#10 Spirit of Ash & Char: 31 Horrors for Ruination Pilgrimage

 Spirt of Ash & Char

Type: Spirit

Group: 1

(I'm porting this from my OSE ghost posts from back in 2020. You can find it here with OSE stats and in the collected zine pdf form for OSE and DCC stats. This was one of my favorites and Ruination Pilgrimage always needs more ghosts)

The anger of a Ghost of Ash & Char is unmatched. Rightfully so; they were subjected to the most horrible of deaths. These minor ghosts almost take delight in inflicting pain and suffering upon their victims.

C:65 1d5 Burning Hands + Immolate DMG AP:8 I:70 W2(15) ES:2

Immolate: Extra 1d5 heat DMG with each hit. There's a 50% chance of catching target on fire. 1d10 DMG per Round if caught on fire.

Explosion: Upon reaching 0 Health roll Instinct and if successful, The Spirit of Ash & Char explodes in a fireball doing 2d10 DMG to all within Adjacent and Throwing Ranges. Successful Agility Test for half DMG.

AP:8: Only with normal weapons. If attackers' weapons are enhanced with prayer ribbons, relics, etc. AP is 0. 

Vulnerabilities: Water, or cold-based attacks will do +1d5 DMG.
