Abilities
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.
Flammable — A tar zombie requires a successful DC 20 flat check to recover from persistent fire damage. This DC isn't reduced for assisted recovery.
Tar-Splattered Charge — The tar zombie predator lurches at its foe. It Strides twice and makes a claw Strike, or strides once and makes two claw Strikes. Both Strikes count toward its multiple attack penalty as normal. It can't make a Tar-Spattered Charge again for 1d4 rounds.
Vomit Tar (primal) — The tar zombie vomits a gout of sticky tar in a 15-foot cone that deals 6d6 bludgeoning damage ((DC 25 Reflex) save). Creatures that fail the save are Slowed 1 and gain fire weakness 5. Both conditions end after 3 rounds or when the tar is scrubbed off (which requires 3 Interact actions). The tar zombie can't Vomit Tar again for 1d4 rounds.
Improved Grab —
WORKS WELL WITH
SniperLANDA ranged striker can keep damaging from outside the cone while this grappling brute pins down whoever gets close.
SnareLAND / VERTICALA controller that keeps targets grouped turns the tar cone into a near-guaranteed multi-target hit.
WeaverLANDA caster stays safely behind this durable melee wall while it soaks Reactive Strikes and grabs whoever pushes forward.
PUNISHES
✖ clumping✖ melee reliance✖ low Reflex
Pairing with another heavy melee brute crowds the same grabbed target and wastes actions competing for the same Off-Guard opening.
