Abilities
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.
When a graveknight is destroyed, its armor rebuilds its body over the course of 1d10 days-or more quickly if the armor is worn by a living host. If the body is destroyed before then, the process restarts. A graveknight can only be permanently destroyed by obliterating its armor (such as with Disintegrate), transporting it to the Forge of Creation, or throwing it into the heart of a volcano.
30 feet. When a creature in the aura uses a vitality spell or ability, the graveknight automatically attempts to counteract it, with a counteract modifier of +13.
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.
The graveknight unleashes a 30-foot cone of energy. Creatures in the area take 4d12 fire damage (DC 24 reflex save). The graveknight can use this ability once every 1d4 rounds.
On a critical hit with a dogslicer, Ripnugget yanks bits of flesh from his victim as he rips the blade free. The target becomes Sickened 1 from the pain, and is Off-Guard as long as they remain sickened.

Effect: Graveknight's Curse
Ripnugget's mount is a giant gecko (HP 37; AC 19, Fort +11, Ref +8, Will +7) named Stickfoot. The graveknight summons a supernatural mount as per Marvelous Mount, heightened to a level equal to half the graveknight's level. Unlike phantom steed , the steed's AC and saving throw bonuses are all 4 lower than the graveknight's, and the steed has one-third the graveknight's Hit Points (rounded down). If the steed is destroyed, the graveknight must wait 1 hour before using this ability again.
The graveknight has access to the critical specialization effects of any weapons it wields.
