Raven Warlock
Raven Warlock
Half-Orc, CE Medium Humanoid (Greenblood)
Complex Monster, XP 7200
Level 18 (+7)
"What are those damned wretches doing here?! At first they said they would only send some of their warriors, but now there's an entire constable, enough to destroy our entire platoon!"
——Grask Brachfang, Half-Orc Commander
The Raven Warlock serves as the leader of other Half-Orcs dedicated to the Raven god. If more than one Warlock is present, they act as a council, determining the actions of their flock through divination and coercion in equal parts. These dark eldritch casters have sunken in features and appear to be half in the grave to those who do not understand the nature of their power. They favor black feathered robes that emulate the strange god they serve, and all possess a hooked dagger to aid in their black magic, as well as serving as a weapon. These Warlocks favor damaging energies pulled from the void, and spells that confound and cloud the minds of their enemies, so that their flock can swoop in to tear the debilitated foes to pieces.

Special Actions
Raven Transformation
Immediate Action [Grapple]
The target transforms into a swarm of ravens, gaining a fly speed of 50ft. When the swarm moves through an area occupied by another creature, that creature suffers 30 Slashing damage from a flurry of beaks and claws (Limit once per creature per round). Additionally, while within the swarm, creatures are Nauseated. While in Raven form, the Warlock cannot attack or use Cast Actions. Additionally, he cannot be targeted by attacks, except those that target creatures in an area. If the Warlock is subject to such an attack, and the damage dealt exceeds his Healing Value, he is forced to return to his humanoid form. Alternatively, the Warlock may choose to return to his humanoid form as an Immediate Action. (Legendary)
