Adversaries Designed by Yo Pomdpin

Adversary overview

An Elf turned Gorgon, cursed by a mysterious artifacts, trying to find a cure

Elysande once found an ancient artifact that cursed her horribly in a grotesque, chaotic, gorgon-like form, filling her up with an anger she has difficulty controlling. She has since been travelling the world to find a way to reverse it. While looking reasonably young, for an elf, Elysande is far older than any known living creature.

Features

Passives

  • Relentless (2)

    This adversary can be spotlighted up to 2 times per GM turn. Spend Fear as usual to spotlight them.

  • Chaotic Gaze

    When Elysande takes damage from an attack within Close range, you can spend a Fear to force the attacker to make an Instinct Reaction Roll. On a failure, they mark a HP, roll a d4 to determine the type of Petrification (Stone, Ice, Wood, Metal) and the GM starts a Petrification Countdown (4). This countdown ticks down when the Gorgon is attacked which further the Petrification. When it triggers, the target must make a death move. If the Gorgon is defeated, all petrification countdowns end but the Petrification stays for as many long rest as the countdown ticked down.
