Hollyphant

Hollyphants were golden-furred, elephant-like creatures from the Upper Planes,   who acted as servants of the powers of good.

Description
A hollyphant's small tusks appeared to be made of ivory. Its golden fur, in its small form, seemed to glow. Because of an aura surrounding it, any good creature observing a hollyphant felt a fondness toward it, while any evil creature felt immediate loathing and fear.

Abilities
Hollyphants were both magical and psionic creatures. Their shimmering fur gave them invulnerability to spells of weaker power, while their tusks provided them with immunity to poison and diseases. They had several additional inherent magical abilities, including the ability to detect evil, banish outsiders, bless allies, create light, gate in allies from the Upper Planes, protect from evil, teleport, and call down a column of fire on their foes. A hollyphant also had several impressive healing abilities, including the power to raise the dead.

Beyond all these magical abilities, a hollyphant had a limited number of psionic powers as well.

Perhaps most uniquely, the hollyphant could use its trunk in a variety of ways, depending on what the hollyphant wanted. It could cause a trumpeting blast of intense, damaging, deafening sound, which could also stun its opponents, or it could shoot out a burst of positive energy particles, called "sun-sparkles". Sun-sparkles inflicted great damage on the undead or creatures from the Lower Planes.

Hollyphants could communicate with any creature by telepathy.

Personality
Hollyphants loved helping good creatures, did not care much for those of a neutral bent, and would actively seek to destroy evil beings.

Combat
In its small form, a hollyphant could gore with its upward-curving tusks, but since it was so little, this was not often effective. More likely it would use its powerful, magical trunk.

Society
Hollyphants served as messengers and helpers for the good deities. They often traveled the Etherial and Astral Planes. If sent to the Material Plane, they would appear in groups of one to three and almost always would be flying.

Among themselves, hollyphants had their own language.
