Warlock’s Doom (CR 8)

This haunt is the lingering residue of a powerful magician’s final stand—slivers of his spirit and the last spell he ever cast bound together in a volley of destruction unleashed against the world.

XP 4,800; CN persistent haunt (scorched field of 40-ft. radius where the warlock died); Caster Level 8th; Notice Perception DC 20 (to hear the muttered spell); hp 36; Trigger proximity; Reset 1 minute

EFFECT

When this haunt is triggered, a lightning bolt (DC 14) is projected from the ether, aimed in a way that affects the greatest number of living victims possible.

DESTRUCTION

The haunt casts and reabsorbs the same spell again and again. Using a counterspell on lightning bolt dissipates its power, rendering the haunt powerless.
