BRUTE: Maximize damage is a normal combat effect for the gladiator, instead of critical only.
PARRY: The gladiator have a free parrying attemp every round.
SHIELD BASH: The gladiator have a free attack with a shield every round.
Revived by an evil spell or cursed to fight forever as a zombie, this undead gladiator is only slightly less dangerous in death than in life.
Average Lair: Non-sapient undead do not create lairs, they are either created to serve some function, are the result of spontaneous animation in areas steeped in necromantic magic.
Treasure Type: Nil
Abilities:
Immunity (Fear, Sleep, and Charm)
Intensity 3
Undead: The creature is immune to the consequences of both fatigue and severe injuries. Undead are thus immune to all the detrimental effects of Serious Wounds. Even Major Wounds do not incapacitate them, although they can still have locations severed or shattered as per normal. The head and chest location typically stores the magic that is animating the creature. Any location (and those contiguous to it) that is smashed or severed from the bound area ceases to function, but the remainder of the body can continue if it still has limbs with which to act. A Major Wound to the magic-infused location destroys the undead outright. |
