March 2026 – Notes From Pavis

Spirit abilities, Curse and Bless abilities and Madness Types can form very diverse encounters. Here are some combinations I have created.

Poltergeist Intensity 1,2,3,4	Poltergeist is a spirit that is angry at something and reflects it with its actions – throwing things at targets. Escalation of its attacks could be: -> Pebbles and dust first -> Pots and tools flying ->Bricks and stones -> Furniture moving -> Entire rooms becoming hazardous Here some examples A storm of small stones flies around, knife or tool whips across the room, Pottery explodes against the wall, Heavy rock or brick launched, Furniture slides violently
Borrowed Mask – Puppeteer Spirit	The Borrowed Mask of Qadish is a subtle parasitic spirit that slips unseen into living hosts, hiding behind their eyes while leaving no trace to magic or sense. It bends perception with delicate illusions, nudging allies toward doubt, error, and quiet betrayal rather than open violence. In the crowded streets and shadowed courts of a big city, it thrives on misjudgment, turning small mistakes into cascading disasters. Those touched by it seem almost themselves, save for a faint hesitation, as if something else briefly considers each word before it is spoken. The spirit uses Covert to remain completely undetectable to magical and spiritual observation. It uses Puppeteer to take control of an innocent bystander or even one of the player characters. While hidden within its host, it projects mental illusions using Glamour to distract, disorient, or trick the party into attacking the wrong targets
Devourer of Fetishes – Cannibal Spirit	The Fetish-Eater of the Hollow Gourd is a predatory spirit that feeds not on flesh, but on the bound spirits of animists, following the invisible cords that tie charm to soul. It drives lesser spirits into frenzied servitude, overwhelming its prey before turning on weakened bindings to consume them and restore its own power. Where it feeds, fetishes grow cold and silent, their once-living presence reduced to empty husks. In Hombori Tondo, its passing leaves behind a quiet dread, as if the unseen world itself has been thinned and something vital has been taken.
Agony Neverending – Pain spirit	Agony Neverending is a relentless torment-spirit that binds itself to unresolved suffering, returning again and again to collect what it believes is owed. It can tear a victim’s spirit partly from their body, forcing them to endure pain that seeps into both flesh and soul, turning even simple actions into trials of will. Its Wither gnaws directly through the body as if reopening an ancient wound, while its presence feels like an unseen ledger quietly counting each moment of agony. Though it can be driven off, it always returns, drawn back by the same unresolved debt until it is finally settled or bound. • Marks a victim first: It fixates on one target tied to its “debt” and stalks them across scenes rather than attacking randomly. • Opens with Discorporate: Attempts to drag the victim into spirit combat, isolating them from allies and forcing a Willpower contest on its terms. • Applies Pain early: Cripples the target’s effectiveness so most actions fail unless they rely on strong Willpower. • Uses Wither opportunistically: While the victim struggles, it inflicts unavoidable physical damage to wear them down steadily. • Avoids fair fights: Targets the weakest Willpower, withdraws if pressured, and returns later rather than risking destruction. • Learns between encounters: On each return, it adapts to the party’s tactics, focusing on prior vulnerabilities.
Whisper of the False Hand – Curse Spirit	The Whisper of the False Hand is a subtle and insidious spirit that nests within trust itself, slipping unnoticed into companions, retainers, or even the party, where it slowly unravels certainty and skill. It feeds on hesitation and error, laying a creeping curse that dulls reflexes, weakens strikes, and erodes the victim’s effectiveness day by day without revealing its presence. Hidden by perfect Covert, it cannot be sensed or revealed by ordinary magical means, leaving only a trail of small but troubling failures—missed steps, misjudged blows, and decisions that feel wrong only after they are made. Under pressure, it tightens its grip, flooding the victim with a sudden surge of Confusion that twists intent at the worst possible moment, turning allies into targets or causing vital actions to falter. It does not seek destruction directly, but engineers it through mistake, mistrust, and timing, ensuring that when harm comes, it appears to be the fault of those involved. Friendships fracture, commands fail, and suspicion spreads long before anyone suspects a spirit at work. In the crowded intrigue of Hombori Tondo—among guild rivalries, court politics, and fragile alliances—it is especially feared, for it turns loyalty into liability and leaves behind a single, devastating question: was it truly the spirit… or did you choose wrong? The spirit uses Curse to lower a victim’s key stats, such as reducing their Action Points, Damage Modifier, or a specific Combat Style. Combined with Covert, the spirit can perfectly hide from active magical or spiritual observation by opposing the observer’s Perception. Adding the Passion: Confusion causes the victim to do the exact incorrect thing during times of stress, such as striking the wrong target in combat or casting the wrong spell.
