This glistening, blood-red skin raises horns the color of bloodied bones from your forehead.

When activated, a skin of fiendish embrace grants you the following abilities for 15 rounds (if you already have any of these abilities, use your own values if higher):

• Damage reduction 10/magic.
• Darkvision 60 feet.
• Batlike wings that allow you to fly at your base land speed with average maneuverability.
• Claws: Two primary claw attacks that each deal 1d6 points of damage (assuming you are Medium).
• Immunity to poison.
• Resistance to acid 10, cold 10, electricity 10, and fire 10.
• Smite Good (Su): Once during the skin’s duration, you can attempt a normal melee attack to deal an extra 15 points of damage against a good foe. If you accidentally smite a creature that is not good, or if your smite attack misses, the smite has no effect, but the ability is still used up for that day.
• Spell resistance 25.

A skin of fiendish embrace functions once per day. At the end of its duration, it falls dormant until the following dawn.

Prerequisites: Craft Wondrous Item, infernal transformation (SC 122) or planar embrace (CP 94).
