Abilities

Enternal Damnation (divine) — As long as its soul chain remains intact, a forge-spurned can't be truly destroyed. It rises again fully healed at the next sundown, even if its physical body was destroyed.
Searing Heat (fire) — A creature that touches the forge-spurned (including Grappling it or hitting it with an unarmed attack) takes 2d6 fire damage (DC 21 Reflex save).
Void Healing — Negative Healing
Forge Breath (divine, fire) — The forge-spurned breathes a cloud of stinging soot, ash, and glowing embers. This can affect either a 30-foot cone or a 20-foot burst centered on the forge-spurned and persists for 1d4 rounds. Each creature that moves into or starts their turn in the area takes 6d6 fire damage, with a DC 21 Reflex save. A creature that fails its save is also Blinded for 1 minute. Creatures within the cloud are Concealed, though not from the forge-spurned. The forge-spurned can't use Forge Breath again until it has used Inflate Bellows.
Inflate Bellows —
Soul Chain (divine, fire) — If a creature is slain by an attack from the soul chain and the forge-spurned is able to retain the creature's corpse, it can bind the creature's soul into the soul chain (as Seize Soul) with a day of work at a forge and a DC 20 Crafting check. An individual whose soul is bound in this way can't be resurrected unless the soul chain is destroyed (Hardness 10, 40 HP, BT 20).
