    • The accursed forge-spurned breathes a cloud of stinging soot, ash, and glowing embers. This can affect either a 30-foot cone or a 20-foot burst centered on the accursed forge-spurned and persists for 1d4 rounds. Creatures that move into or start their turn in the area take 12d6 fire damage (36 basic Reflex save). A creature that fails its save is also blinded for 1 minute. Creatures within the cloud are concealed, though not from the accursed forge-spurned. The accursed forge-spurned can't use Forge Breath again until it has used Inflate Bellows.

    • If a creature is slain by an attack from the soul chain and the accursed forge-spurned is able to retain the creature's corpse, it can bind the creature's soul into the soul chain (as bind soul) with a day of work at a forge and a 20 Crafting check. An individual whose soul is bound in this way can't be resurrected unless the soul chain is destroyed (Hardness 10, 40 HP, BT 20).
