THE BLACK RAVEN’S COMPENDIUM A MIDNIGHT TOWER COMPENDIUM Gothic magic items, monsters, spells, murder mystery plot ideas, and more for the world’s greatest roleplaying game www.midnight-tower.com
EERIE MAGIC ITEMS candelabra of the silent walker Wondrous item, rare This candelabra must be fitted with newly lit candles and held in one hand to function. When the light of its candles falls on an object or creature that is magically or naturally invisible within 30 feet, roll 1d20. On a roll of 9 or less, nothing happens. On a roll of 10 or higher, the object or creature becomes visible for as long as it remains in the candles’ radiance. In addition, Investigation and Perception checks made inside the radiance of the candelabra are made with a +3 bonus. Its magical properties can be activated only by candles moulded at midnight under a full moon. The candles burn for 30 minutes, provide bright light in a 5-foot radius, and dim light for an additional 10 feet. The Candelabra of the Silent Walker is a threearmed elaborate candelabra made of bright silver that never needs polishing. The candelabra has been used by many adventuring parties over the years. It has been especially valued by groups who specialise in delving into ancient tombs and dungeons. Last week, a famous adventuring party returned to Winterhold after exploring a dungeon in the Hintherdale Region. While their exploration was successful, they left the candelabra behind after fleeing from an infuriated lich that didn’t appreciate their visit. crimson guise Wondrous item, very rare (requires attunement) When you wear this masquerade mask, you can spend one action to activate it by speaking the words “Mortem Obire”. The words are inscribed on the inside of the mask and can be found only by succeeding on a DC 20 Investigation check. When active, the mask turns into a hideous demonic visage. All creatures within 30 feet of you that can see the mask must make a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw. On a successful save, a creature takes 2d6 psychic damage. On a failed save, it takes 4d6 psychic damage and becomes Frightened of you for 1 minute. A Frightened creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. This effect can be used only once per day. The mask also enables the wearer to cast the following spells once per day: misty step, invisibility, and contagion (save DC 15). The mask is made of old, cracked red leather from an unidentified fiendish creature. It features black velvet ribbons, golden studs, and a pointed beak. It always smells of sugary perfume. Crimson Guise has been seen at parties and balls for centuries. The origins of the mask are unknown. candelabra of the silent walker crimson guise www.midnight-tower.com www.midnight-tower.com 58
mirror of ilynina Wondrous item, legendary This mirror is cursed. A creature that touches it must immediately make a DC 18 Charisma saving throw. On a failed save, the creature is instantly trapped in the mirror as if they were affected by the Minimus Containment variant of the spell imprisonment. Simultaneously, a hostile creature that already is trapped in the mirror is released. The creature is hostile to all other beings and immediately attacks the nearest creature. The DM decides what type of creature emerges from the mirror, or rolls on the Trapped Monster Table. A creature trapped in the mirror can be freed only when a new creature is trapped or by the spell wish. Creatures that spend more than five days trapped in the mirror must succeed on a DC 18 Charisma saving throw or transform permanently into an evil monster of the DM’s choice. If the transformed creature is released from the mirror and dies, it reverts to its true form. The mirror is made out of elegantly carved engelwood, and its dusky, silvery mirror is cracked. A smoky shadow can occasionally be glimpsed deep inside the mirror. The mirror was once a gift to Ilynina Gnejs, a young noble lady, shortly before her wedding. Her jealous sister bought the mirror in a peculiar antique shop in the old quarters of town before it disappeared. However, Ilynina grew enthralled with the mirror and spent all her time admiring her own reflection until she forgot all around her. The wedding was called off, but the young bride-to-be remained obsessed with her own reflection and gradually withered away. It is said that Ilynina TRAPPED MONSTER TABLE 1. Drow CR 1 2. Shadow CR 1/2 3. Imp CR 1 4. Spectre CR 1 5. Cult fanatic CR 2 6. Green hag CR 3 7. Wight CR 3 8. Ghost CR 4 9. Incubus/Succubus CR 4 10. Night hag CR 5 11. Vampire spawn CR 5 12. Medusa CR 6 13.

