| Characters with ranks in [[Knowledge (arcana)]] or [[Knowledge (Religion)]] can learn more about wicker men. When a character makes a successful skill check, the following lore is revealed, including the information from lower DCs.
| |
| | |
| [[Knowledge (arcana)]]
| |
| | |
| DC 21: This massive, burning, wooden structure is a [[magic|magically]] [[animated]] [[construct]] called a wicker man. This result reveals all [[construct]] traits.
| |
| | |
| DC 26: A wicker man is a [[mindless]] combatant that follows the commands of its [[crafter|creator]]. The size of a [[giant]], it attacks by crushing foes with its massive, wooden fists. A wicker man is immune to almost all forms of [[magic]], but it suffers damage from [[Entangle|entangle spells]]. This result also reveals the procedure for creating wicker men. The woven timber comprising a wicker man’s body deflects most glancing blows, and [[piercing weapons]] simply slide between the gaps, leaving the wicker man undamaged.
| |
| | |
| DC 31: When a wicker man slams foes up to the size of a [[horse]] with its fist, it often grabs the foe, then stuffs the creature into the hollow [[cage]] in its [[torso]]. Trapped victims can try to hack their way free, and a [[warp wood]] or [[wood shape]] spell briefly forces the [[cage]] [[door]] open.
| |
| | |
| DC 36: If a wicker man is exposed to [[fire]], it is unharmed but bursts into flame. The wicker man continues to burn for ten minutes. During this time, any creature struck by the wicker man’s attacks, trapped inside its torso cage, or that otherwise comes into physical contact with the wicker man is exposed to its searing flames.
| |
| | |
| [[Knowledge (religion)]]
| |
| | |
| DC 21: Wicker men are usually constructed, and then ritually burned, by [[divine spellcaster|divine spellcasters]] to commemorate seasonal religious [[festival|festivals]].
| |
| | |
| DC 26: A wicker man’s torso is hollow, and [[criminal|criminals]] or other undesirables are usually sealed inside during the festival. When the wicker man is set ablaze, these unfortunates become live [[sacrifice|sacrifice]].
| |
| | |
| DC 31: [[Druid|Druids]] or similar [[spellcaster|spellcasters]] can sometimes animate wicker men through the sacrifice of [[innocents]] to hunt down escaped sacrificial victims.
