Witchfire Warden
Creature 9 (uncommon) — incorporeal, spirit, undead, unholy
Pre-Remaster content. May include legacy alignment.
Manifesting as a sinuous form wreathed in sickly green flames, this incorporeal undead forms when a powerful hag or witch dies in agony or rage.

Abilities
Coven (mental, occult) — The witchfire adds Nightmare, Phantasmal Killer, Phantasmal Calamity, and Summon Entity to their coven's spells.
A coven can contain one or more witchfires, but it must also include at least one living creature capable of forming a coven; three witchfires cannot form a coven.

**Failure** As success, but the effect is permanent until removed.
**Critical Failure** As failure, but the creature gains weakness 10 to fire.