If the mirror is destroyed or repaired by the spell mend, it disappears and leaves behind only a faint trail of blue smoke. Any creature trapped inside the mirror is destroyed. The mirror reappears 1d100 years later in a random antique shop or travelling salesman’s wagon. mirror of ilynina www.midnight-tower.com www.midnight-tower.com 59
veil of the afterlife Wondrous item, rare While wearing this veil, you become aware of undead creatures and know their exact location within 15 feet, and you feel the presence but not the location of undead creatures within 60 feet. You can’t tell the type of undead or its identity. When you are in dim light, the veil’s fabric blends with the darkness and gives you a +2 bonus on Stealth checks made to hide, as well as a -2 penalty on Perception checks based on vision. In addition, you have resistance to necrotic damage, and you register as an undead creature to other creatures that use abilities and spells to detect undead. Veil of the Afterlife is a long widow’s veil made of light black lace with an embroidered hem. It is 2 feet long and must be worn over the wearer’s face for its magical properties to work. Removing or putting on the veil takes one round. Little is known about the Veil of the Afterlife. Some say it was first worn by an ancient queen whose beloved was slain in a battle. The queen mourned so grievously that she perished and became a ghost, doomed to forever haunt a forest in which she and her lover often had walked. ring of thalassi Ring, very rare (requires attunement) While wearing this magic ring, your Dexterity score increases by 1, and you have resistance to poison damage. A successful DC 20 Investigation check reveals how to open the ring. Inside it is a cavity that can contain one dose of poison. An enchantment hides any poison stored inside the ring from magical and natural attempts to detect it. The wearer can use an action to apply the poison to an object within 5 feet, e.g. a goblet. The ring’s intricate mechanism gives the wearer a +5 bonus to Sleight of Hand checks made when applying the poison. The ring is made from matte white silver. It is decorated with an oval green Verdelite crystal, a precious gemstone found only in deep caves on the Farraway Islands. The ring once belonged to the sea elven Thalassi family, who were traders based in Whiteport. It was handed down through generations, but each heir became increasingly ruthless and shrewd. Over time, several merchants who were linked to the Thalassi family’s affairs died from poisoning, and other traders grew suspicious. Eventually, the Thalassi family was shunned and avoided. The ring was lost when the last member of the family was assassinated. The many deaths that the ring has been involved in – together with its magical abilities – have made the ring sentient and malicious. It encourages the wearer to embrace evil through macabre and glorified dreams. The wearer of the ring may remain unaware of the ring’s bloodthirsty influence. ring of thalassi veil of the afterlife www.midnight-tower.com www.midnight-tower.com 60

Once the ghostly cat has used this ability, it can’t be used again until the next midnight. NEW MONSTERS ghostly cat At a glance, the ghostly cat resembles a normal cat. Most are charcoal black, grey, or white and have a proud bearing. They are usually reclusive and rarely approach humanoids. Only a few details betray the true nature of a ghostly cat. In moonlight, its eyes gleam like golden coins, and it becomes transparent with a faint smokey aura. Some hold that ghostly cats evolved from normal cats that lived near burial sites. Others argue that they arrived from the Plane of Shadow or Hades. Some scholar claims that there is a link to these cats and the famous mage Octavia Dragonborn. Dwelling among the Dead. The ghostly cat has an innate fondness for graveyards and often makes its den among tombstones and mausoleums. Reader of Souls. The ghostly cat can sense hidden feelings and true intentions in the hearts of other creatures. For this reason, the ghostly cat can easily see through lies and notice deception. www.midnight-tower.com www.midnight-tower.com 61
vengeful bride The vengeful bride is the spirit of a bride-to-be who died from mortal sorrow after her fiancé was murdered. It appears as a corpse clad in a long, bloodied wedding gown and a torn veil. The vengeful bride can fly, but often glides soundlessly along the ground with its head bowed. The vengeful bride prefers complete silence. While it can speak, it does so rarely and only for good reason. Those who have heard the vengeful bride utter a word and lived to recount the experience say that its voice is unnatural and hushed. Mortally Wronged. Stricken dead by grief, a vengeful bride has refused its journey to the afterlife and lingers to exact revenge. It exists solely to kill those who caused its anguish. The rage of the vengeful bride knows few boundaries, and it delights in stealing the life force of others. However, the vengeful bride desires revenge above all else. It may refrain from attacking those who can point it to more desirable victims, such as those who were complicit in killing the vengeful bride’s fiancé. Nightmarish Legend. The vengeful bride is often mentioned in old folklore and cautionary tales. It is said to haunt the places where it was meant to be married, such as churches, chapels, meadows, or stone circles. The vengeful bride has also been sighted in forlorn graveyards and in tombs. However, some bards claim that this fearsome undead creature may roam far and wide to hunt down those who murdered their betrothed. Freezing Aura. The vengeful bride radiates an intense and unearthly cold that is easily noticeable. Within 120 feet of the vengeful bride, the temperature drops sharply, patches of frost grow on surfaces, and the breath of living creatures turns to mist in the air. 62

The target must succeed on a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw or take 4d10 psychic damage and become Paralyzed until the end of the vengeful bride’s next turn. If a target’s saving throw is successful, the target is immune to the vengeful bride’s Fatal Beckoning for the next hour. Crippling Touch. Melee Spell Attack: +10 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature.

