===Racial Traits=== 

* {{Property Link|Racial Ability Adjustments|SRD:Strength|+2 Strength}}, {{Property Link|Racial Ability Adjustments|SRD:Dexterity|+2 Dexterity}}, {{Property Link|Racial Ability Adjustments|SRD:Constitution|+2 Constitution}}:  Their bodies are physically tough, nimble, and strong from an eternity of endless torment upon itself and upon others.
* [[Type::Outsider]] ([[Subtype::Evil]], [[Subtype::Extraplanar]], [[Subtype::Lawful]]):  Kytons are composed of the essence of law and evil.  They are native to the plane of shadow and to baator.
* [[Size::Medium]]:  As Medium creatures lesser kytons have no benefits or penalties due to size.
* Lesser Kyton [[SRD:Base Land Speed|base land speed]] is 30 feet.
* Lesser Kytons are proficient in spiked chains.
* Chain Armor ([[Ex]]):  Lesser Kytons are surrounded in living chains, which grants them a +2 armor bonus, with no maximum dex or armor check penalty, and 5% arcane spell failure.  They may take warforged armor feats, applying the changes for use on their chain armor.  The chain armor does not count as armor for the effect of class features or similar, but may be enhanced as if a suit of armor.  At 6 HD, the armor bonus provided by the armor increases by +1, and at 12 HD it increases by +1 again.
* Cold Resistance ([[Ex]]):  When a lesser kyton starts they have no resistance to cold.  At 3 HD they gain cold resistance 5.  At 6 HD this rises to cold resistance 10.  At 9 HD this becomes cold resistance 15.  At 12 HD it becomes cold resistance 20.  At 15 HD and above the kyton becomes immune to cold damage.
* Dancing Chains ([[Su]]):  A lesser kyton can cause chains or flexible objects such as whips to animate.  Rather than making an attack from its position, it can animate a chain-type weapon in 20 feet and attack with it as if they were standing at the location of the chain.  They may only animate one such chain at a time, and the chain makes a single attack at their highest attack bonus.  When their BAB reaches +6, they may animate a second chain.  At BAB +11 they may animate a third chain.  At BAB +16 they may animate a forth chain.  Each chain only makes a single attack, but it is at their highest attack bonus.  For this reason, kytons often come wearing multiple chains, so they may scatter them around the battlefield and attack anyone at any time with the various chains on the ground.  Animating a chain is an attack action.  They may animate chains they hold, but attempting to animate a chain attended by another invokes a [[Will]] save DC 10 + 1/2 HD + [[Charisma]] to negate the attempt.
* Fiendish Healing ([[Ex]]):  Lesser Kytons have fast healing 1, allowing them to recover from their violent activities.  At 5 HD it becomes fast healing 2.  At 10 HD, the fast healing 2 becomes regeneration, bypassed by good weapons and spells and silvered weapons.  Unlike normal regeneration, they may still be successfully coup de graced by any attack if they have been rendered helpless.  At 15 HD, this weakness is removed, giving it normal regeneration and requiring a good or silver attack to coup de grace or kill.
* Sadomasochistic ([[Ex]]):  Kytons take pleasure in pain, and are thus immune to any effects which operate using pain, such as a ''[[SRD:Symbol of Pain|symbol of pain]]'' spell.
* [[SRD:Automatic Languages|Automatic Languages]]: Common and Infernal.
* [[SRD:Bonus Languages|Bonus Languages]]: Abyssal, Celestial, Dwarven, Elven, Gnoll, Gnome, Halfling, and Undercommon.
* [[SRD:Favored Class|Favored Class]]: {{Property Link|Favored Class|SRD:Ranger|Ranger}}
* [[Level Adjustment]]: +[[Level Adjustment::1]] 
* [[ECL|Effective Character Level]]: [[Effective Character Level::2]]
