Feats

A nilshai is a stranger to the Material Plane and is almost always on a mission when encountered. It may be in search of a magic item, spying on local residents, or looking for intelligent humanoid slaves to carry off to its alien home. Whatever its purpose, it brooks no interference from denizens of the Material Plane. It uses its spells profligately, figuring that any threat deserves the quickest possible death. A common tactic against magic-using foes is to cast a spell and then ready a dispel magic to counterspell in the same round.
