Combat

Solars are puissant champions of good. Only the most powerful fiends approach their power.

Even more fearsome than their +5 dancing greatsword are their +2 composite longbow that create any sort of slaying arrow when drawn.

A solar’s natural weapons, as well as any weapons it wields, are treated as good-aligned and epic for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.

Regeneration (Ex): A solar takes normal damage from epic evil-aligned weapons, and from spells or effects with the evil descriptor.
