Consume Life (Su)
When a nabasu creates a ghoul with its gaze attack, it gains a growth point. It gains a bonus equal to its growth point total on attack rolls, CMB rolls, saving throws, caster level checks, and skill checks. Its maximum hit points increase by 10 for each growth point, and its caster level for spell-like abilities increases by 1. For every 2 growth points, its natural armor bonus, SR, and CR increase by 1. Every time it gains a growth point it makes a DC 30 caster level check-success indicates it matures (gaining both the advanced and the giant simple templates) and plane shifts to the Abyss in a burst of smoke. A nabasu can have a maximum of 20 growth points-it automatically matures if it has not done so already when it reaches 20 growth points.
Special
Death-Stealing Gaze (Su)
As a free action once per day per growth point (minimum of 1/day), a nabasu can activate its death-stealing gaze for a full round. All living creatures within 30 feet must succeed on a DC 18 Fortitude save or gain a negative level. A humanoid slain in this manner immediately transforms into a ghoul under the nabasu's control. A nabasu's gaze can only create one ghoul per round-if multiple humans perish from the gaze in a round, the nabasu picks which human becomes a ghoul. The save DC is Charisma-based.

Actions/Abilities/Traits: Pathfinder 1e
The horned head of the nabasu has a cruel and vaguely humanoid face that appears trapped in a constant state of rage and pain. Its ever-pervasive, glowing golden stare is known to strike its foes dead at its mere gaze. Their bodies are tall and wire thin, with gray reptilian skin and large leathery wings and spindly arms that end in hooked razor-sharp talons.
The majority of nabasu encountered outside of the Abyss are nabasu demonlings. These proud creations of the demon lords are sent to the Material Plane to feast on the souls of the innocent until they reach maturity and can re-enter the Abyss on their own. Once there, they devour the physical hearts and mortal souls of their prey, growing stronger and deadlier with each third victim they destroy. Nabasu derive great pleasure from torturing and killing other creatures.