murder at the manor Quest: Mayor Eirie Wynter has been found dead by her servants in her home of Highgate Hall, a lavish mansion in the centre of town. Also present at the murder scene was Baroness Zael Bellamy, Eirie’s arch-rival. It is an open secret that Zael and Eirie disliked each other, and that both used shady methods to increase their power. The town guard hires the characters to investigate the murder. What the characters don’t know: Zael is innocent. Eirie had planned to poison Zael, but she mixed up their wine glasses and accidentally killed herself. Encounters: If the characters sneak inside Zael’s manor, Blueridge Court, they are confronted by four veterans and one knight (Zael’s brother). Solution: A secret compartment behind a false book in Eirie’s library at Highgate Hall contains Eirie’s diary. By reading this, the characters can deduce that she planned to murder Zael. Red herring: Zael’s brother was secretly in love with Eirie and has been caught spying on her. Reward: The captain of the guard offers the characters 100 gp if they can explain the death. white wedding Quest: Lord Alastin Gallehus is marrying Jaron Artes, the oldest son of a rich merchant family. The town is abuzz but Jaron’s father, Goran Artes, is troubled. It is rumoured that an assassin will attack during the wedding. Goran hires the characters as undercover bodyguards (dressed as guests or servants). During the wedding, the wealthy noble Sergon Reaves-Springwater is stabbed to death. Sergon is related to the Gallehus family and has traded with the Artes family. The guards stop people from leaving until the murder is solved. What the characters don’t know: Goran Artes was in debt to Sergon and hired an assassin to kill him. He pretended to worry about the assassin and employed the characters to give himself an alibi. Encounters: The murderer is an assassin, and Sergon’s bodyguard is a veteran. There are also twelve guards and five knights present at the wedding. The knights fight only if they are provoked or judge that honour calls for combat. Solution: The assassin is disguised as a musician and carries a dagger concealed in a fake flute. Red herring: One of the wedding guests is a bard who forged their invitation to mingle with the nobility. Rewards: Lord Alastin Gallehus rewards the characters with a crate that contains 12 bottles of Emerald Pegasi, an exquisite sparkling wine (worth 25 gp each). the warrior with the wyvern insignia Quest: Over 50 years have passed since the disappearance of the warrior Marda Riverheim, a member of a well-known retired adventuring band called the Argent Blade. Most believe that she was kidnapped, but her body was never found. Kelron Swart, an aged member of the band, has recently received several anonymous messages. The messages feature drawings of places from Kelron and Marda’s adventures together. Kelron is sure that it is Marda’s murderer who sends the messages to taunt him, so he hires the characters to investigate the matter. Kelron is convinced that his old friend is dead, but wants closure and can’t stand the idea that Marda’s killer is still out there. The other two remaining members of the Ardent Blade, Caliborn and Juliez, offer to help the characters with advice and information. What the characters don’t know: Marda is alive and lives in a village near Redbridge in the south. She fled after escaping a murderer and has been hiding ever since. Marda sent the drawings to Kelron to show him that she is alive, but she doesn’t know that he misunderstands her messages. Her attacker was Caliborn, who has been possessed by a fiend for half a century. Caliborn is responsible for the deaths of several other members of the adventuring band. He keeps an eye on the characters and strikes if they learn too much. Encounters: Caliborn has the statistics of an archmage. He is assisted by an invisible imp. Caliborn also hires two spies to shadow the characters. Solution: Marda suspected that someone in her group was evil and wrote down her misgivings in a journal. She left the journal behind when she MURDEROUS PLOT HOOKS www.midnight-tower.com www.midnight-tower.com 64
escaped, and it is currently hidden in the Argent Blade’s old headquarters. Red herring: Juliez, who is a a hot-tempered rogue, hides that she has spent time in prison for theft and unruly behaviour (carousing). Rewards: Kelron rewards the characters with a large diamond (worth 3,000 gp) and a silvered Longsword +2 looted from a frost giants’ fortress. murders under a full moon Quest: Some twelve years ago, a serial killer caused fear in Whiteport. Every full moon, people were kidnapped and later found dead in the Traders’ District. All victims had strange symbols carved into their bodies. The killer was discovered to be a deranged fisherman called Saltbjorn, who claimed the deaths were part of a ritual to “gain the deep one’s blessing”. The court sentenced him to lifetime imprisonment. Now the murderer appears to be back: Over the past five months, five