Ghost Pirate Captain
A drowned tyrant never gave up the wheel, still haunting the wreck where he died and cursing everyone nearby the moment he finally falls.
A drowned tyrant who never gave up the wheel, the ghost pirate captain haunts the wreck or stretch of coast where they met their end, still commanding a crew long gone to the deep. Sinking the ship doesn't end them — only breaking the bond that holds them does.
In play
Curse Ye Scallywags! (curse, divine, necromancy) When the ghost pirate captain is reduced to 0 HP, all creatures within 60 feet are subjected to a DC 25 mariner's curse spell. The locations of those that critically fail are known to the ghost until the curse is removed. This curse ends if the ghost is permanently destroyed.
Rejuvenation (divine, necromancy) When the ghost pirate captain is destroyed, they re-form after 2d4 days within the ship or location they're bound to, fully healed.
