Sacristan
Creature 10 — fiend, unholy, velstrac
Sacristans are failures among the velstracs, creatures whose bodies and minds have been utterly broken by the velstracs' torments. These unfortunates are assembled from scrap metal, nerveless flesh, and bits of darkness into loyal agents who take ecstatic pleasure in serving other velstracs. Sacristans are empowered by a miniature gateway to the Netherworld deep in their mouths. By distending their jaws, they can howl with the shrieks and windstorms of that plane. Sacristans vary in appearance b

+1 Status to All Saves vs. Magic —
Regeneration 10 (Deactivated by Holy or Silver) — Regeneration
Reactive Strike — Reactive Strike
Staggering Servitude (aura, divine, fear, mental, visual) — 30 feet. When a creature ends its turn in the aura, it sees a vision of the sacristan groveling in pitiable servitude. The creature must succeed at a DC 27 Will save or become Stunned 1.
Focus Gaze (concentrate, divine, fear, visual) — The sacristan eerily stares at a creature they can see within 30 feet. The creature must immediately attempt a Will save against staggering servitude. In addition, if the creature was already stunned, on a failed save, its revulsion toward the sacristan's presence causes it to be Stupefied 2 for 1 minute. After attempting this save, the creature is then temporarily immune to Focus Gaze until the start of the sacristan's next turn.
Shadow Scream (aura, concentrate, darkness, divine, mental, sonic) — Frequency once per hour
Effect The sacristan opens their mouth to unloose the wailing howls and mind-twisting darkness of the Netherworld. This creates a 30-foot type:emanation of darkness and wailing sounds around the sacristan. Creatures with darkvision can't see through this darkness. The sacristan can Sustain Shadow Scream for up to 1 minute. Non-velstrac creatures in the area when the ability is used, as well as those who enter or start their turn in the area, must attempt a DC 28 Will save.
**Critical Success** The creature is unaffected and is then temporarily immune for 24 hours.
**Success** The creature is Deafened for 1 round.
**Failure** The creature is Confused and deafened for 1 round.
**Critical Failure** The creature takes 20 mental damage, and is confused and deafened for 1 round.
