Carrion King
Huge fey magical beast (plant)
Level 20 Solo Controller XP 14000

Traits

Fungal Bed

When the Carrion King rolls initiative, an area of living fungus appears in a close burst 5 and remains until the end of the encounter. The area is difficult terrain for enemies. If a creature makes an area or close attack that includes this area, the creature can target the Carrion King.

Unstoppable

If the Carrion King starts his turn unable to take actions, drop the body recharges, and the Carrion King can use it as no action. If the Carrion King does so, unless he spends an action point, he can take only a minor action and a standard action that turn.

Move Actions

ᗕ Drop the Body ✦ Encounter

Effect: Close burst 1; the burst creates a zone of fungal growth that lasts until the end of the Carrion King's next turn. Any creature that enters or starts its turn in the zone is dazed while the zone persists. After the Carrion King creates the zone, he is removed from play, harmful effects on him end, and he reappears in a space in the fungal bed area.
