Grave Hag

A grave hag adds Harm, Mimic Undead, and the Call Spirit ritual to her coven's spells.

Trigger The grave hag is adjacent to an ally when the hag is targeted by an attack or an effect that requires a Reflex saving throw Effect The triggering effect is redirected to target the ally.

The grave hag names a single creature within 30 feet; that creature must succeed at a DC 28 will save or be afflicted with a grave curse equal to the hag's level. The curse lasts until the hag chooses to end it or is slain, rather than by returning items. Regardless of the save result, the target is then temporarily immune to the hag's grave curse for 24 hours. Effect You are hounded by undead creatures of the same level as the curse. Every night, you must attempt a DC 15 flat check. On a failure, an incorporeal undead manifests to hassle and harry you throughout the night, retreating before it can take much damage and often preventing you from gaining a full night's rest. Whenever you enter a graveyard or other area where bodies are buried, you must succeed at the same flat check or a body animates as a corporeal undead (typically a skeleton or zombie) to attack you. These undead are temporary and exist only to harry you; if you take control of the undead, move on, or otherwise avoid their attacks, incorporeal undead discorporate and corporeal undead collapse into ordinary corpses. The curse can be removed by returning the stolen items to their resting place.

The hag targets a living creature within 30 feet and overwhelms it with feelings of entombment. The target attempts a DC 28 fortitude save and is then temporarily immune to the hag's Grave Impressions for 24 hours. Critical Success The target is unaffected. Success The target is Paralyzed for 1 round. Failure The target is Unconscious. Critical Failure The target is unconscious and can't awaken for 1 hour.

Creatures Grabbed or Restrained by the grave hag take a -1 circumstance penalty to saving throws against the grave hag's spells and abilities.

A grave hag appears as an undead creature to magical effects.

Requirements The monster's last action was a successful Strike that lists 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. This attempt neither applies nor counts toward the creature's multiple attack penalty. The monster can instead use Grab and choose one creature it's grabbing or restraining with an appendage that has Grab to automatically extend that condition to the end of the monster's next turn.