people have vanished. The captain of the watch, Imilia Grenkvist, hires the characters to solve the case. What the characters don’t know: The imprisoned fisherman once found a strangely undamaged tome in a net. When he opened it, the forbidden knowledge on its pages swiftly drove him mad. However, the recent disappearances are due to a warlock called Molligan who hides in a secret laboratory in the sewers. She has found the same tome and plans to complete the ritual that the fisherman started by a mass sacrifice during the next full moon. The people she has kidnapped are locked away in a cell near her laboratory. Encounters: Molligan has the statistics of a mage. She is accompanied by her loyal servant Fritz, who has the statistics of a cult fanatic, and a bearded devil (the envoy of Molligan’s fiendish patron). Solution: Many disappearances have taken place near entrances to the sewers. There are also reports of nightly thefts of pricey groceries nearby (Molligan and Fritz have expensive habits). Red herring: A notoriously unpredictable wizard (archmage) called Grinnell Flameson lives near two of the places where people have vanished but is innocent. In addition, vigilante townsfolk (commoners) sneak around at night in the hope of catching the killer. Rewards: If the characters foil the warlock and rescue her captives, the captain rewards them with a golden ducat each with the town’s emblem (worth 250 gp each). These coins can be used as a token of honesty in the entire Eastern Farraway. She also offers a trained warhorse with saddle and barding to each character. the cursed statue Quest: Five months ago, the mayor, Jasminne Lysander, inherited a valuable jade statue from a distant relative who had passed away. Jasminne was found dead two months later in her bedchamber. There was no sign of foul play, so the death was believed natural. During the months that followed, the statue was inherited by three other relatives, all of whom perished within weeks of receiving the statue. There has been no trace of violence or poisoning. Mårten Lysander, who will inherit the statue next, fears that it is cursed. He hires the characters to get to the bottom of the mysterious deaths. What the characters don’t know: The murderer is Avery McGallion, a former-friendturned-enemy to the Lysander family. Avery has hired assassins who use insidious poisons to kill all the members of the Lysander bloodline as revenge for the injustice and disgrace Avery has suffered since they became enemies. Encounters: Avery has the statistics of a mage and has employed an assassin to poison the targets of the Lysander family. Avery is always protected by three personal guards who have the statistics of veterans. Solution: Tiny fragments of crushed glass can be found in the victims’ homes. The fragments are from the poison vials that the assassin used. This leads to a specialist glassblower, who points the characters to Avery if he’s threatened. Red herring: Faint magic can be detected in the jade statue, but this is the lingering effects of a century-old protective spell rather than a curse. Rewards: If the character exposes the alchemist’s deadly plot, Mårten offers the characters 1,000 gp in coins, three large framed oil paintings (worth 250 gp each), and a lavish meal at the Travelling Mermaid in the Dock district. www.midnight-tower.com www.midnight-tower.com 65
While some poisons require dealing with shady merchants of dubious morals, many murders have been carried out with the help of readily available poisons that can be found in cleaning cupboards, common stores, gardens, or in the wild. pure lye (contact/digested) Appearance: Pure lye consists of white flakes, with a similar appearance as salt flakes. In its pure form it has a chemical smell, but mixed with water, the smell disappears. Origin: Ordinary lye is often used for cleaning in large households. It is easily distilled into pure lye, which is used for tanning, soapmaking, and alchemy recipes. Effects: Creatures whose skin touches this poison must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw, taking 2d6 poison damage on a failed save, and half as much on a successful one. If the poison is ingested, the DC is 16 and the damage increases to 4d6. Cost: 10 sp (ordinary lye), 2 gp (pure lye). COMMON POISONS rat poison (digested) Appearance: A fine yellow powder similar to saffron in colour. Origin: One of the most common rat poisons is Dwarven Excellent Vermin Poison, made of a mineral by-product from mining. It is comparatively hard to detect and can be noticed only by succeeding on a DC 22 Wisdom (Perception) check. Effects: One hour after a creature has digested the poison, they must make a DC 14 Constitution saving throw. On a successful save, the creature feels slightly nauseated and the poison wears off. On a failed save, the creature takes 1d10 poison damage and must make a new Constitution saving throw one hour later. For each failed save, the creature takes additional poison damage