Rage of Spirits Two Actions The nemhaith's bound spirits rage and smash everything in a 30-foot emanation.

Throw Spirits Single Action The nemhaith directs its bound spirits as a group to move up to 1 mile away (they have a fly Speed of 60 feet).

The nemhaith regains these abilities when the spirits return to the nemhaith's space. Captive Spirits The ritual to form a nemhaith doesn't require consent from its spirits, which might come as a shocking betrayal. A nemhaith can grow more powerful as living creatures drained of life by its touch join its coterie of spirits. ",
