<!--
As Ianthe the Threefold Death (3.5e NPC) article.
-->

==Combat Tactics==

Possessing others is a priority.  If she cannot leave a battle with a new body, she will be trapped as a ghost until she does.

==Details==

As [[Ianthe the Threefold Death (3.5e NPC)|Ianthe the Threefold Death]], with the following ghostly additions and changes...

'''{{Anchor|Channel Energy}} {{Su}}:''' 10/day.  A 30 ft radius burst of 6d6 negative energy as a standard action, Will save for half DC 23.

'''{{Anchor|Draining Touch}} {{Su}}:''' The ghost died while insane or diseased. It gains a touch attack that drains 1d4 points from any one ability score it selects on a hit. On each such successful attack, the ghost heals 5 points of damage to itself. When a ghost makes a draining touch attack, it cannot use its standard ghostly touch attack.

'''{{Anchor|Malevolence}} {{Su}}:''' The ghost's jealousy of the living is particularly potent. Once per round, the ghost can merge its body with a creature on the Material Plane. This ability is similar to a magic jar spell (caster level 10th or the ghost's Hit Dice, whichever is higher), except that it does not require a receptacle. To use this ability, the ghost must be adjacent to the target. The target can resist the attack with a successful Will save. A creature that successfully saves is immune to that same ghost's malevolence for 24 hours.

'''{{Anchor|Telekinesis}} {{Su}}:''' The ghost's death involved great physical trauma. The ghost can use telekinesis as a standard action once every 1d4 rounds (caster level 12th or equal to the ghost's HD, whichever is higher).

'''{{Anchor|Spontaneous Casting}} {{Su}}:''' As an evil cleric, she can convert spells into "inflict" spells spontaneously.

'''{{Anchor|Domains}}:''' She has the Slavery Subdomain and Tactics Subdomain.  They grant the following powers...

''{{Anchor|Slavery- Touch of Law}} {{Sp}}:'' 12/day.  You can touch a willing creature as a standard action, infusing it with the power of divine order and allowing it to treat all attack rolls, skill checks, ability checks, and saving throws for 1 round as if the natural d20 roll resulted in an 11.

''{{Anchor|Slavery- Master's Yoke}} {{Su}}:'' 2/day.  At 8th level you can attempt to assert your dominance over any visible creature within 30 feet by declaring the target your property. The target can resist this effect with a Will save (DC = 10 + 1/2 your cleric level + your Wisdom modifier aka DC 22). If the target fails the save, it is affected as if by dominate monster for a number of rounds equal to 1/2 your cleric level (6 rounds), save that the target can choose to ignore any order you give and instead take 2 points of Constitution damage and become staggered for 1 round. This is a language-based mind-affecting effect.

Slavery's spells are 1st—''[[SRD:Charm Person|charm person]]'', 2nd—''[[SRD:Align Weapon|align weapon (law only)]]'', 3rd—''[[SRD:Magic Circle Against Chaos|magic circle against chaos]]'', 4th—''[[SRD:Order's Wrath|order's wrath]]'', 5th—''[[SRD:Dominate Person|dominate person]]'', and 6th—''[[SRD:Hold Monster|hold monster]]''.

''{{Anchor|Tactics- Seize the Initiative}} {{Su}}:'' 12/day.  Whenever you and your allies roll for initiative, you can grant one ally within 30 feet the ability to roll twice and take either result.

''{{Anchor|Tactics- Weapon Master}} {{Su}}:'' Up to 12 rounds.  At 8th level, as a swift action, you gain the use of one combat feat for a number of rounds per day equal to your cleric  level. These rounds do not need to be consecutive and you can change the feat chosen each time you use this ability. You must meet the prerequisites to use this feat.

Tactics's spells are 1st—''[[SRD:Magic Weapon|magic weapon]]'', 2nd—''[[SRD:Aid|aid]]'', 3rd—''[[SRD:Magic Vestment|magic vestment]]'', 4th—''[[SRD:Divine Power|divine power]]'', 5th—''[[SRD:Greater Command|greater command]]'', and 6th—''[[SRD:Blade Barrier|blade barrier]]''.

'''Crown of the Undying Kingdom:''' User is under a constant ''veil of undeath''<sup>SpC</sup> spell, and gains ''[[SRD:Animate Dead|animate dead]]'' and ''[[SRD:Create undead|create undead]]'' as SLAs at will.  This grants a host of undead immunities, and makes it so the user is healed by negative energy and harmed by positive energy.  She does not gain the Undead type.  She also gets the domain power of the Deathbound domain (the limit for creating undead animated with spells increases to three times your caster level instead of the normal two times caster level).  When the user dies, they immediately rise as a ghost with ''malevolence'' and two other manifestation powers (typically ''draining touch'' and ''telekinesis'' for Ianthe).  See below for ghost stats.

'''Houserules:''' He gains an extra 1st level feat, 32 point buy, and maximum hp per HD.  Mundane ammo is not tracked unless it costs more than 1 gp a piece.  +1/+1 bonuses from leveling.  The initial +1 enhancement to items can be waived before making it magic.
