Caligni Defender
This grim sentinel of the deep places would rather burn to ash than be captured, turning even its own death into a final weapon.
A caligni defender stands as the dark folk's bulwark, a grim sentinel who guards the deep settlements and would rather burn to ash than be taken. Even its death is a weapon turned against the living.
Its shortsword strike carries black smear poison.
In play
Bravery When the caligni defender rolls a success on a Will save against a fear effect, they get a critical success instead. In addition, any time they gain the frightened condition, reduce its value by 1.
Death Flame (light) When the caligni defender dies, their body combusts in a flash of white-hot flame. All creatures in a 20-foot burst take 6d10 fire damage (DC 26 basic Reflex save). Their gear and treasure are unaffected by the flames and are left in a pile where they died.
