CombatEdit

Celestial Giant Fire Beetles are quick to attack those they suspect to be evil. They usually fight in groups and try to use their numbers to flank opponents to boost their chances of hitting.

Smite Evil (Su): Once per day a celestial creature can make a normal melee attack to deal extra damage equal to its HD (maximum of +20) against an evil foe.
