Ability

Blazing Admonition

(divine, evocation, fire, visual) Heat scorches those who lay eyes on the nightmarchers. All creatures in a 60-foot cone take 15d6 fire damage (DC 34 basic Reflex save). Prone creatures and the nightmarchers' kin are unaffected as long as they have not taken a hostile action against the nightmarchers. The nightmarchers can't use Blazing Admonition for 1d4 rounds.

 

Ability

Divine Innate Spells

DC 31; Constant (4th) air walk

 

Ability

Form Up

 

Ability

Frightful Presence

(aura, auditory, emotion, fear, mental) 90 feet, DC 31

 

Ability

Kinsense

(detection, divination, divine) Nightmarchers can detect creatures who are their kin, whether by blood or bond, as an imprecise sense. If they focus their senses on a creature by Seeking, they learn whether they are related to that creature, and how.

 

Ability

Missile Volley

The nightmarchers fling a hail of spears and stones, dealing 5d6+9 bludgeoning or piercing damage to creatures in a 10-foot burst within 20 feet (DC 31 basic Reflex save). When the nightmarchers are reduced to 8 or fewer squares, this decreases to a 5-foot burst.

 

Ability

Striking Koa

6d6+12 slashing damage

 

Ability

Troop Movement

Whenever the nightmarchers Stride, they first Form Up as a free action to condense into a 20-foot-by-20-foot area (minus any missing squares), then move. This works just like a Gargantuan creature moving; for instance, if any of the nightmarchers' squares enter difficult terrain, the extra movement cost applies to the whole group.

 

Trait

Incorporeal

An incorporeal creature or object has no physical form. It can pass through solid objects, including walls. When inside an object, an incorporeal creature can't perceive, attack, or interact with anything outside the object, and if it starts its turn in an object, it is slowed 1. Corporeal creatures can pass through an incorporeal creature, but they can't end their movement in its space. An incorporeal creature can't attempt Strength-based checks against physical creatures or objects—only against incorporeal ones—unless those objects have the ghost touch property rune. Likewise, a corporeal creature can't attempt Strength-based checks against incorporeal creatures or objects. Incorporeal creatures usually have immunity to effects or conditions that require a physical body, like disease, poison, and precision damage. They usually have resistance against all damage (except force damage and damage from Strikes with the ghost touch property rune), with double the resistance against non-magical damage.

 

Trait

Spirit

Spirits are ephemeral creatures defined by their spiritual self and often lacking a physical form.

 

Trait

Troop

A troop is an organized collection of component creatures, typically Small or Medium in size, working as a cohesive whole. A troop is 16 squares in size and has two Hit Point thresholds in their HP entry, under which it reduces in size to 12 squares and then 8 squares. A troop has the Troop Defenses, Form Up, and Troop Movement abilities. Most troops have a weakness to area damage. Because they consist of multiple discrete creatures, they can't be summoned.

 

Trait

Undead

Once living, these creatures were infused after death with negative energy and soul-corrupting evil magic. When reduced to 0 Hit Points, an undead creature is destroyed. Undead creatures are damaged by positive energy, are healed by negative energy, and don't benefit from healing effects.
