A mummy is an undead creature who went through a lengthy embalming process and was then resurrected for nefarious reasons. They are often used as guardians of ancient tombs, though some texts mention mummies who rose from their tombs by sheer force of will. The mummy\u2019s most dreaded ability is Mummy Rot, which can cause a victim to slowly decompose until nothing remains but sand and dust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014Creaturi Obscuria<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Despair<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The first time a creature sees a mummy, it must make a Horror check (1\/1d8). A creature that fails is also paralyzed with fear for 1d4 rounds. Once a creature has resisted a particular mummy’s Despair, it cannot be affected by that mummy’s Despair again for 24 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mummy Rot<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n A creature damaged by the mummy’s Slam must make a Difficult CON check or contract Mummy Rot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Damage Resistance<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The mummy reduces damage from physical attacks by 5 points. Fire, magical attacks, and silver weapons ignore this resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cursed Wrappings (Remnant)<\/strong> Preserved Organ (Reagent)<\/strong> Greater mummies are powerful undead created from rulers, priests, champions, and other individuals whose spirits were bound to their preserved bodies. They often command lesser mummies and serve as eternal guardians of important tombs and sacred places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Despairing Aura<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The supernatural dread surrounding a greater mummy extends 30\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The first time a creature enters the aura or begins its turn within it, it must make a Horror check (2\/1d10+1). A creature that fails is also paralyzed with fear for 1d6 rounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once a creature successfully resists a particular greater mummy’s Despairing Aura, it cannot be affected by it again for 24 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Greater Mummy Rot<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n A creature damaged by the greater mummy’s Slam must make a Very Difficult CON check or contract Greater Mummy Rot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Damage Resistance<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The greater mummy reduces damage from physical attacks by 8 points. Fire, magical attacks, and silver weapons ignore this resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Royal Wrappings (Remnant)<\/strong> Black Resin Heart (Reagent)<\/strong> Mummy lords are ancient rulers and high priests whose spirits remain bound to their preserved bodies. Unlike lesser mummies, they retain much of the knowledge and magical power they possessed in life. A mummy lord rarely rests alone, surrounding itself with undead servants and the accumulated treasures of its forgotten civilization.<\/p>\n\n\n\nCharacteristics<\/strong><\/td> <\/td> <\/td> CV<\/strong><\/td> 3<\/strong><\/td><\/tr> Stat<\/strong><\/td> Score<\/strong><\/td> %<\/strong><\/td> Speed<\/strong><\/td> 20\u2019<\/td><\/tr> STR<\/strong><\/td> 20<\/td> 100<\/td> HP<\/strong><\/td> 32<\/td><\/tr> CON<\/strong><\/td> \u2014<\/td> \u2014<\/td> Dmg Mod<\/strong><\/td> 2d6<\/td><\/tr> SIZ<\/strong><\/td> 16<\/td> 80<\/td> AV<\/strong><\/td> 10<\/td><\/tr> INT<\/strong><\/td> 8<\/td> 40<\/td> Class<\/strong><\/td> Monster<\/td><\/tr> ACU<\/strong><\/td> 12<\/td> 60<\/td> Type<\/strong><\/td> Undead<\/td><\/tr> DEX<\/strong><\/td> 10<\/td> 50<\/td> Horror<\/strong><\/td> 1\/1d8<\/td><\/tr> SOC<\/strong><\/td> 14<\/td> 70<\/td> Treasure<\/strong><\/td> Average<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n \n
