In the city of golden death there is a new template.
rebuild rule: alignment changes to NE;
senses: gains darkvision 60ft.;
aura: fear ( as fear spell, 20ft.,
will save dc 10 + 1/2 terror creature's
racial HD + creature's CHA mod);
defensive abilities: negative energy absorption;
immune : fear effects
Now if you make the save are you immune the effects of the aura of fear, or do you have to keep making the save every round you are in the aura? If you have to keep making the save that is kind of messed up.
I would guess that whether the save is successful or not, the character cannot be affected by the same terror creature's aura of fear for 24 hours, based on how similar always-active and at-will abilities work on other creatures. (For example, a mummy's Despair ability.)

The only thing about that is all the other abilities specifically say they grant immunity for 24 hours where as this one does not. Was it left out on purpose or do we need errata?
Bump.
The devil's in the details, and assumptions aside, this one sounds really bad without being clarified.
Once you save against a terror creature's fear effect, you're immune to that fear effect from that terror creature for 24 hours.
If it continuously causes fear, not only is that annoying, but it should probably bump the CR bonus by +1.
Thanks for that information, James, because i was going to either rule it either way. i just wanted some clarification on the issue.
