[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 6919291, member: 2209"] [b]Oathbound Bestiary[/b] [URL=http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/95099/Oathbound-Bestiary?affiliate_id=17596]Oathbound Bestiary[/URL] Pathfinder 1e [b]Lector:[/b] It is not entirely known how a lector forms, though it is believed that a lector is created when an ordinary skeletal undead creature comes into contact with a powerful evil object. [b]Lector Old:[/b] ? [b]Lector Venerable:[/b] ? [b]Mirajii Newborn:[/b] Victims whose Constitution scores are reduced to zero by means of a mirajii’s ability drain become full powered mirajiis the following dusk. Such a change is permanent and can only be reversed by a wish or miracle followed by a true resurrection. [b]Mirajii:[/b] Newly spawned mirajiis retain their living resemblance for about one week, after which they quickly take on their true form. [b]Mirajii Blademaster:[/b] ? [b]Nightsong Apparition Despondent:[/b] ? [b]Nightsong Apparition:[/b] Nightsong apparitions are the tortured spirits of hosshin driven to madness and suicide by the loss of connection with their god on being drawn into the Forge. Their anguish is so profound that their spirits know no rest and continue on in misery, unable to pass on to the next world. [b]Nightsong Apparition Wrathful:[/b] ? [b]Ruin Zombie:[/b] A ruin zombie is the animated corpse of someone who has died a horrible death in the undercity of Penance—and not a quick or painless death in any case, but one where the victim suffered a ghastly end. This category includes, but is by no means limited to, suffocation, starvation, drowning, torture, immolation, and mutilation. The intense anguish felt by the victim in the final moments of life acts as a catalyst for the extraordinary magic of the maze, transforming the newly-deceased creature to an undead being that rises again to wreak havoc on the living, who they now despise with every fiber of their being. [b]Greater Ruin Zombie Wizard:[/b] ? [b]Greater Ruin Zombie Bard:[/b] ? [b]Skeletal Ravager:[/b] Skeletal ravagers are a powerful form of undead, first created by the Spectral Hand, a necromantic organization originating in The Vault. These monstrosities can be built from the skeletal remains of any sentient being (almost all are humanoid due to availability of parts), and are imbued with large quantities of negative energy. [b]Skeletal Ravager Maddened:[/b] ? [b]Skeletal Ravager Greater:[/b] ? [b]Wisp:[/b] Wisps are the souls of lost, abused, or neglected children who seek companionship. Such spirits sometimes remain behind because they want to be loved so badly that they cannot rest until they find affection, and because at their young age, they may not yet believe strongly in a religion so as to encourage their passing on. Such spirits become wisps, merging with the material of their surrounding environment in order to fulfill their last desire. [b]Mist Wisp:[/b] ? [b]Sand Wisp:[/b] ? [b]Water Wisp:[/b] ? [/QUOTE]
