Cúchulainn, the ImpureScion created to rid the world of its impurities by swallowing them within himself, in opposition to Nabriales the Majestic, scion of light. The world, however, was more filled with impurity and corruption than even the gods dared imagine, and having swallowed it all, the once beautiful Cúchulainn was transformed into a hideous thing, a deity of filth, and so did he turn against his creators. Wherever his feet should fall, there all life withers to dust. – KenjiGoombah

SPECIAL ABILITIES

Impurity (Su)

This Burst Mode lets Cúchulainn emboldens his impurity. For a number of rounds equal to 1 + 1 round per every caster level, when Cuchulainn makes an attack with his melee attacks with a saving throw look below (DC 25), he can forego the additional damage to inflict a status condition determined by a d8 roll (1 – Silence for 1d6 rounds/Will save, 2 – Disabled for 1d4 rounds/Will save, 3 – Sleep for 1d4 rounds/Will save, 4 – Sickened for 1d4 rounds/Fort Save, 5 – Immobilized for 1d6 rounds/Fort save, 6 – Poisoned for 2d4 rounds/Fort save, 7 – Slowed for 1d6 rounds/Will save, 8 – Zombie for 2d4 rounds/Fort save). This limit break requires only a swift action to activate.

Dark Dreams (Su)

Once every 1d4 rounds as a standard action, Cúchulainn’s lower mouth opens to unleash a shadow in a 30 ft.- cone burst that deals 10d6 points of shadow damage with Reflex save (DC 25) for half damage. Those who fail the Reflex save must also make a Will save (DC 25) or receive the Sleep status effect for 1d4 rounds. Blue mages may learn this ability as a 7th level spell (Knowledge: Arcana DC 29).

Night Terror (Su)

Anyone within 15 ft. of Cúchulainn that is asleep, as a swift action, Cúchulainn may inflict 1d6+6 points of Shadow damage on the sleeping target.

Poisonous Touch (Ex)

When Cúchulainn makes a Physical touch attack, he can choose to forego the shadow damage to inflict the Poisoned status effect on his target for 1d6 rounds. A DC 26 Fortitude save negates the effect.
