*** Commonly Summoned Creature Statblocks: Lantern Archon (SMIII):
Lantern Archon (Augmented) LG Small outsider (archon, extraplanar, good, lawful) Init +4; Senses darkvision 60 ft., low-light vision; Perception +4 Aura aura of menace (DC 13) ---------- AC 15, touch 11, flat-footed 15 (+4 natural, +1 size); +2 deflect vs evil hp 19 (2d10+6) Fort +6, Ref +3, Will +0; +4 vs poison, +2 resistance vs evil DR 10/evil; Immune electricity, petrification ---------- Speed fly 60 ft.

Any hostile creature within a 20-foot radius of an archon must succeed on a Will save to resist its effects. The save DC varies with the type of archon, is Charisma-based, and includes a +2 racial bonus. Those who fail take a –2 penalty on attacks, AC, and saves for 24 hours or until they successfully hit the archon that generated the aura. A creature that has resisted or broken the effect cannot be affected again by the same archon's aura for 24 hours. Gestalt (Su) Nine lantern archons can fuse together as a full-round action, becoming a single Large entity that is more powerful than the individual archons that make up its parts. Looking like a whirlwind of dancing firefly lights, the gestalt has all the powers and abilities of a Large air elemental plus the following: archon, good, and lawful subtypes; archon traits (aura of menace DC 16); 2 light rays (2d6); DR 5/evil and magic. The archons can remain in this form for 2d4 rounds. When the gestalt separates back into individual lantern archons, its remaining hit points are divided evenly among them; if it had less than 9 hit points, some of the component archons die when the gestalt ends.

If protected against fire damage, it can even glide through lava. Its burrowing leaves behind no tunnel or hole, nor does it create any ripple or other sign of its presence. A move earth spell cast on an area containing a burrowing earth elemental flings the elemental back 30 feet, stunning the creature for 1 round unless it succeeds on a DC 15 Fortitude save. Earth Mastery (Ex) An earth elemental gains a +1 bonus on attack and damage rolls if both it and its foe are touching the ground. If an opponent is airborne or waterborne, the elemental takes a –4 penalty on attack and damage rolls. These modifiers apply to bull rush and overrun maneuvers, whether the elemental is initiating or resisting these kinds of attacks. (These modifiers are not included in the statistics block.)

*** Background/Appearance/Personality:
Background
Nowzai was born in the kingdom of Qadira to a minor noble family. As the sixth son, he had very little chance of inheriting the family title, but his father was rich enough to pay for Nowzai's apprenticeship to a wizard in Nex. Unfortunately, Nowzai's mentor, the master summoner Galazahn, was strict, spiteful and worse of all, paranoid. Galazahn was slow to teach Nowzai, not because his apprentice was dimwitted, but because he was afraid Nowzai would surpass and ultimately murder him with his secrets. Nowzai tried several times to break from the apprenticeship, but neither Galazahn nor his father would support him, seeing such a move as a breach of contract and smear of honor. Despite this difficulty, Nowzai strongly respected Galazahn and his knowledge, and spent the many years of apprenticeship waiting patiently for his chance to learn. His time was spent in study of mundane lore, developing Nowzai a near-encyclopedic repertoire of information. Nowzai took pains to research and find hidden and obscure pieces of lore, especially for his love: the planar multiverse and its many iconic inhabitants. Just over three years ago, three tragic events befell Nowzai. The first was the death of his father, at nearly 80 years of age. His oldest brother, Nowzan, himself 61 years old, careless as he took control of the family after waiting so long, wastefully spent their modest hereditary fortune in a matter of months. Before anyone could put him in check, they were nearly destitute. At about the same time, Galazahn died, consumed by one of his own (paranoia-driven) spells of abjuration. Unfortunately for Nowzai, with his master went also the secret cyphers to unlock his extensive collection of arcane lore. 48 years old, with little money, and denied the legacy of his mentor, Nowzai left Galazahn's tower secured by his master's powerful magic wards and set out Absalom. A long trek from Nex, Nowzai nonetheless hoped he could find help there at the Arcanamirium to help unlock Galazahn's code - with that lore attained, he would be able to claim his master's place, and also earn a decent living. Nowzai never made it to Absalom... Appearance
Personality
Nowzai's great love is lore. He would trek to the far corners of Golarion if only to find a shred of lost or secret information. Nowzai finds solace in study and research, and will happily while away days in a newfound library. Nowzai is friendly and accommodating to everyone he meets, but his bookish nature usually works against him. He has few friends, and only counts his young sister, Laihl, as a close confidant. Since his death at the Lucky Monkey and subsequent resurrection, Nowzai has become notably more curious, but also more impatient.
