Also considering an idea where the Void Claimed will reform on the negative plane And giving them a minimum intelligence of 10. Thoughts so far though?Void ClaimedThe Void Claimed are among the most deadly of undead. They were thrown into the Void, through accident or purpose, and the Void destroyed them. They return to our world through the shadows, and lay waste to all life they touch. Thankfully they are rare, for if they weren’t, the lands of the living would be overrun with our dead.Boris Verhein – Hunter of the DamnedThe Void Claimed are creatures that have visited, through chance or act of their own, the Negative Energy Plane and were destroyed by its malevolence. They have returned through the shadows and Their skin is drawn tight and has become ashen, their eyes burn with black and blue flame, and their hands have become gnarled and clawed. Negative energy surrounds their bodies and radiates outward.Creating a Void ClaimedVoid Claimed is a template that can be added to any corporeal aberration, animal, beast, dragon, fey, giant, humanoid, magical beast, monstrous humanoid, Shapechanger, or Vermin that is not immune to the effects of negative energy (referred to hereafter as the “base creature”). The creature’s type changes to “undead.” It uses all the base creature’s statistics and special abilities except as noted here.Hit Dice: Increase to d12Speed: Void Claimed float at half of their former movement rate. In case of two different movement rates use the higher. They fly at perfect maneuverability. This is a supernatural ability. If a creature already has a flight ability use that.AC: +3 ACDamage: The Void Claimed have claw attacks. If the base creature does not have this attack form, use the damage values in the table below. Creatures with natural attacks retain their old damage ratings or use the values below, whichever is better. If the creature has no arms but does have a natural attack the damage may be substituted for the higher value on this table.Size            DamageFine             1Diminutive        1d2Tiny            1d3Small            1d4Medium        1d6Large            1d8Huge            2d6Gargantuan        2d8Colossal        3d6Special Attack: A Void Claimed retains all the base creature’s special attacks and also gains those listed below.Energy Drain (Su) Living creatures hit by a Void Claimed’s receive negative levels based on the table below.
