Abilities & Attacks
Saving Throws: +1 status to all saves vs. magic Painsight (divine). A velstrac automatically knows whether a creature it sees has any of the Doomed, Dying, and Wounded conditions as well as the value of those conditions. +1 Status to All Saves vs. Magic Regeneration 10 (Deactivated by Holy or Silver). This monster regains the listed number of Hit Points each round at the beginning of its turn. Its Dying condition never increases beyond Dying 3 as long as its regeneration is active. However, if it takes damage of a type listed in the regeneration entry, its regeneration deactivates until the end of its next turn. Deactivate the regeneration before applying any damage of a listed type, since that damage might kill the monster by bringing it to Dying 4. Reactive Strike (reaction). Trigger A creature within the monster's reach uses a manipulate action or a move action, makes a ranged attack, or leaves a square during a move action it's using. Effect The monster attempts a melee Strike against the triggering creature. If the attack is a critical hit and the trigger was a manipulate action, the monster disrupts that action. This Strike doesn't count toward the monster's multiple attack penalty, and its multiple attack penalty doesn't apply to this Strike. Unnerving Gaze (aura, divine, fear, mental, visual). 30 feet. When a creature ends its turn in the aura, it sees the face of a departed loved one in place of the evangelist's face. The creature must succeed at a DC 21 Will save or become Frightened 2 (Frightened 3 on a critical failure). Focus Gaze (1 action) (concentrate, divine, fear, visual). The evangelist stares at a creature they can see within 30 feet. The target must immediately attempt a DC 21 Will save against unnerving gaze. In addition, if the creature was already Frightened, on a failed save, the evangelist is Concealed from the creature for as long as the creature remains frightened. After attempting this save, the creature is then temporarily immune to Focus Gaze until the start of the evangelist's next turn. Grievous Wound. When the evangelist critically hits with a morningstar Strike, the target's wound is particularly gruesome and disorienting. The creature becomes Clumsy 1, and the DC to recover from its persistent bleed damage is 17 (DC 12 when receiving especially appropriate assistance). The clumsy condition doesn't end until the creature recovers from its persistent bleed. Unleash Weapon (2 actions). The evangelist releases their morningstar and commands the augur trapped within to attack. The weapon flies off and the evangelist makes up to two morningstar Strikes, each against a different target within 20 feet. These attacks count against the evangelist's multiple attack penalty, but the multiple attack penalty doesn't increase until after all the attacks. The morningstar then returns to the evangelist's hand.
