and must await the progression (or healing) of ability score loss (see DMGp72). For more details, see The Dream.

Classed denizens of The Dream can be of almost any class, though there is a higher percentage of psionicists and magic-users than in the Waking World.

Jargath
Within The Dream of Sudul nothing is more welcome than the proliferate Jargath.  The Jargath are an ethereal race, existing only in The Dream and the restful and pleasuring dreams of the Waking World. The Jargath serve Jarjatha much as the Dagari serve Daggon (see above); except that instead of horrible agonized creatures, the Jargath are kind and hospitable.  Like the Dagari, the Jargath are ultimately servants of Sudul, and it is their duty to escort the uninitiated from The Dream.  Jargath escorts are much more pleasant.  The Jargath appear in many forms, usually choosing an image that is pleasing and calming to the viewer.  In battle however, these demons inadvertantly reveal a part of their more base nature, becoming avenging bloodthirtsty (thirsting for the blood of the Dagari) angels that are fearsome to behold, but always beautiful..  All Jargath employ the supernatural abilities of Charm (see DMGp73) and Incorporeality (see DMGpp77,78) at will.  Incorporeality has no effect in The Dream.  It is also notable that Jargath are represented in all challenge ratings.  Included below are some examples:

Jargath: CR 1; Medium Outsider (Chaotic, Good, Incorporeal); HD 1d8+1 (5); Init +3 (Dex); Spd 20 ft., fly 20 ft.
