SRD:Augmented Subtype

This material is published under the OGL

Augmented Subtype

A creature receives this subtype whenever something happens to change its original type. Some creatures (those with an inherited template) are born with this subtype; others acquire it when they take on an acquired template. The augmented subtype is always paired with the creature’s original type. A creature with the augmented subtype usually has the traits of its current type, but the features of its original type.

Homebrew templates granting this type appear below. These are not part of the SRD, and are presented for ease of reference only.

Template	Description	CR Adjustment
Corpseblood Gel	They look normal on the outside, but they are little more than bags of slime wearing the skin of a person.
Fossil	A fossil creature is a dinosaur, or prehistoric animal, revived by druidic transmutation magic. Three categories of fossil creatures exist: Amber Fossils, Rock Fossils and Tar Fossils.
Love Lich	The love lich is a very rare creature, yet despite its name it is neither an undead nor a true lich. Love liches are beings powered by intense love, to the point that even death can't stop them.
Rage Lich	The rage lich is consumed by wrath to a point that not even death itself can stop them crawling out of hell to destroy their foes.
Robotic	This template turns an organic creature into a robot.
