Abilities
Aura of Decay (aura, primal) — 30 feet.
Plant objects and creatures in the emanation can't regain Hit Points unless the effect that attempts to heal them counteracts the aura, which has a counteract rank of 6 and a counteract DC of 32.
A primal warden of Zibik can spend 1 action to reverse this aura; it becomes an aura of renewal with the healing trait, instead doubling the number of Hit Points of any healing effect received by a plant creature in the emanation.

Primal Destruction (primal, void) — When the primal warden of Zibik is reduced to 0 Hit Points, it erupts with primal energy in a 30-foot emanation, dealing 12d6 void damage. Each creature in the area must attempt a DC 32 Will save with the following outcomes.
Critical Success The creature takes half damage.
Success The creature takes full damage.
Failure The creature takes full damage and becomes temporarily cursed by Zibik to be Enfeebled 1 and Stupefied 1 for 1 day; this is a curse effect with a counteract DC of 32.
Critical Failure As failure, except the creature becomes Enfeebled 2 and Stupefied 2.

Rotten Burst (primal) —
Flourishing Growth (plant, primal) — The first time each round a creature takes damage from the warden's fists, the target must attempt a DC 32 Fortitude save. On a failure, tiny sprouts burst from the creature's flesh, and it becomes Slowed 1 for 1 round.
Fractal Rot (disease, primal) — The first time each round a creature takes damage from the warden's rotten bark, the target becomes Sickened 1 as the flesh where it was struck momentarily twists and rots, causing considerable pain.
