However, shouldn't the Special Attack have something more slothful? e.g. instead of rending, simply have the sloth cling to the target. Clinging prevents any use of the limb clung to - thus spellcasters cannot employ a gesture using that hand and two-handed weapons cannot be used. The victim may attempt to shake the sloth off, but any attack on the sloth has a 50% of hitting the victim instead. The sloth still gets a normal attack and so may eventually wear down the victim.
Sloths will sometimes cling to a branch by digging their claws deep into the branch. This should be reflected in both damage and the difficulty in shaking the sloth off. And since it's a celestial being, infernal (or maybe all evil) beings should sustain extra damage for every round the sloth is clinging to them.

For the record, Nale's and Sabine's relationship is one of my favorite things in OOTS, and this comic is no exception. Petulant Nale is always awesome. "You never respect my process!"
Technically all speed is done in increments of 10 feet, so... unless it never moves, the slowest speed is 10 feet as 0 feet is the next speed down and 0 feet means never moving. Instead the fact it can only make a single action was used to infer its slowness. Also, all I actually did was dig up the D&D stats for a sloth and then added the standard Celestial Template to the Sloth. About the biggest statistical changes were the extra HD.
So Sabine somehow failed a Will Save? She's a Succubus, right? I recall their Will Saves being very high, and if that was Minor Image, she somehow failed-at best- a DC 18 Will Save? And that's being generous because I'm claiming that Elan has a +6 to his Charisma. I'm very disappointed in her, especially considering the penalty Elan would have with something that silly? Hehehe.

...She has a +7, plus maybe a minor boost from class levels with weak will save progression.
Okay, so at least a +10 due to class levels? That's at least half the die. I was just saying that she seems to be pretty weaksauce in a Save which should technically be one of her stronger qualities.
