Snarling and spitting, this small figure looks like a hateful
old man, his face wrinkled like month-old fruit. the bent,
three-foot-tall cretin wields a scythe nearly double his size in his gnarled
hands, and wears a pair of overly large spiked iron boots. Upon his
grizzled head sits a bent hat, gruesomely stained bright crimson.
(small fey) Hit die: 7d6+8 (38hp) Init: 8 Speed: 60 AC: 18 (Dex +4, Natural +4) AC flat footed :17 , AC Touch: 14 BAB3 CMB 6/ CMD 20 Attack: Medium Scythe +7 (2d6+6) CRIT(17-20) + poison DC16 (paralyzed) Boot Stomp: 1d6 counts as spring attack. Space/Reach: 5/5 Special Attacks: Poison DC(16) 2d4 doses of poison, Sneak Attack +3d6 Stealth check DC= Perception, Spell-like Abilities 1/day daze (DC16), darkness (DC16) Tactics Lone redcaps try to wear down their opponents by using their boot stomp ability to make a series of hit-and-run attacks. Groups, however, are much more bold, swarming larger foes and slicing them to shreds with their terrible scythes. Bloodthirsty creatures, redcaps fight until they are barely able, fleeing only if reduced below 5 hit points.
SQ: SR 15 DR(5)(10)/ cold iron, Darkvision 60, Immunity to poison, weapons treated as magical, ER 10 Acid/ Cold/ Elec/ Fire, Saves: Fort +3, Ref +7, Will +5 Abilities: Str 18, Dex 18, Con 14, Int 11, Wis 11, Chr 8 Skills: Acrobatics +10, Bluff +13, Escaper Artist +15, Stealth +12, Perception +10, Survival +10, Languages: Sylvan (fey) Feats: Cleave, Improved Initiative, Weapon Focus (scythe), Improved Crit Red Cap (Su) A redcap wears a tiny, shapeless woolen hat, dyed over and over with the blood of its victims. While wearing its cap, a redcap gains a +4 bonus on damage rolls and fast healing 3 (reflected above). These benefits are lost if the cap is removed or destroyed, and caps are not transferable, even between redcaps. A redcap can create a new cap to replace a lost cap with 10 minutes of work, although until the redcap can take a standard action to dip the cap in the blood of a foe the recap helped kill, it does not grant its bonuses. Removing a red caps hat makes it staggered and slowed. The redcap must make a DC 15 Will save or will not do anything but try to retrieve its cap. Destroying a redcaps hat will cause to be stunned for 1d4 rounds as it howls in agony.
