by character class

These wicked predators dwell in the deep caverns of the Underdark. They are named for their gulping call, which emanates from their throats when excited. However, when alone and stalking their prey, they are eerily silent.

Glaurants are massive scaly demonic figures, complete with wings and horns. Standing over eight feet tall, each of their four limbs end in iron hard black talons, which aids them in their ability to climb. Their horns, however, are not immobile, as they are used to protect the Glaurants ears (+2 racial bonus to save against sonic attacks) and help navigate through narrow corridors.

Combat

The Glaurant is a relentless combatant, only abandoning its prey when threatened with death. Although they have an impressive array of natural attacks, most Glaurants favour engaging in combat with two weapons (usually masterwork at least). All Glaurant receive the ambidexterity and track feats for free as a ranger.

Rake (Ex): If the Glaurant scores two successful claw attacks against one opponent, it automatically inflicts an additional 2d6+4 points of damage from its rear claws.

Spell-like abilities (Sp): At will- Deeper Darkness as a 7th level Sorcerer, centred on self only.

Skills: The Glaurant has a +10 racial bonus to climb checks.

Deep Glaurant Characters: The Glaurants favoured class is the Ranger.
