Editing Caliban

In the /tg/ sense, Caliban can refer to either of three things; a planet in [[Warhammer 40000]], a race in [[Ravenloft]], or a monster in [[Pathfinder]].

*[[Caliban (Warhammer 40,000)]]
*[[Caliban (Ravenloft)]]

The [[Pathfinder]] Caliban is a deformed, [[ogre]]-like Monstrous Humanoid introduced in the adventure module "Tears at Bitter Manor" and subsequently forgotten. Possessed of the ability to temporarily [[fleshcrafting|inflict crippling deformities with its touch]] and to produce an unsettling scream, as well as being tough, brawny and surprisingly mobile (Athletic & Nimble Moves feats, Swim 20ft), they are technically the male counterpart to [[Golarion]] [[Changeling]]s: [[hag]] covens use twisted ritual magics to create calibans as monstrous minions; these "[[hagspawn|sons of hags]]" are brought up to be steadfastedly loyal to their malevolent and oft-abusive matriarchs, serving them as grunt labor. Still, they aren't inherently evil, and occasionally break away, but their deformed appearance means they find no place in conventional society as a general rule. Unlike changelings, calibans are sterile; only hag rituals can produce new ones.
