This grizzled warrior’s skin and hair are a shocking, sickly white. Blue veins are clearly visible beneath the leathery-looking skin. Gauzy, black-yellow eyes glare out from beneath his wiry eyebrows. Claw-like fingernails tip the ends of his powerful, gnarled digits. His breastplate is tarnished and stained but still sturdy, his cloak is dusty and a fine bastard sword and throwing-axe hang from his belt.<\/span><\/p>\n

COMBAT
If Attacked Herr Stieglitz will attempt to flee combat to attack again from surprise or with his family at his side.
Given opportunity he will quaff his potion of haste, which will last for 5 rounds.
If able to sneak up on an opponent he will approach the weakest-looking one and attempt to perform a full attack with bastard sword and a slam attack as his off-hand weapon. His hope is that this will slay them and they will rise in 1d4 rounds as a wight to fight at his side.
If fighting with his family he will try to spring attack the party from behind their ranks.<\/p>\n

Create Spawn (Su):<\/span> Any humanoid slain by the Baron becomes a wight in 1d4 rounds. Spawn are under the command of the wight that created them and remain enslaved until its death. They do not possess any of the abilities they had in life.
Energy Drain (Su):<\/span> Living creatures hit by the Baron\u2019s slam attack gain one negative level. The DC is 13 for the Fortitude save to remove a negative level. The save DC is Charisma-based. For each such negative level bestowed, the wight gains 5 temporary hit points.
Skills: Wights have a +8 racial bonus on Move Silently checks.<\/p>\n

Undead Type: <\/span>Undead are once-living creatures animated by spiritual or supernatural forces.
Traits: An undead creature possesses the following traits (unless otherwise noted in a creature\u2019s entry).
\u2014No Constitution score.
\u2014Darkvision out to 60 feet.
\u2014Immunity to all mind-affecting effects (charms, compulsions, phantasms, patterns, and morale effects).
\u2014Immunity to poison, sleep effects, paralysis, stunning, disease, and death effects.
\u2014Not subject to critical hits, nonlethal damage, ability drain, or energy drain. Immune to damage to its physical ability scores (Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution), as well as to fatigue and exhaustion effects.
\u2014Cannot heal damage on its own if it has no Intelligence score, although it can be healed. Negative energy (such as an inflict spell) can heal undead creatures. The fast healing special quality works regardless of the creature\u2019s Intelligence score.
\u2014Immunity to any effect that requires a Fortitude save (unless the effect also works on objects or is harmless).
\u2014Not at risk of death from massive damage, but when reduced to 0 hit points or less, it is immediately destroyed.
\u2014Not affected by raise dead and reincarnate spells or abilities. Resurrection and true resurrection can affect undead creatures. These spells turn undead creatures back into the living creatures they were before becoming undead.
\u2014Undead do not breathe, eat, or sleep.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
