Demesne Confinement (curse, necromancy, occult) A pale sovereign is tied to their demesne, a territory of a 5-mile radius surrounding their home estate. They can't leave their demesne of their own accord. A pale sovereign taken from their demesne can't use any of their innate spells or rituals and gradually withers over the course of a week, turning to dust if they don't return before 7 days have passed.

Sense Visitors (detection, divination, occult) A pale sovereign automatically knows when a creature enters or leaves their demesne, though this doesn't give them precise knowledge of the creature's location.

Aura of Charm (aura, emotion, incapacitation, mental, occult) 80 feet. The aura of a pale sovereign is beguiling and inviting, affecting creatures beginning their turns within it with an 8th-level charm (DC 39 Will save). A creature that fails its Will save perceives the pale sovereign as they were in life, not their current undead form. A creature that succeeds at its save is then temporarily immune to that pale sovereign's aura for 24 hours.

It can't awaken with a successful Perception check, though dealing any amount of damage to the creature breaks the slumber. If it's still unconscious after 1 hour, it awakens.Critical Failure The target falls unconscious permanently, falling prone, and can't be awoken as long as the curse remains.

Siphon Vitality [>>>] (necromancy, negative, occult) The pale sovereign siphons the life force from creatures around them. All living creatures in a 30-foot emanation take 6d8 negative damage (DC 39 basic Fortitude save). The pale sovereign regains HP equal to the highest damage a single creature took from this effect.
