DESCRIPTION
This macabre brass-and-copper clock depicts worms writhing through whale corpses. The clock makes a heavy reverberating tick each second, and chimes with haunting bells at dawn and dusk. The Wormwood Clock also has another purpose. Within is trapped the soul of Barnabas Harrigan, and as long as it ticks Barnabas Harrigan will never be free of the bargain he made to save his life from his Chelish captors, or even this mortal coil. This clock is an anchor that weighs Harrigan to this world. Unfortunately stopping its infernal ticking is as difficult as freeing the trapped soul within. Each week the clock torments Harrigan's soul, causing the pirate intense physical and spiritual agony, but the Clock can be appeased. As each punishment performed before the clock eases the torment on Harrigan's soul.
As long as the clock ticks Harrigan has the following qualities:
Unstoppable: If Harrigan starts his turn suffering from any or all of the following conditions, he recovers from them at the end of its turn: blind, confused, dazed, deafened, dazzled, exhausted, fatigued, nauseated, sickened, slowed, staggered, and stunned. Each condition lifted does 15 damage.
DR 15/Lawful Evil: Nigh unkillable by most weapons Harrigan's diabolic masters left him with a weakness to the weapons they favor best.
Immunity: ability damage, aging, bleed, disease, energy drain, mind-affecting effects, negative levels, paralysis, permanent wounds, petrification, poison, and polymorph. Instead any effect that would cause any of the above does 5xCL HP.
SR 11+HD: Harrigan is resistant to magic except spells with [lawful] or [evil] descriptors.
If Harrigan is reduced to 0 HP he takes 1 con drain and heals 50 HP. If this ability is triggered he may use it a again as free action to heal additional damage. This effect is similar to breath of life.
