InitN/A

“Translucent, barnacle-encrusted figures manifest in the pews or choir lofts. Their jaws unhinge unnaturally wide as they emit a sound that causes the surrounding water or air to ripple like heavy silk.”

Standard Engagement

Trigger

A creature speaks at a volume louder than a whisper or performs an action with the Auditory trait while within the nave of the cathedral.

Routine

N/A

Reset

The haunt resets after 1 hour of total silence within the chamber.

Crushing Resonance

The choir releases a blast of sonic energy. All creatures in a 30-foot burst centered on the nave must attempt a DC 29 Will save. Critical Success: The creature is unaffected. Success: The creature takes 3d10+17 sonic damage. Failure: The creature takes 6d10+35 sonic damage and is stunned 2. Critical Failure: The creature takes 12d10+70 sonic damage and is stunned 3.

Heavy Metal Conductance

Creatures wearing heavy metal armor or carrying large metal shields take a -2 circumstance penalty to their Will save due to the armor's sympathetic vibration.

Lingering Silence

If a creature fails their save, they are deafened for 1 minute as their ears ring with the ghosts of the choir.
