Okoa

A monster with this ability regains the given number of Hit Points each round at the beginning of its turn.

Unlike other undead, a vampire isn't destroyed at 0 HP. Instead, it falls Unconscious. If its body rests in its coffin for 1 hour, the vampire gains 1 HP, after which its fast healing begins to function normally.

Okoa reverts to pure shadow and absorbs her body and her gear into the darkness, or it shifts back to her physical form. In shadow form, Okoa gains a climb Speed equal to her land Speed and can more through any gap that isn't airtight. However, she can only move along solid surfaces that aren't highly reflective, not liquid or mirrored surfaces. If the surface she's on is destroyed, Okoa returns to physical form and is Stunned 1. She loses fast healing while in shadow form but can remain in shadow form indefinitely. If Okoa is exposed to sunlight while in shadow form, she becomes Slowed 2 and must attempt a DC 16 flat at the end of each of her turns. If she fails, she is destroyed, the shadow vanishing with a blood-curdling wail.

All strigoi possess the following weaknesses: • Revulsion Strigoi are uncomfortable near mirrors or sources of bright light. Only a strigoi's shadow reflects in a mirror, and this often compels them to cover or destroy mirrors in their presence rather than risk their true nature being displayed. A strigoi can't voluntarily come within 10 feet of a brandished mirror or source of bright light. To brandish a mirror or light source, a creature must Interact to do so for 1 round (similar to Raising a Shield). If the strigoi involuntarily comes within 10 feet of a brandished mirror or light source, they gain the Fleeing condition, running from the brandished object until they end an action beyond 10 feet. After 1 round of being exposed to the subject of their revulsion, a strigoi can attempt a DC 25 will save as a single action, which has the concentrate trait. On a success, they overcome their revulsions for 1d6 rounds (or 1 hour on a critical success). A strigoi can move normally around mirrors or bright light sources that are not brandished, although doing so causes them discomfort that can be noticed with a successful Perception check to Sense motive. • Sunlight When exposed to direct sunlight, a strigoi immediately becomes Unconscious and falls to the ground. They appear to be dead: they don't breathe, their body temperature matches their surroundings, and they don't react to pain or other stimuli. A successful perception check against the strigoi's Reflex DC is enough to note one anomaly: the shadow cast by their "dead" body shifts and moves slightly, its edges twisting and active. Certain detection spells, senses like lifesense, and the "corpse" taking damage from vitality energy still function normally and could reveal the truth without a successful Perception check. Viewing the "corpse" in a mirror's reflection can also reveal the truth, for only the body's shadow reflects. While in sunlight and unconscious, the strigoi loses their resistance to physical damage. If the strigoi takes enough damage that they would be reduced to 0 Hit Points, their body quickly decomposes, and the strigoi is destroyed. • Water Revulsion A strigoi cannot cross a significant source of running water (such as a creek, river, or waves on a seashore). A strigoi capable of flight can cross running water provided they approach no closer than 10 feet to the liquid's surface. If forced into running water against their will, the strigoi becomes Slowed 2 and gains the fleeing condition as long as they remain in the water. At the end of any turn in which the strigoi remains in running water, they must succeed at a DC 5 flat or be destroyed.

A creature with void healing draws health from void energy rather than vitality energy. It is damaged by vitality damage and is not healed by vitality healing effects. It does not take void damage, and it is healed by void effects that heal undead.

Requirements A Grabbed, Paralyzed, Restrained, Unconscious, or willing creature is within the strigoi's reach

The strigoi sinks their fangs into the targeted creature to drink its blood and draw out its vital essence. This requires an athletics check against the creature's Fortitude DC if the creature is grabbed and is automatic for any of the other conditions. The creature becomes Drained 1 and Stupefied 1, and Okoa regains 13 healing HP, gaining any excess HP as temporary Hit Points. Drinking Essence from a creature that's already drained or stupefied doesn't restore any HP but increases either the creature's drained condition value or its stupefied condition value by 1 (whichever value is lesser is increased; if both values are equal, then the strigoi chooses which condition to increase the value of). A victim's drained condition decreases by 1 per week. A blood transfusion, which requires a successful DC 20 medicine check and sufficient blood or a blood donor, reduces the drained value by 1 after 10 minutes. A victim's stupefied condition decreases by 1 per day after performing daily preparations. If the daily preparations are done in full sunlight, the stupefied condition is removed entirely.

Okoa becomes a semi-incorporeal shade, then Strides or Flies up to twice her Speed in a straight line, dealing 8d8 slashing damage to all creatures in that line or adjacent to that line (DC 28 reflex save). She can move through enemies and solid objects during this movement. At the end of this movement, she returns to her fully corporeal form. She can't use Strafing Strike again for 1d4 rounds.

Okoa makes two claw Strikes at the same target, each using her current multiple attack penalty. If both attacks hit, the target is also dealt 1d8 persistent bleed damage.

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.
