Accept Your Fate [reaction] (divine) Trigger A creature within 30 feet of the lesser kurshudi uses a fortune effect that allows for a reroll; Effect The lesser kurshudi can select which of the rolled dice is used for the result, even if the creature's ability allows it to select a rerolled result.

Daemon

Hailing from the plane of Abaddon, daemons are utterly devoted to the destruction of all life. Their existence is based around specific means of death, and they seek the death of all things in service to their lords: the Apocalypse Riders. Each daemon represents a different way to die, and they use their specific powers to further that means of death.

Advents in technology have only created new means of death and torment, so new types of daemons enter existence with regularity, each created once a sufficient mass of new deaths occurs to spawn them. These new advent daemons often prefer to spend their time in the galaxy rather than Abaddon, as they can better spread their torments to the mortals of creation.

Sensitive Topics

The daemons presented here represent means of death that are highly topical in a modern society. Communication misunderstandings in an ever-digital environment, as well as the concepts of online bullying and social stalking, are heavy topics for most gaming groups. Be sure to discuss boundaries with your players before including these sensitive topics in your game.

Daemons And Paradoxes

Daemons are incarnations of death, but they're living beings. Typodaemons relish any opportunity to create or point out small mistakes but loathe any mention of their own errors. A civusdaemon's worst nightmare is for their own infosphere reputation to be questioned or tarnished. Almost all daemons embody paradoxes, and those presented here are no exception.
