Ancient Tupilaq
Creature 11 (unique) — construct
AnvilCrasherLANDAQUATICconstructprimallightning
A tupilaq is an artistically crafted construct carved from animal bones (typically whale or walrus) and imbued with the express purpose of eviscerating its creator's enemies. A tupilaq manifests from hateful magic-a thing that can be created only by someone who believes they were grievously wronged. When a terrible, unforgivable crime is committed against someone with great skill at carving and who has knowledge of the proper ritual, the aggrieved can channel their grief and hate through whisper

Abilities
Construct Armor (Hardness 11) — Like normal objects, a tupilaq has Hardness. This Hardness reduces any damage it takes by an amount equal to the Hardness. Once a tupilaq is reduced to less than half its Hit Points, or immediately upon being damaged by a critical hit, its construct armor breaks, it loses its Hardness, and its Armor Class is reduced to 28.
Carver's Curse — When a tupilaq is created, the curse imparted by its creator manifests in the form of a single 5th-rank Lightning Bolt the tupilaq can cast three times per day. The particular spell is a reflection of the creator's wish for vengeance.
