Phantom stalkers live in the Elemental Planes of Fire. In its true form, a phantom stalker appears as a column of fire. It can take a humanshaped form, appearing as a muscular, fiery red humanoid about 8 feet tall. A phantom stalker rarely enters the Material Plane on its own. If encountered, it is usually in the employ of a spellcaster that has summoned it there to do his bidding. A phantom stalker can be summoned using a summon monster IV spell.
A phantom stalker is 6 feet tall and weighs about 180 pounds.
A phantom stalker attacks with its claws, attempting to grab its opponent and pull it into its body.