and must repeat the saving throw after one hour. The damage increases by 1d10 every hour. The effects end if the creature succeeds on its saving throw, dies, or drinks an antidote. Cost: 5 gp false summer rose (inhaled) Appearance: False Summer Rose (also known as Widow’s Blessing or Heartbane) is a small and thorny pink rose. It often grows high in the mountains, on peaks and summits. The False Summer Rose is deceivingly similar to the harmless Summer Rose, which is a popular gift among smitten lovers. The two types can be told apart only by succeeding on a DC 24 Intelligence (Nature) check. Origin: False Summer Roses are native to Eastern Farraway. Effects: A creature that spends more than 30 minutes within 10 feet of a flowering False Summer Rose must make a DC 17 Constitution saving throw. On a successful save, the creature takes 3d6 poison damage and falls into a magical slumber as if they were affected by the spell sleep. If they are moved away from the flower, they wake up after 10 minutes. On a failed save, the creature drops to 0 hit points. Cost: 3,000 gp (it is rarely for sale). www.midnight-tower.com www.midnight-tower.com 66
pixie mushrooms (digested) Appearance: The Pixie Mushroom (or Fey Toadstool) is a white-spotted toadstool mushroom. It can be blue, purple, green, or a combination of these colours. Origin: Pixie Mushrooms are common in both Eastern and Western Farraway in shaded gardens as well as in the wild. Effects: Pixie Mushrooms are poisonous depending on how much you eat. A creature that digests too many mushrooms must make a DC 12 Constitution saving throw. On a successful save, the creature becomes drowsy and relaxed. It has -5 on all skills and abilities for the next hour but regains one level of exhaustion. On a failed save, the creature begins to hallucinate and takes 2d6 poison damage. If the save fails by more than 5, the creature is also affected by short-term madness. If the save fails by more than 10 or the roll is a natural 1, the creature takes 4d6 poison damage and is affected by indefinite madness. Cost: 1 gp adderwort (contact) Appearance: A fine, dark brown and slightly sticky powder. It smells faintly bitter and easily leaves smudges on surfaces. Origin: Adderwort is found in wild woods and urban gardens alike throughout Eastern Farraway. It spreads swiftly, thrives in most conditions, and is generally seen as a weed. Its black-brown roots are dried, ground, and mixed with water to treat lice infestations. Effects: A creature whose skin is in contact with undiluted Adderwort for more than 1 minute must make a DC 14 Constitution saving throw. On a successful save, the creature is Poisoned for 1d4 hours, after which the effect wears off. On a failed save, the creature takes 2d6 poison damage and is Poisoned for 3d10 hours. The creature is also unable to take a long rest due to severe nausea. If the contact is ongoing, the creature must make another saving throw every 12 hours. The DC increases by 2 for every new saving throw. Cost: None (the roots are easily found in nature). ettica (digested) Appearance: A transparent water-like liquid. It has a sharply pungent smell that disappears when the liquid is mixed with milk. Origin: Ettica is widely used by fishermen to preserve food, typically when preparing them for long transports or storage. It is created by boiling the bones of Silverpike, a large predatory fish, in vinegar for at least three hours. Effects: A creature that consumes more than an ounce of Ettica must make a DC 16 Constitution saving throw. On a successful save, it takes 1d8 poison damage. On a failed save, it takes 3d8 poison damage and falls unconscious for 1d10 hours. Cost: 1 sp lurkwar pepper (digested) Appearance: A bright orange powder. Origin: Lurkwar Berries are large red berries that are naturally extremely spicy. They can be harvested only on the Outer Islands, which are located far beyond the Farraway Islands. The berries are roasted in iron crucibles and ground into a highly concentrated spice that is used to season expensive dishes. In very small doses, Lurkwar Pepper is reinvigorating and refreshing (and devilishly spicy). Effects: A creature that digests more than a heaped teaspoon of Lurkwar Pepper must make a DC 22 Constitution saving throw. On a successful save, the creature takes 3d10 poison damage. On a failed save, the creature takes 6d10 poison damage and is Paralyzed for 2d10 hours. Cost: 100 gp www.midnight-tower.com www.midnight-tower.com 67
