Planetars serve as mighty generals of celestial armies. They also help powerful mortal on missions of good, particularly those that involve battles with fiends. A planetar is nearly 9 feet tall and weighs about 500 pounds.
COMBAT
Despite their vast array of magical powers, planetars are likely to wade into melee with their +3 vorpal greatswords. They particularly enjoy fighting fiends.
A planetar’s natural weapons, as well as any weapon it wields, are treated as good-aligned and magic for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction. Their vorpal greatswords will be either silver (for chaotic good planetars) or cold forged iron (for lawful good planetars), or a 50% chance of either (for a neutral good planetar).
Regeneration (Ex): A planetars takes normal damage from magic evil-algined weapons and from spells or effects with the evil descriptor.
