Combat: A demon boar attacks by goring its victims with its sharp tusks for 2d6 points of damage. Further, a demon boar is able to employ a very powerful charm as a spell-like ability; men, demi-humans, and humanoids are subject to this ability, saving against it with a -2 penalty. Those that fail a saving throw will obey the demon boar without question, even to the point of attacking former allies or violating their own alignment if commanded to do so. A demon boar can have a maximum of 3 such charmed mortals under his command at any one time.

Normal weapons do no harm to a demon boar. Silver and magical weapons, however, score the usual damage against them. They see at night by infravision to a range of 6".

Description: These shape changers appear as great boars or grossly corpulent men with slightly swinish features (small piggish eyes, large ears, heavy jowls, thick limbs, vast bellies, etc.). They are typically encountered near isolated human settlements, where they hunt men that wander too far into the wilderness. Although they will eat any type of flesh, they relish the flesh of intelligent, mortal beings, and will do much to gain it. They typically seek to waylay their victims, relishing the sudden fear generated when attacking from ambuscade. At night a demon boar can shape change freely, assuming human or swine form at will. However, from morning until night they remain in whatever form they were in when the light of the sun begins to shine. Statistics above are given for the swine form; they will have the stats of large, strong men when in human form.
