[edit] CELESTIAL GIANT FIRE BEETLE
Note: The rules for applying the Celestial and Fiendish templates do not accurately describe what to do about feats when giving a mindless creature such as vermin an intelligence score. The first creature presented here was given preselected feats. The second was given no feats. It is up to the DM to choose one of the following:
- Allow a summoning player to pick the feats
- Use the creature with the selected feats presented here
- Use the featless version of the creature presented here
- Choose feats herself
The feats selected here are chosen to give the creature as much power as possible without straying too far from the theme of the creature. If you disagree with these choices, please discuss them on the talk page.

These insects have been touched with celestial heritage. Their white carapaces are embroidered with gold patterns that illuminate an area with a 20-foot radius. The luminosity of the husks lasts for 1d6 days after removal from the beetle.
[edit] Combat
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.
