Fossergrim

The fossegrim (note the difference in spelling) is, in norse mythology, a kind of male nixie that lives in waterfalls, plays harp and/or fiddle so beautifully that it would either lure people to drown or make trees, furnitures and cutlery dance. He would teach his musical skills to visitors performing ridiculous rituals such as giving him a food offering of a stolen smoked mutton plate four Thursdays in a row, and would have probably made a pretty good D&D monster.
The fossergrim is a boring Fey creature from 1e Deities and Demigods with no Perform skill who never misses his attacks when near its home waterfall. As always when looking at a disappointing adaptation of a mythological monster, Pathfinder did it better.

- Medium 5 RHD human-shaped amphibious Fey
- +4 Str, +6 Dex, +6 Con, +2 Int, +4 Wis, +8 Cha, +0 NA. Excellent stats all-around for a Fey with this number of RHD.
- 30ft land speed, 60ft swim.
- Permanent True Strike, Fast Healing 5 and SR 15 when inside its waterfall, dies in less than a day when more than 1,000 ft from it. This ability is obviously removed for a PC Fossergrim.

Soooo. Literally no ability when adventuring away from its waterfall (the original thread assumed Fast Healing and SR functioned in any kind of water. This is wrong and specified to only work near the splashing water of the one waterfall), but stellar ability scores. Meh, 4 RHD, DLA-1. Choose any class, you have the ability scores to make it work. Paladin seems like a pretty good choice. It would probably be LA+2 or +3 if it always counted as being in its waterfall. Next time, we continue with another regular animal from an Outer Plane : the Gathra.
