#### special abilities
### Caustic Blood (Ex)
A quth-maren's blood is highly acidic. A creature that deals piercing or slashing damage to a quth-maren as part of a melee attack with a natural weapon or unarmed strike must succeed at a DC 17 Reflex saving throw or take 1d6 points of acid damage. A creature that deals piercing or slashing damage to a quth-maren with a melee weapon must succeed at a DC 17 Reflex saving throw or the weapon takes 1d6 points of acid damage (objects take full damage from this acid); if this damage exceeds the weapon's hardness, the weapon gains the broken condition. The save DC is Charisma-based.
### Channel Energy (Su)
A quth-maren can channel negative energy as a 5th-level cleric.
### Horrifying Gaze (Su)
A living creature within 30 feet that meets a quth-maren's deathless gaze must succeed on a Will save (DC 17) or cower in fear. Cowering creatures lose their Dexterity bonus to Armor Class (if any) and can take no actions. Foes gain a +2 bonus on attack rolls to hit cowering characters.
### Spit Blood (Ex)
Once every 1d4 rounds, as a standard action, a quth-maren can spit a glob of its acidic blood as a grenadelike weapon attack. The quth-maren must make a ranged touch attack to hit its target. This attack has a range increment of 10 feet, with a maximum range of five range increments. The glob deals 2d6 points of acid damage on a direct hit, and 2 points of acid damage to all creatures within 5 feet of where it lands.

**Terrain** Underground
**Organization** Solitary, pair, or gang (3–6)

A quth-maren is a revolting undead creature created byclerics of Kiaransalee. These clerics are fond of flayingtheir enemies—removing every scrap of skin—and thenanimating them in this hideous form.A quth-maren appears in the overall form it had in life, butit has no skin or exposed fat—just muscles over its skeleton.Caustic blood constantly oozes from its body. Unlike zom-bies, to which they bear a certain resemblance, quth-marensare neither mindless nor prone to decomposition.
