Abilities & Attacks
Aura of Reflection (aura, divine, holy, mental, visual). 60 feet. The ninkonda's mirror reflects the weaknesses in creatures' souls. A creature that enters or starts its turn in the aura must succeed at a DC 36 Will save or be Dazzled and take a –2 penalty to Will saves against the ninkonda's abilities for 1 round. 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. Reflect Spell (reaction). Trigger The ninkonda is targeted by a ranged spell attack. Effect The ninkonda attempts to reflect the spell with the mirror in their armor. They gain a +4 circumstance bonus to AC against the triggering attack. If the attack misses, the spell is reflected back at the caster, who must roll a second ranged spell attack against their own AC to determine if the spell hits them instead. Nail Barrage (2 actions) (divine). The ninkonda sprays a mass of nails that deal 14d8 piercing damage in a 20-foot emanation with a DC 38 basic Reflex save. They can't use Nail Barrage again for 1d4 rounds. Soul Reflection (1 action) (divine, holy, mental, visual). The ninkonda aims the mirror in their armor at a creature Dazzled by their aura of reflection to force the creature to gaze upon its past sins. The creature must succeed at a DC 38 Will save or become Slowed 1 for 1 round as it reflects upon its actions (or 1 minute on a critical failure, as the creature's actions continue to weigh on it). A holy creature or a morally upstanding creature (as determined by the GM) uses the outcome that is one degree of success better than it rolled on its save. A creature that fails its save is then temporarily immune to Soul Reflection for 1 minute.