haunt 7th-level necromancy Casting Time: 1 hour Range: Touch Components: V, S, M (the skull of a knighted soldier, dirt from a grave less than a day old, and a black diamond worth at least 1,000 gp, all of which the spell consumes) Duration: 101 years or until dispelled You cause an area to be haunted by undead spirits that protect it from intruders. The spirits are hostile to all living creatures except for you and up to seven other creatures that you choose when casting the spell. The haunting can be removed only by the spell hallow or wish. The haunted area can be up to a total of 3,000 square feet. The haunting spirits protect the area in the following ways: ➛ Shadows fill the space and make it lightly obscured. The dimness affects magical sources of illumination (such as the spell light) and creatures that have darkvision. ➛ Persistent whispers, sighs, and murmurs give creatures that can hear them to have a -2 penalty on Wisdom saving throws and prevents them from sleeping in the area. ➛ Poltergeists fling loose items at intruders up to three times per day. Each time, the poltergeists can throw up to 1d8 items. They throw one item per round. Examples of possible items include books, chairs, trays, pots, and vases. Each item has +6 to hit and does 1d4 bludgeoning damage. The poltergeists can target only creatures inside the area. This effect requires enough items to be present. ➛ The area is protected by a ghost that attacks 1d20 minutes after an intruder enters the area. The ghost has advantage on Initiative checks and may retreat into solid objects to resume its attack later. The DM determines the ghost’s appearance. séance 1st-level necromancy Casting Time: 5 minutes Range: 10 feet Components: V, S, M (a piece of a dried heart and a tiny sharp hook) Duration: 1 minute You call upon a spirit of a deceased sentient creature to respond to your questions. The questions must be asked out loud by you, and you can ask no more than three questions. You must know the spirit’s true name for the spell to work. At the point when contact with the spirit is established, all sources of light within 15 feet of you are dimmed, and the area becomes lightly obscured. The spirit can communicate only by knocking against a surface within the range of the spell. It is limited to answering yes or no, with one knock implying “yes” and two knocks “no”. The spirit understands all languages, but knows only what it knew in life and may choose to lie. A spirit can be affected by this spell only once every week. If the spirit is evil or hostile to you, roll 1d20. On a roll of a natural 1, the spirit escapes the afterlife after the spell ends and appears as a ghost within 1 mile of you. summon undead familiar 1st-level necromancy Casting time: 1 hour Range: 10 feet Components: V, S, M (a pinch of soot from a funeral pyre and a ruby worth 10 gp, all of which the spell consumes) Duration: Instantaneous You gain the service of an undead familiar, a spirit that takes the skeletal form of one of the following creatures, chosen by you: bat, cat, raven, owl, poisonous snake, rat, or goat. It appears in an unoccupied space within range and has the statistics of the chosen beast, but its type is undead. The undead familiar has darkvision (120 feet) and resistance to necrotic damage. Your undead familiar acts independently but DARK SPELLS www.midnight-tower.com www.midnight-tower.com 68
obeys your commands. While it can’t attack, it rolls its own initiative and acts on its own turns. When the familiar drops to 0 hit points, the skeleton falls apart and turns to ash. It reappears after you cast this spell again. As long as your undead familiar is within 100 feet of you, you can communicate with it telepathically. As an action, you can also choose to see through its eyes. While doing so, you are oblivious to your own senses. A spell with the “touch” range cast by you can be channelled by your undead familiar to a target. The familiar must be within 100 feet of you and use its reaction to channel the spell. Any attack rolls required are made using your modifiers. You can temporarily dismiss your undead familiar by spending an action to spirit it away to the Plane of Shadow, and summon it back again to a location within 100 feet of you by spending another action. You can also spend an action to permanently dismiss your familiar. Casting this spell again has no effect unless your familiar has been destroyed, in which case the same familiar reappears in a shape selected by you from the list above. You can have only one familiar at a time. tormentor 4th-level necromancy Casting Time: 1 action Range: 30 feet Components: V, S, M (a miniature curved blade and a tear from a celestial creature) Duration: Concentration, Up to 1 minute You conjure an avatar of death that attacks a target of your choice. The avatar is a semitransparent withered humanoid that wears a hooded dark cloak and wields a large scythe. It has a flying speed of 40 feet and can move through other creatures and objects as if they were difficult terrain. The avatar materialises in an unoccupied space within range. It makes two attacks with its scythe at the beginning of your turn against its target until the spell ends or the target dies. Its scythe is a magical weapon. The avatar’s attack bonus is equal to your spellcasting ability modifier + your proficiency bonus. On a hit, it deals 3d8 necrotic damage. The avatar sees invisible creatures. At Higher Levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 4th. winged