Terrifying Gaze Paralyzed with fear for 1 round30 feet意志 DC 14 negates. This is a mind–affecting fear effect. A creature that succeeds at its saving throw is immune to the vukodlak's gaze for 24 hours. The save DC is Charisma–based.

Vukodlaks spawn from the malignant spirits of powerfulintelligentwolf like creatures such as worgswinter wolvesor werewolves. Often they arise from such creatures that—through desperation or depravity—fed on undead f lesh or drank the blood of a vampiric creature. Their blackened souls arise after deathtwisting their bodies into monstrous shapes. Like vampiresvukodlaks share an insatiable thirst for blood.

Vukodlaks measure 8 feet long and 6 feet tall at the shoulderand they weigh 1,000 pounds. A vukodlak typically walks on all foursand from a distance can easily be mistaken for a largeshaggy horse. Howeverit has a distinct wolf like muzzle filled with sharp canine teethas well as other wolfish features. Vukodlaks possess monstrous strengthmaking them ideal mounts for powerful undead masters or other evil creatures. While serving as mountsthey keep to all foursand might easily be mistaken for worgs or great fanged horses. Masters seeking to control vukodlaks find the most success relying on fear and intimidationas well as providing a constant source of blood for the creature to feed upon. Vukodlaks share a natural kinship with vampires and often serve them willingly.

Vukodlaks hunger for bloodgorging themselves rather than saving victims to feed on later. When feedingthey can prove difficult to command. Riders who are not careful in their attempts to restrain a hungry vukodlak risk having their mount turn on them. While vukodlaks can go days without feedingthey gradually become weaker if they do not feed dailyand have difficulty operating on anything other than pure instinct. Though intelligentvukodlaks rarely think or plan aheadinstead focusing on feeding or obeying their masters' commands.

Vukodlaks without masters often form small packs. These packs annihilate all life in entire areasoverfeeding until destroyed or forced to move on. Vukodlaks hate sunlight and hunt only at nightmaking their lairs in deep caves or ruins. They don't care for treasureanything of worth found in a vukodlak lair is simply something its latest victim was carrying that the beast couldn't eat.

Although vukodlaks don't appear undead at first glanceany creature that wounds one or finds a vukodlak corpse can tell they're not living creatures—their bodies being largely hollowfilled with the rottenstinking remains of organs that ceased functioning long ago.
