Mist Phantom[edit]

In certain foggy areas they talk about ghosts which will cut you to pieces or strange stalkers following you and yet when you turn around, there is nothing there. These things are more than mere paranoia. In certain places where the air is thick, mist phantoms arise to haunt the grounds. These invisible beings are not actually incorporeal, but they are hard to see.

Mist phantoms aren't creatures per se. They are either magical effects given life, or brief ghosts bound to enhanced smoke and fog. Either way, these invisible foes prove quite a challenge. The mist phantom may be short lived as the fog which spawned it, but some keep areas of permanent fog (naturally or otherwise) where the mist phantoms propagate en masse.

Creating a Mist Phantom[edit]

Mist phantoms are an acquired template which can be added to any corporeal creature.

Size and Type[edit]

As base creature.

Special Qualities[edit]

Encroaching Fogbound Soul (Ex): The mist which gives birth to mist phantoms is required for their existence, so it makes sense to try to clear the fog. However, regardless if the fog is magical or not the gas seems more persistent than normal. Effects which would dispel the fog (typically sufficient fire or wind) will clear the area. Mist phantoms cannot exist in areas without fog and "wink out" of existence like a ghost in an antimagic field until they move back into the mist. To that end, unless the entire mass of fog has been destroyed the fog will return to its original thickness in 1d4 rounds.

Naturally Invisible (Ex): A mist phantom is always under the effects of greater invisibility.

Target Disruption (Ex): A mist phantom cannot be targeted by any spells or effects which require a target. Area effects, and effects which require attack rolls, function as normal.

See In Fog (Ex): A mist phantom can see through any gas, fog, smoke, or similar effect.

Environment[edit]

Foggy Areas.

Challenge Rating[edit]

+2

Treasure[edit]

None. On death the mist phantom and all its equipment vanish into fog.

Alignment[edit]

As base creature.

Advancement[edit]

As base creature.
