Death Of The DollmakerHazard 4

Uncommon Complex Haunt 
Source The Disgraced Dollmaker pg. 64
Complexity Complex
Stealth +12 (trained)
Description The death of Thalleus Jongrim—in his bed, surrounding by ritualistic implements—repeats in ghostly form.
Disable DC 21 Occultism (trained) to snuff out one of four ghostly candles or DC 23 Religion (trained) three times to calm what is left of Thalleus’s fractured spirit
Deathbed Ritual [reaction] (auditory, emotion, fear, mental) Trigger A living creature is adjacent to the bed; Effect Four ghostly candles appear around the bed—one at each corner— followed by a transparent image of a frail Thalleus reading from a tome in a wavering voice. Each living creature who can hear these words must succeed at a DC 23 Will save or become frightened 1 (frightened 2 on a critical failure). The haunt then rolls initiative.
Routine (1 action) The haunt recreates the moment when Thalleus dies, causing the ritual to go awry. This releases a wave of void energy, dealing 4d8 void damage in a 10-foot emanation from the bed (DC 21 basic Fortitude save). This damage is reduced by 1d8 for every ghostly candle that has been snuffed out.
Reset The haunt deactivates 1 minute after all living creatures have left the room. One hour after this or being Disabled, the haunt is ready to trigger again. Putting Thalleus’s spirit to rest permanently (page 71) destroys the haunt.
