Berserker Ordulf
Level 16Attacks
Abilities
Ordulf hasn't met a significant combat challenge in ages, and even when facing deadly foes like the PCs his arrogance can be used against him. If a PC successfully Disarms, Feints, Frightens, or Trips Ordulf, his arrogance gets the better of him and he grows sloppy in his tactics, reducing his AC to 34 until the start of his next turn. A PC can also attempt to issue a more debilitating insult to Ordulf. Insult Ordulf 2 The PC spends several seconds issuing insults and taunts to Ordulf, then attempts a DC 38 deception, DC 38 intimidation, or DC 38 performance check. If the insults include challenges to Ordulf's bravery, compare him to a troll or a chicken, insult his skill at fishing, or liken him to a witch or national of Irrisen, this becomes a DC 33 check. Critical Success You strike a nerve. Not only does Ordulf become Sickened 2 with anger, he is also Stunned 1 from the shock of your words. Success Your insults cause Ordulf to become sickened 2 with anger. Failure Your insult only has a brief effect, causing Ordulf to become Sickened 1. He automatically recovers from this sickened condition at the end of his next turn. Critical Failure Your attempt to insult Ordulf fails so spectacularly that he becomes temporarily immune to Insult Ordulf activities from you for 24 hours.
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.
Frequency once per day Trigger Ordulf rolls initiative Effect Ordulf attempts to Demoralize an observed foe.
Ordulf Strikes two adjacent creatures within his reach. Both attacks count against his multiple attack penalty, but do not increase his penalty until he has made both attacks.
Frequency once per round Effect Ordulf issues a devastating and humiliating insult to a creature within 30 feet that he can see. Ordulf attempts an intimidation check against the target's Will DC. That character is then temporarily immune to Crushing Insult for 24 hours. Critical Success The insult is distracting and humiliating; the target is Stupefied 1 and Off-Guard for 1 minute. Success The insult is distracting, but its effects pass quickly; the target is stupefied 1 and off-guard until the start of Ordulf's next turn. Failure The insult barely cuts, but is distracting enough that the target is off-guard until the end of Ordulf's turn. Critical Failure Ordulf's attempted insult fails spectacularly, and the PC who he was attempting to insult can instantly insult him back, using Insult Ordulf as a free action.
