Abilities & Attacks
Lifesense 120 feet. Lifesense allows a monster to sense the vital essence of living and undead creatures within the listed range. The sense can distinguish between the vitality energy animating living creatures and the void energy animating undead creatures, much as sight distinguishes colors. Constant Spells. A constant spell affects the monster without the monster needing to cast it, and its duration is unlimited. If a constant spell gets counteracted, the monster can reactivate it by spending the normal spellcasting actions the spell requires. Mend Soul (1 action) (manipulate). Frequency once per round. Effect The eseneth restores 25 healing HP to itself or an incorporeal creature it has Grabbed. Seize Soul (1 action) (attack, incapacitation). Requirements The eseneth has a corporeal creature Grabbed or Restrained. Effect The eseneth tries to yank the soul out of the required creature. The eseneth attempts an Athletics check against the target's Fortitude DC. Critical Success The eseneth grabs the target's soul. The body is released and is Paralyzed for 2 rounds. When the body ceases being paralyzed, its soul returns instantly, and the target wakes. The soul—grabbed by the eseneth—is incorporeal, is Invisible, has a fly Speed equal to the creature's Speed, and otherwise has all the same statistics. It can't attack, cast spells, or attempt any skill checks that require a physical body other than checks to Escape (DC 38), and it must always maintain line of effect to its body. Success As critical success, but the paralysis ends after 1 round. Failure The target remains grabbed or restrained, but its soul remains in its body. Critical Failure The target is no longer grabbed or restrained. Shepherd's Touch. A eseneth's Strikes affect incorporeal creatures with the effects of a Ghost Touch property rune and deal 2d6 void damage to living creatures and 2d6 vitality damage to undead. Shred Soul (1 action). Frequency once per round. Requirements The eseneth has an incorporeal creature Grabbed or Restrained. Effect The eseneth deals 3d10+14 force damage to the required creature. Spirit Grasp. An eseneth can Grapple incorporeal creatures despite being corporeal. The eseneth uses Athletics to Grapple incorporeal creatures as normal but can't use Athletics for other actions against incorporeal creatures, like Shove or Trip. Improved Grab (free action). Trigger The monster's last action was a successful Strike that lists Improved Grab in its damage entry, or the monster has a creature Grabbed or Restrained. Effect If used after a Strike, the monster attempts to Grapple the creature using the body part it attacked with as a free action. This attempt neither applies nor counts toward the creature's multiple attack penalty. The monster can instead use Improved Grab as an action and choose one creature it's grabbing or restraining with an appendage that has Improved Grab to automatically extend that condition to the end of the monster's next turn.
