Graveknight Captain

Graveknight's Shield (arcane) — The graveknight's curse extends to their shield, or the graveknight's armor uses a portion of itself to produce a shield. The graveknight has a shield that uses the statistics of a Sturdy Shield of a level no higher than the graveknight's level – 1. The shield is quasi-independent of the graveknight and automatically protects the graveknight from harm. When the shield is raised, it automatically uses Shield Block to reduce the damage of the first attack against the graveknight each round without the graveknight needing to spend their reaction to do so. The shield automatically rejuvenates with the rest of the graveknight and must be destroyed in the same manner as the graveknight's armor.

Reactive Strike —

Rejuvenation (divine) — When a graveknight is destroyed, their armor rebuilds their body over the course of 1d10 days—or more quickly if the armor is worn by a living host. If the body is destroyed before then, the process restarts. A graveknight can only be permanently destroyed by obliterating their armor (such as with Disintegrate), transporting it to the Forge of Creation, or throwing it into the heart of a volcano.

Void Healing — A creature with void healing draws health from void energy rather than vitality energy. It is damaged by vitality damage and is not healed by vitality healing effects. It does not take void damage, and it is healed by void effects that heal undead.

Devastating Blast (arcane) — The graveknight unleashes a 30-foot cone of energy. Creatures in the area take 4d12 acid damage (DC 24 Reflex save).

The graveknight can use this ability once every 1d4 rounds.
