Erinyes - Dungeons on Automatic Bestiary

Outsider (Baatezu, Evil, Lawful) · SM +0 Erinyes (Enraged Eggplant; answers SRD 3.5, SRD 5.1)

A striking figure in dark bronze lamellar with broad soot-black feathered wings, carrying a longsword and a bow whose arrows take fire in flight. It also carries a rope, which is the part to worry about: it prefers its quarry bound and delivered rather than killed.

EntangleEntangle (15): Each erinyes carries a stout rope some 50 feet long that entangles anyone it strikes. The erinyes uses Whip skill for this attack. It is treated as a melee attack with a range equal to the rope’s length, but not more than 20 yards. On a hit, the victim is grappled (see p. B370) and rooted in place. He cannot select the Move or Change Posture maneuvers or change facing, and is at -4 to DX. The ST of this effect is equal to 10. To break free, the victim must win a Quick Contest of ST or Escape skill against 10. Each attempt takes one second. If the victim fails to break free, he loses 1 FP but may try again. Alternatively, he may try to destroy the rope. Innate Attacks hit automatically; other attacks are at -4. External attacks on the rope take no penalty, but risk hitting the victim on a miss (see Striking Into a Close Combat, p. B392). The rope has DR 3. Each point of damage reduces ST by one. At ST 0, the rope is destroyed and the victim is freed.	15	Each erinyes carries a stout rope some 50 feet long that entangles anyone it strikes. The erinyes uses Whip skill for this attack.

Library-rebuilt template total: 423 points.
CER was computed from parsed Typical Stats using the Dungeons On Automatic baseline CER path.
Issue #5: 0 special ability construction(s) restored and 1 annotated with the source's stated cost. 1 save-or-disable construction(s) are scored through the affliction term at the source's stated point cost, or at Binding ST where the source builds the ability as a Binding.
CER recomputed from the reviewed Typical Stats through the canonical Dungeons on Automatic CER path: OR 26, PR 10, CER 36, threat tier standard.
Conversion baseline reported OR 17, PR 10, CER 27 (tier standard). The reviewed values come from the consumer CER implementation, which rounds damage once after the damage-type multiplier and credits ranged accuracy; the conversion baseline ceilinged the damage base first and ignored range.
Encounter metadata derived (default): average number appearing 2, wandering weight 3. Encounter metadata derived for 0.2.0 from the reviewed threat tier and creature class (appearing: minor 4 / standard 2 / major 1 / severe 1, forced to 1 for solitary classes — including swarms, which are a single multi-body creature — and raised to 6 for gregarious minor creatures; wandering weight: minor 4 / standard 3 / major 2 / severe 1). The fan-conversion source states no appearing-in-numbers or wandering values, so these are derived, not source mechanics.
Lair, treasure, and grappling remain unpopulated in 0.2.0 by package policy: the authorized fan-conversion source states no lair, treasure, or grappling values, and review declines to invent them. See review/policy/0.2.0-empty-field-policy.md.
Description text is original Dungeons on Automatic prose written from this record's own converted statistics and from the project's art direction for the creature. It is not derived from the authorized fan-conversion source, which states no creature descriptions, and not from any SRD. It carries its own authorship and CC BY 4.0 terms in the description field. See review/policy/description-policy.md.
Review approved by automated-mechanical-review on 2026-07-26 (batch ee-2026-07-26-b4-special-mechanics); GCS fidelity check passed, DOA playability check passed.
Special-mechanics record. Mechanics the CER path cannot price are named per record in review/reports/cer-audit.md rather than folded into the number, and encounter counts are capped where a save-or-disable attack is present.
