Boons:
- Your creature type becomes Undead instead of whatever it originally was. Additionally, you cannot be excluded from Turn Undead.
- You stop aging. You are immune to any effect that would age you, and you cannot die from old age. You do not require air, food, drink, or sleep.
- Your Constitution increases by 2, and your Dexterity or Strength by 1. Your transformation save DC scales off of your Constitution score (8 + Proficiency Bonus + Constitution Modifier).
- While you Soul Vessel is charged, you gain the following benefits to your weapon attacks or unarmed strikes:
- They count as magical
- They have advantage if taken as a reaction
- Once per turn, when you hit with a weapon attack or unarmed strike, you can choose to add a tinge of undeath to it. That attack deals 1d12 necrotic damage in addition to the ordinary damage.
Flaws:
- Soul Vessel: You have successfully torn your soul from your body and trapped it in a suitable object. The object in question must be no larger than 1 cubic foot in size. In the case of Memori Lichdom, the object tends to be the skull of a great foe, but this object can be many other things, should the lich choose so. The soul vessel has the following statistics.
AC: 18
Hit Points: 10 * your Character Level
Speed: 0
Damage Immunities: Poison, Psychic; Bludgeoning, Piercing, and Slashing from non-magical sources
Damage Resistances: Cold, Fire, Lightning, Necrotic, Thunder; Bludgeoning, Piercing, and Slashing from magical sources
Condition Immunities: All
While a soul is stored in your soul vessel, the soul is considered charged. The soul contained in the vessel must be from a creature no less than 1/3rd of your character level, rounded up. Your soul vessel can only contain one soul at a time.
You can add a soul to your soul vessel 2 times for each transformation stage you have. You regain the expended uses upon completing a long rest.
To store a soul within the soul vessel, while your soul vessel is within 30 feet of you, you must use an action within 1 minute of a creature's death or use a reaction which is triggered upon the death of a creature within 60 feet of you. The creature cannot be restored to life until it's soul is removed from your soul vessel. If you use this feature to capture a soul while your vessel already contains a soul, the previous soul is released and replaced with the new soul. A soul gives your soul vessel an amount of charges equal to 1/3rd the soul's CR.
If your soul vessel is reduced to 0 hit point, you must create a new one. Doing so takes a Long Rest. Until you do, you do not gain any benefits from your Lich transformation, but retain the flaws as if your soul vessel is not charged. Also, until you have a soul vessel again, you have disadvantage on the first ability check, saving throw, or attack roll you make after finishing a short or long rest.
If you are killed while you control a charged soul vessel on the same plane of existence, your soul vessel's charges are consumed, and you are brought back to life as per the Resurrection spell within 5 feet of your soul vessel 1 day later. If you are killed and your soul vessel is not charged, you are resurrected 7 days later instead.
