[Back to creatures]

Martors are enormous, terrifying houndlike fae that are invisible to most creatures. While they look ferocious, they are not inherently violent. Every Martor shares a bond with a Parsor, and can be quite playful with its companion. But if the Parsor is ever threatened, the Martor will enact swift retribution.

Parsor Ward. All Martors have a Parsor with which they share a bond. So long as they are on the same plane of existence, they know each other’s location and can communicate telepathically.

Peerless Defender. The Martor gains +2 to attack and damage rolls if its bonded Parsor is within 30 ft of it.

Primal Rage. If the Martor’s bonded Parsor takes damage or dies within sight of the Martor, the Martor gains +5 bonus to attack and damage rolls for 10 turns and gains the Iron Will trait during this time.

Reactions
Growl (1/Round). If the Martor prepared its Growl reactive action since its last turn, when a creature first moves within 5 ft of the Martor, it may make a Bite attack.

Intercept (1/Round). If a creature makes a melee attack against the Martor’s bonded Parsor and is within 40 ft of the Martor, the Martor may reactively move to an unoccupied space adjacent to that creature. The attack hits the Martor instead, and the Martor can immediately make a reactive Bite attack for free.