herald 3rd-level conjuration (ritual) Casting Time: 1 action Range: Unlimited Components: V, S, M (a black feather and a normal silver coin) Duration: Up to 1 hour You summon a magical raven to be your messenger. Your message must be written on a single parchment and rolled up before the spell is cast. The raven arrives from the nearest shadow when the spell is cast. It picks up the message in its claws and departs back into the shadow. It then jumps from shadow to shadow and takes shortcuts on the Plane of Shadow to deliver the message. You decide the recipient of the message when casting the spell. The recipient can be anywhere on any plane of existence, including magical or extra-dimensional places such as those created by the spell imprisonment or the Donjon card in a Deck of Many Things. If the intended recipient is dead and its soul has been destroyed, the raven caws mournfully three times when summoned before it fades away. You can instruct the raven to return with a reply. In this case, the raven reappears no more than 1 hour later with the reply written on the other side of the parchment. The raven has an Intelligence score of 14 and understands all languages. It is large for its kind, and its cunning eyes glow pale red in the dark. www.midnight-tower.com www.midnight-tower.com 69 undead familiar

One time the raven caws, and good fortune awaits you Two times the raven caws, and dark days ahead of you Three times the raven caws, and death stalks you. – From an old nursery rhyme (author unknown) a winged omen Black ravens have long been viewed as portentous in the North Star Region. A dead raven is a sign of ill fortune and impending death, while ravens roosting near one’s home mean future wealth and great happiness. In the olden days, many kept ravens as companions, but also as protection against bad luck and dark magic. Tame ravens are rarer today, but some are familiars of mages and druids, or as pets in rural areas or remote inns. In addition, many northern establishments have painting of ravens in their common rooms or a stuffed specimen perched on their bar, as this is considered to bring good luck to travellers. It is also still a tradition to bury dead ravens under the foundation of a new house as a ward against hardship. Similarly, small tokens, such as a bottle that contains the bones of a raven, are sometimes placed under the stairs or the hearth for luck. The tokens are often presented to someone who has moved into a new home, to newly wedded couples, or as a housewarming gift together with a miniature bag of salt and seven copper pieces. reverence The worship of ravens is common in the North Star Region, especially among barbarians and members of the Nightwing Clan. They often pray to animal totems that represent the mysterious and ominous animal spirit of the raven. Other deities who are closely associated with ravens include Odin, the Raven Queen, and the Morrigan. Of these three deities, Odin is by far the most commonly worshipped in the North Star Region, LEGEND & LORE: RAVEN FOLKLORE although the Queen of Ravens is also venerated by many wizards and warlocks. The Morrigan is an ancient goddess of war, destiny, and death. She is nearly forgotten but still has a small number of devoted followers, and there are rumours of a secret paladin order dedicated to her faith. the raven day The Raven Day is a holiday celebrated on the first Friday after the autumn equinox in September. It is generally a merry day on which most people don’t work, and the weather is said to indicate what the rest of the winter will be like. Children often dress up in black feathered costumes and wander from house to house, begging for sweets and coins. Inns and taverns traditionally serve “Raven’s Mead”, which is the first mead to be brewed after midsummer. According to tradition, the village elder is the first to sample the mead. This is often done in a crowded inn or on the packed village green. The merry crowd must ask three times if the mead is good or bad before the elder replies. The village elder usually pretends not to hear the first two times, although sometimes the elder is in fact partly deaf. If the mead is proclaimed to be good (which usually is the case, regardless of the quality of the mead), people cheer loudly, as this is viewed as a sign of good fortune and a mild winter. heralds of warfare According to legend in the North Star Region, war has always been predicted by ravens. It is said that when ravens disappear from an area, it is because they are drawn to a battle nearby. Likewise, when great numbers of ravens gather in one place, it is thought that they have foreseen a huge battle or calamity to take place, and that they anticipate plenty of carrion to feed on. Most of this is considered folklore, but several scholars have nevertheless discovered ancient documents and diaries that mention how all ravens vanished from the North Star Region just before the start of the Second Winter War. www.midnight-tower.com 73
