90 feet. DC 42 Will
A ravener&#x27;s frightful presence causes creatures to cower in fear as well. As long as a creature is at least <a href="/condition/frightened">Frightened 2</a> or more as a result of the ravener&#x27;s frightful presence, it is also <a href="/condition/immobilized">Immobilized</a> from the fear.<hr/>A creature that first enters the area must attempt a Will save.

(Ravener) Cowering Fear

Trigger The ravener takes excess damage to their soul ward but still has at least 51 Hit Points in their soul ward
<hr/>
Effect The ravener draws deeply into their soul ward, discorporating their body into soul energy in order to escape.

(Ravener) Discorporate

+2 To All Saves Vs. Shadow

Trigger A creature within the monster&#x27;s reach uses a manipulate action or a move action, makes a ranged attack, or leaves a square during a move action it&#x27;s using.
<hr/>
Effect The monster attempts a melee Strike against the triggering creature. If the attack is a critical hit and the trigger was a manipulate action, the monster disrupts that action. This Strike doesn&#x27;t count toward the monster&#x27;s multiple attack penalty, and its multiple attack penalty doesn&#x27;t apply to this Strike.

Reactive Strike (Jaws Only)

An intangible field of necromantic energy protects a ravener from total destruction. A soul ward has 150 maximum Hit Points, or 200 if the ravener is level 21 or higher.
Whenever a ravener would be reduced below 1 Hit Point, all damage in excess of what would reduce them to 1 Hit Point is instead dealt to their soul ward. If this damage reduces the soul ward to fewer than 0 Hit Points, the ravener is destroyed.
A soul ward&#x27;s Hit Points can be restored only via specific ravener abilities such as Consume Soul, ravenous breath, or vicious criticals. A ravener who goes more than a week without successfully using Consume Soul to feed on a dying creature starves, and their soul ward loses 1d4 Hit Points each day until they feed. If the ravener&#x27;s soul ward loses all its Hit Points while the ravener still has more than 1 HP, they become a <a href="/creature/ravener-husk">Ravener Husk</a>.

Soul Ward 200 HP

Trigger A living creature within 30 feet of the ravener dies<hr/>Effect The ravener tears the creature&#x27;s soul from its body with their maw and gulps it down.

Success The ravener tears off a small chunk of the creature&#x27;s soul. If the victim is restored to life, they are <a href="/condition/drained">Drained 1</a> in addition to any other side effects of returning to life. The ravener adds a number of Hit Points to their soul ward equal to half the creature&#x27;s level.
Failure As success, but the creature&#x27;s soul is ravaged. The creature is <a href="/condition/drained">Drained 3</a> and the ravener adds a number of Hit Points to their soul ward equal to the creature&#x27;s level.
Critical Failure As failure, but the ravener devours the entire soul. The victim can&#x27;t be restored to life as long as the ravener exists except via a 10th-rank effect such as <a href="/spell/miracle">Miracle</a> or <a href="/spell/wish">Wish</a>, and the ravener adds a number of Hit Points to their soul ward equal to twice the creature&#x27;s level.

(Ravener) Consume Soul

When Nyssaveth deals void damage to a living creature with her jaws Strike, she gains 20 temporary Hit Points and the creature must succeed at a DC 43 Fortitude save or become <a href="/condition/enfeebled">Enfeebled 2</a>. Further damage dealt by her jaws Strike increases the enfeebled condition value by 2 on a failed save, to a maximum of <a href="/condition/enfeebled">Enfeebled 4</a>.

Drain Vigor

Nyssaveth&#x27;s Strikes affect incorporeal creatures with the effects of a <a href="/equipment/ghost-touch">Ghost Touch</a> property rune, and her jaws deal an additional 8d6 force damage to undead.

Ghost Bane

The ravener treats an attack roll as a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20, as long as the attack roll was a success. Additionally, whenever the ravener makes a critical hit with one of their Strikes, the target must succeed on a DC 42 Fortitude save or gain the <a href="/condition/drained">Drained 1</a> condition. If the target already has a drained value of greater than 0, their drained value instead increases by 1, to a maximum of drained 4. Whenever the ravener applies drain to a creature in this way, their soul ward gains 5 Hit Points.

Vicious Criticals

The ravener breathes a blast of necrotic flame that deals 20d6 void and 4d6 persistent void damage (DC 44 Basic Reflex save). A creature that fails its save is also <a href="/condition/drained">Drained 1</a> (or <a href="/condition/drained">Drained 2</a> on a critical failure). If a creature is drained by the ravener&#x27;s Void Breath, the ravener&#x27;s soul ward gains 5 HP. The ravener can&#x27;t use Void Breath again for 1d4 rounds.
