The warden makes a rotten bark Strike against an adjacent creature without triggering reactions.Primal Destruction (primal, void) When the primal warden of Zibik is reduced to 0 Hit Points, it erupts with primal energy in a 30-foot emanation, dealing 12d6 void damage. Each creature in the area must attempt a DC 5 Will save with the following outcomes. Critical Success The creature takes half damage. Success The creature takes full damage. Failure The creature takes full damage and becomes temporarily cursed by Zibik to be enfeebled 1 and stupefied 1 for 1 day; this is a curse effect with a counteract DC of 5.
