Abilities

Site Bound — Syarstik can't leave Red Cat Cave, and he rarely ever leaves area E9 A typical ghost can stray only a short distance from where it was killed or the place it haunts. A typical limit is 120 feet. Some ghosts are instead bound to a room, building, item, or creature that was special to it rather than a location.
Rejuvenation (divine) — When Syarstik is destroyed, he re-forms after 2d4 days within area E9 , fully healed. Syarstik can be permanently destroyed only by a non-possessed wielder of the Primordial Flame .
Void Healing — Negative Healing
Awaken Painting (divine) — Syarstik animates a cave painting within 60 feet for 10 minutes. The painting's movement mimics Syarstik's, so the connection between the ghost and the awakened painting is obvious. Creatures other than Syarstik within 10 feet of the awakened painting are Off-Guard because of these eerie movements. Syarstik can make ghostly fangs Strikes at any creature within 10 feet of a cave painting; the target's cover or concealment from the cave painting, rather than from Syarstik, applies to this Strike. A creature adjacent to an awakened painting can spend 2 actions to attempt a DC 18 Occultism or DC 18 Religion check (to compel the awakened painting to abate) or a DC 20 Crafting or DC 20 Thievery check (to thoroughly smear the cave painting). On a success, the painting is destroyed, and the animation ceases. Either way, this activity has the concentrate trait. Destroying three awakened paintings quells Syarstik's anger, causing the great cat to cease his attacks.
Pounce — Syarstik Strides and makes a Strike at the end of that movement. If he began this action Hidden, he remains hidden until after this ability's Strike.
Sneak Attack — Syarstik deals an additional 1d6 precision damage to Off-Guard creatures.
