Mohrgs

Undead: Undead are once-living creatures animated by spiritual or supernatural forces.

They have darkvision.

Undead have immunity to all mind-affecting effects (charms, compulsions, morale effects, patterns, and phantasms).

They have immunity to bleed, death effects, disease, paralysis, poison, sleep effects, and stunning.

Undead are not subject to nonlethal damage, ability drain, or energy drain.

They are immune to damage to their physical ability scores, as well as to exhaustion and fatigue effects.

Unintelligent undead cannot heal damage on their own, although they can be healed. Negative energy (such as an inflict spell) can heal undead creatures. Unintelligent undead can still have the fast healing special quality.

They have immunity to any effect that requires a Fortitude save (unless the effect also works on objects or is harmless).

Undead are not at risk of death from massive damage, but are immediately destroyed when reduced to 0 hit points.

They are not affected by raise dead or reincarnate spells or abilities. Resurrection and true resurrection can affect undead creatures. These spells turn undead creatures back into the living creatures they were before becoming undead.

Undead do not breathe, eat, or sleep.

Those who slay many over the course of their lifetimes, be they serial killers, mass-murderers, warmongering soldiers, or battle-driven berserkers, become marked and tainted by the sheer weight of their murderous deeds. When such killers are brought to justice and publicly executed for their heinous crimes before they have a chance to atone, the remains sometimes return to unlife to continue their dark work as a mohrg.

Undead things caring less for life than they did before their own deaths, mohrgs exist solely to wreak havoc on the living. Sometimes mistaken for skeletons or zombies, they are far more dangerous than those mindless abominations, retaining some semblance of their own memories — and the delight they once took in hearing the screams of the dying.

Mohrgs can render their victim immobile. Paralyzed creatures cannot move, speak, or take any physical actions. The creature is rooted to the spot, frozen and helpless. Paralysis works on the body, and a character may resist it. Unlike hold person and similar effects, a paralysis effect cannot be overcome after its effect has taken hold. A winged creature flying in the air at the time that it is paralyzed cannot flap its wings and falls. A swimmer can't swim and may drown.

The Market's Vengeance (Arodus (VIII) 15th, 4709 AR)

-
The thugs drew their weapons when the heroes did the same, and fought anyone standing between them and Zeeva. When their spellcaster was killed, any remaining thugs tried to flee the market. One of them escaped, one of them was killed, while the last was captured. The spellcaster tried to employ crowd-control spells to confound the heroes. Zeeva is unarmed and ill prepared for combat. She tried to stay out of harm's way. She pled in vain with the Pathfinders not to kill the Aspis attackers. The heroes had little time after the last of the Consortium agents was defeated . The goon who was conscious to witness the haunting experience is visibly shaken. Soon after the conclusion of the Aspis Consortium's attack on Zeeva Foxglove, a haunt  manifested by animating two piles of produce into shambling mounds and the market's central tree into an angry quickwood. Despite being indoors, a terrible wind began blowing through the Green Market, shaking the tree in the central plaza and

The Bone Field (Sarenith (VI) 29th, 4710 AR)

Image
Seneschal's Cathedral The bones around this area are meticulously organized, creating a spiral of bone walls that lead into a small clearing. In the center of this open space reside the bones of a gargantuan dragon. The dragon’s bones have been carefully carved with the draconic word for “protector” over and over again. Despite their pristine condition, the skull of the dragon has been crushed. The heroes uncovered a green dragon scale embedded in a fragment of the shattered skull. The bones ringing this clearing are inscribed with a complex litany of protective runes, mixed in with bits of draconic prophecy. A single tongue of rebuke had been stationed here. It circled this area but did not attack until the heroes tried to leave the cathedral. The tongue of rebuke alternated between its breath weapon and roar. It fought until destroyed. The Spirit of Auronorex This location contains some of the largest draconic skeletons in the entire Bone Field. Lying in the center of these skele

Numerian Leaf Armor

The few forests among the scrublands of Numeria are home to druidic elves, who use secret alchemical compounds to treat special leaves used in crafting armor for their warriors. Stitching the overlapping leaves into a leather jerkin, bracers, and leggings provides great flexibility while deflecting blows as well as metal armor. Numerian leaf armor is always masterwork.