Fatal Mirage – Curse spirit	While traveling through a harsh wilderness or desert, the party is stalked by a spirit that curses their Endurance or Survival skills. It uses Glamour to project hallucinatory illusions of an oasis or a rescue party, intentionally misdirecting the hosts further into the wilderness. As they wander, the spirit uses Drain to sap their Fatigue, slowly bleeding them of their life essence while keeping itself fully empowered for Spirit Combat
Curse of the Dunes – Curse Spirit	The Curse of the Dunes is a vast curse-spirit that reshapes ruined desert sites into a shifting labyrinth of sand and broken stone, where every path betrays those who follow it. A suffocating aura of dread hangs over its domain, driving the weak to flee and sapping the resolve of those who remain. Within its grasp, unseen curses erode strength and fortune, leaving victims slower to heal and more prone to fatal mistakes. It does not hunt directly, but traps and exhausts its prey, until they realize too late that there is no path out—only the illusion of one. Curse spirit that affects Luck points when possessing.
Warrior of Undeath	Fonritan slave soldier zombie possessed by large undeath spirit of intensity 3. Possession gives 3 points of Warding ability against spells and 9 to strength and con
Whispering Betrayer – Deceit Madness Spirit	Deceit induces the host to lie, cheat, and steal no matter the consequences, though they will try to conceal this subterfuge. Madness forces the host into irrational or gibbering behavior during times of stress, changing their perceptions or instilling paranoia. May rationalize its deceit due to its madness spirit type. For example hydrophobic would do its treachery to avoid getting near water.
Mnemonic Parasite – Deceit Spirit (Medium and Large)	While in control, it performs a single, carefully chosen deceit each week—preferably one that ripples outward into maximum disruption—then withdraws, feeding on the confusion and consequences echoing in the host’s mind. The host retains no memory of the act and instinctively fills the void with invented explanations, growing increasingly certain of things that never happened. Over time, these false recollections tangle with reality, creating contradictions, misplaced blame, and quiet paranoia. The spirit remains perfectly Covert, leaving no trace unless actively sought and successfully opposed against its stealth.
Blue Ghost – an Artmali Guardian Spirit	The Blue Ghosts are formidable spectral entities that act as a test of strength and a gateway for those seeking the Isle of Artmal If the person loses the spirit combat with them he is cursed by losing permanently some of his might – Curse of Blue Ghost
Virtue Eater – Passion spirit	Virtue Eater is a covert possessing spirit that seeks hosts with strong convictions, twisting their noblest Passions into destructive compulsions while clouding judgment with subtle confusion. It feeds by driving the host to make morally “justified” but disastrous choices, especially under pressure, leaving behind regret, contradictions, and carefully invented memories to mask the truth. In play, it rarely acts openly; instead it steers conversations, decisions, and loyalties so that the host undermines allies, escalates conflicts, or sabotages their own goals while believing they are acting rightly. Tactics: it targets high-stakes moments (negotiations, accusations, crises), amplifies a single Passion into absolutism, induces Confusion to force the worst possible choice, and then retreats into cover, letting consequences unfold while it feeds on the fallout.
Foundation Eater – a city spirit (Medium, Large,Huge))	In a Bronze Age city —where massive mud-brick structures, subterranean vaults, and heavy stone columns dominate the skyline—a spirit capable of devouring architecture is a weapon of mass destruction. Often whispered to be a corrupted earth elemental or a minor manifestation tied to the Dark Cults (who seeks to erode civilization from within), this entity is highly prized by the city’s more cutthroat factions. The Mechanics: Animate (Mud-Brick/Stone): The spirit uses the Animate (Substance) ability to seep into the mortar, load-bearing wooden pillars, and bronze reinforcements of citys buildings. Curse (Structural Decay): Rather than cursing a living victim, the spirit’s Curse ability is directed at the inanimate structure. It drastically lowers the Armour Points (AP) and Hit Points (HP) by the intensity of the spirit of the building materials, causing ancient stone to turn to brittle sand, wood to instantly dry-rot, and bronze to rapidly oxidize. Steadfast: The spirit has been bound using complex sorcerous wards or an Enchant (Binding) matrix created by a master occultist. This makes it Steadfast—completely immune to standard Exorcism or Dismiss Elemental miracles. It can only be removed by destroying its physical fetish (often a cursed foundation brick planted on-site) or by reducing its Magic Points to zero in brutal, close-quarters Spirit Combat.
Vermin Lord Spirit	The VerminLord In the squalid, maze-like depths of the sprawling slum—the Vermin Demagogue is whispered to be a corrupted nature spirit of the city’s ancient sewers, or perhaps a minor manifestation sent by the Dark Cult to erode the city’s civilization from within. It feeds on the misery of the city’s lowest castes. The Mechanics Domination (Vermin): The spirit possesses the Domination (Specific Species) ability. In the city, it uses this to telepathically command the swarms of giant and diseased rats that infest the city’s subterranean underbelly. Passion (Hate): The spirit covertly possesses a host and weaponizes the Passion (Hate) ability. It broadcasts a supernatural fury that amplifies the simmering resentments of the oppressed kadam (slaves) and the disenfranchised Blue Folk. Anyone failing a Willpower resistance roll is overwhelmed by a temporary, murderous Hate ( Nobility) Passion, driving them to uncharacteristic violence against the ruling elite. Miasma: The spirit projects a Miasma of supernatural dread in a radius around its host. Anyone caught in this aura—including battle-hardened mercenaries or city guards—must succeed in an opposed Willpower roll or break ranks and flee in abject terror.
