    • 60 feet. Blightburn crystals infused into an ararda's body attempt to counteract any teleportation spell moving into or out of the aura's emanation (counteract check +31; 7th level). In addition, any creature that starts its turn within the emanation is exposed to blightburn sickness (page 73). The aura is blocked by lead sheeting, 1 foot of stone, or large force effects (such as a wall of force, but not a shield spell). An ararda can suppress their aura with an action that has the concentrate trait.

    • The muurfeli can take on the form of an owl. The owl form always looks the same, but the muurfeli can choose to become either Tiny or Small in this form. This transformation doesn't change their Speed or the attack and damage bonuses of their Strike||Strikes, but might change the damage type their Strike||Strikes deal (typically to slashing).
