ShadeFlankerLANDSUBTERRANEANundead
Ghasts-feral, foul-smelling, and constantly hungry-are the more powerful kin of ghouls. They are relentless in the pursuit of their prey. Few creatures are more ubiquitous to sinister locations such as lonely graveyards and ruined crypts than the flesh-eating undead known as ghouls.

Stench (aura, olfactory) — 10 feet. A creature entering the aura or starting its turn in the aura must succeed at a DC 18 Fortitude save or become Sickened 1 (plus Slowed 1 as long as it's sickened on a critical failure).
While within the aura, the creature takes a -2 circumstance penalty to saves against disease and to recover from the sickened condition. A creature that succeeds at its save is temporarily immune for 1 minute.
