Abilities

Shadow's Displeasure — When Anchor Root has fewer than 150 Hit Points, her shadow pulls at her essence to show the Vesicant Egg's displeasure. She looks pained and confused, and she becomes Clumsy 1 and Stupefied 1 until healed to 150 Hit Points or more. These conditions increase to 2 when below 100 Hit Points. When below 50 Hit Points, she falls Unconscious.
Vesicated Shadow — Anchor Root's shadow has become corrupted via the power of the Vesicant Egg . Her shredded shadow grants her some control over acid and shadows. She gains a +4 status bonus to resist acid and shadow effects.
Rupture Shadow (acid, occult, shadow) — Anchor Root can create immense blisters on a creature's shadow, which immediately burst, dealing 20d6 acid damage. She targets a creature within 60 feet that is casting a shadow, which must attempt a DC 37 Will save. Anchor Root can't use Rupture Shadow again for 1d4 rounds. **Critical Success** The target is unaffected and becomes temporarily immune for 1 day. **Success** The target takes half damage. The bursting shadow deals 5 splash{5 acid splash} damage to all creatures within 5 feet of the target. **Failure** The target takes full damage, and the bursting shadow deals 10 splash{10 acid splash} damage. **Critical Failure** The target takes double damage, the bursting shadow deals 20 splash{20 acid splash} damage, and the target also takes 4d6 persistent acid damage.
