description: 'Soulbound dolls are eerie mannequins or playthings that have been imbued
|
|
with a small piece of a deceased mortal''s soul. These little constructs are created
|
|
for a variety of reasons—such as to serve as companions or servants—but their free
|
|
will means their obedience to their creators is hardly a given. Followers of Pharasma
|
|
generally abhor soulbound dolls, viewing them as a perversion of the natural cycle
|
|
of souls, and those who worship the Lady of Graves see the destruction of a soulbound
|
|
doll, regardless of the construct''s alignment, as an important service to the Great
|
|
Beyond. Soulbound dolls are the simplest in a series of soulbound constructs including
|
|
human-sized soulbound mannequins, powerful soulbound shells, and sentinel soulbound
|
|
terra-cotta warriors. Creating them from unwilling living creatures is evil, and
|
|
an unwilling donor can resist the process with a successful Will save against the
|
|
creator''s Craft DC, ruining the doll if not preventing the donor''s death. A non-evil
|
|
doll can only be crafted from the soul of a person who has given consent to such
|
|
use before their death occurred
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Soulbound dolls encountered by adventurers are typically guardians of some sort;
|
|
despite their diminutive size, the soul fragment''s power makes the doll''s flst
|
|
more dangerous than a casual observer would expect. Further, it grants the doll
|
|
a single spell of outsized power given its stature. Because of their autonomy and
|
|
remarkable intelligence, soulbound dolls are occasionally employed by their crafters
|
|
as administrators over much more powerful but mindless constructs such as golems,
|
|
allowing such dolls to control defenses far beyond their own capabilities. Though
|
|
soulbound dolls contain a small fragment of a soul extracted during or shortly after
|
|
a person''s death, this doesn''t affect the deceased''s resurrection or progress
|
|
to the afterlife. This extraction process is lethal to otherwise-living prospective
|
|
soul donors, though there are rumors of more expensive processes that allows someone
|
|
to donate a fragment of a living soul without repercussions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The soul fragment resides in a soul focus gem (Hardness 10) typically embedded in
|
|
the doll''s neck or chest. The soul fragment isn''t static, and the doll continues
|
|
to learn from its initial state, meaning its personality and abilities can change,
|
|
possibly growing closer to the donor''s or moving farther a eld on its own individual
|
|
path. The soulbound doll''s focus gem retains the doll''s memories even after the
|
|
doll''s destruction. The the intact soul focus gem of a destroyed doll can even
|
|
be placed into a new doll body by someone knowledgeable in the creation of soulbound
|
|
creatures, effectively reconstituting the soulbound doll.
