How to use this creature in practice
Stack spellcasting or active support
Abyssal Envoy: before activating, compare immediate damage with support or control from its actual ability pool. Choose an eligible target and an opportunity to exploit the effect in subsequent actions.
Watch for: Base stats are not the final exchange result. Account for retaliation, current creature count, target immunity and subsequent action order.
Timing, specific abilities and the follow-up plan
Speed 5 and Initiative 8 govern different parts of the turn. This profile lists ability costs of 3 Focus charges; compare them with the shared pool, cooldown and competing activations.
- Summoning Rite: Envoy: Once in the battle, replaces a friendly corpse with Envoy. The resulting stack has half the fallen stack’s original health, capped at the summoners’ current creature count. These summons persist after combat. Cost: 3 Focus charge(s); cooldown: 3 round(s).
- Will of the Abyss: Adds one turn immediately after its first turn. This timing differs from an unlimited recurring supply of extra turns. Cost: 3 Focus charge(s); cooldown: 3 round(s).
