Darkvision
A monster with darkvision can see perfectly well in areas of darkness and dim light, though such vision is in black and white only. Some forms of magical darkness, such as a 4th-level Darkness spell, block normal darkvision. A monster with Greater Darkvision, however, can see through even these forms of magical darkness.
At-Will SpellsThe monster can cast its at-will spells any number of times without using up spell slots.
Constant SpellsA constant spell affects the monster without the monster needing to cast it, and its duration is unlimited. If a constant spell gets counteracted, the monster can reactivate it by spending the normal spellcasting actions the spell requires.
Free BladeTrigger The ghaele ends its turn while unable to act or attempts a greatsword Strike that would take a circumstance or status penalty.
Effect A ghaele's blade is implacable in the pursuit of freedom, and its energies can overpower any effect that would interfere with its swordplay.
The ghaele attempts to counteract each effect that prevents it from making a greatsword Strike, gives it a penalty to its greatsword Strike, or prevents it from acting.
The ghaele can use this ability even if it's otherwise unable to act.
Light FormA ghaele's body is partially corporeal and partially composed of light, with a color corresponding to the elemental energy currently residing in its blade (see Choose Weakness).
It can move through solid objects but can't end its action within a solid object.
Choose Weakness (concentrate, divination, divine, evocation, manipulate)A ghaele attempts to Recall Knowledge about a foe they are facing.
If successful, they can change the elemental damage dealt by their greatsword and light ray to acid, cold, electricity, fire, or sonic, usually to match the foe's weakness.
They can also change their energy resistance to any of these energy types (this can be a different type than for their attacks).
The choices remain until they next use.
Ghaele's Gaze (divine, evocation, visual)When a ghaele fixes their gaze upon a non-good creature, the creature is subjected to the effects of Divine Decree (DC 20 will save).
If it survives, the creature is temporarily immune to for 1 minute.
Greater Holy Blade (divine, evocation)Any weapon becomes a +3 Holy Greater Striking weapon while the ghaele wields it.

Traits
This rarity indicates that a rules element is very difficult to find in the game world. A rare feat, spell, item or the like is available to players only if the GM decides to include it in the game, typically through discovery during play. Creatures with this trait are rare. They typically can't be summoned. The DC of Recall Knowledge checks related to these creatures is increased by 5.
