Ghoul Fever: Bite-injury; save Death; onset 1 day; frequency 1 day; effect 1d3 Constitution damage and 1d3 Dexterity damage; cure 2 consecutive saves. A humanoid who dies of ghoul fever rises as a ghoul at the next midnight. A humanoid who becomes a ghoul in this way retains none of the abilities it possessed in life. It is not under the control of any other ghouls, but it hungers for the flesh of the living and behaves like a normal ghoul in all respects. A humanoid of 4 Hit Dice or more rises as a ghast.

 

Special

|Channel|Resistance|Disease|Paralysis

This special attack renders the victim immobile. Paralyzed creatures cannot move, speak, or take any physical actions. The creature is rooted to the spot, frozen and helpless. Paralysis works on the body, and a character can resist it with a Paralysis saving throw. Unlike hold person and similar effects, a paralysis effect does not allow a new save each round.
