[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 9063396, member: 2209"] [URL=https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/325328/War-of-the-Burning-Sky-5E-9-The-Festival-of-Dreams?affiliate_id=17596]War of the Burning Sky 5E #9: The Festival of Dreams[/URL] 5e [b]Aurana Kiirobel, Vampire, Vizier, Sorceress, Most Powerful Servant:[/b] ? [b]Gabal, Dread Wraith, Undead Horror, Overwhelmingly Straightforward Opponent:[/b] Through a powerful ritual, inquisitors called back Gabal’s soul and transformed it into a dread wraith which still possesses the abilities the archmage had in life, but is firmly under the control of the Ragesians. [b]Squad of Skeletons:[/b] ? [b]Specter:[/b] They are unlikely to be a threat to the heroes, but if not stopped they will ruin the defenses, for the wraiths replenish their specters from the fallen defenders and kill everyone in a squad before moving on. When Gabal’s magic mouth taunts the intruders, the wraiths will attack the prisoners, turning them into specters, so that the entire gathering of prisoners will be turned into twisted undead horrors. At the sounds of combat, the prisoners begin crying out to be rescued, and the wraiths enter the cells. The wraiths act on initiative count 0 (losing ties). They each alternate between killing a prisoner on one turn and raising the victim as a specter on the next turn. When he is reduced below 35 hit points, Gabal fires one final spell in spite, and flies up through the ceiling into the fourth floor. There he shatters the mirror of life trapping and proceeds to strike at the prisoners while they are too stunned to react. He uses an action to kill one helpless prisoner before raising it as a specter on his next turn, although Vigilance will escape his grasp. Gabal's Create Specter power. Wraith Create Specter power. [b]Wraith:[/b] The newly undead Gabal has created wraiths as spawn, and they wait near the cells on the first floor. [b]Squad of Skeletons, Quick Horror:[/b] ? [b]Specter, Twisted Undead Horror:[/b] ? [b]Skulking Wraith:[/b] ? [b]Undead Veteran Inquisitor:[/b] ? [b]Undead Horror:[/b] ? [b]Vampire Spawn:[/b] A humanoid slain in this way [by Aurana Kiirobel's bite attack] and then buried in the ground rises the following night as a vampire spawn under Aurana’s control. [b]Ghost:[/b] ? Create Specter. Gabal targets a humanoid within 10 feet of him that has been dead for no longer than 1 minute and died violently. The target’s spirit rises as a specter in the space of its corpse or in the nearest unoccupied space. The specter is under Gabal’s control. Gabal can have no more than seven specters under his control at one time. Create Specter.
