The haunting dullahan ride dark steeds through lonely stretches of forest trails in search of the damned. It is said that the dullahan are Death’s own hands and feet; allegedly, when the dullahan utters a person’s name, they simply drop dead. Rumor has it that merely looking at a dullahan causes one to go blind. Even so, there are various accounts of a dullahan’s appearance: A headless horseback rider or carriage driver clad in black and armed with a long whip made of a human’s spinal cord. The dullahan’s head usually rests under the crook of its arm, and dullahan have been known to hurl their heads at their victims.

A dullahan’s steed is often a frightful creature in its own right. Dullahan typically ride [[War Horse|Warhorses]]''',''' though some also ride [[Pegasus|Pegasi]] or [[Unicorn|Unicorns]]'''.''' A dullahan’s steed is always pitch- black and has malicious red eyes.

It is not widely known, but dullahan also hold a great aversion to gold and the metal severely weakens them.

| colspan="6" |'''Blinding Terror.''' When a creature starts its turn within 60 ft of the Dullahan Centaur, it may choose to avert its eyes, rendering the Dullahan Centaur Unseen. If it does not avert its eyes, the target must make a DC 14 SAN check. On a failure, the creature is Blinded until the start of its next turn. On a crit fail, the creature is Blinded until Lesser Restoration or similar magic restores its sight.
'''Harbinger of Doom.''' The Dullahan Centaur has +1 TA and +1 crit range against creatures that have gained Fear from the Dullahan Centaur since the last time they Took a Rest. The Dullahan Centaur supernaturally knows the distance and direction to such creatures.

'''Spirit Sight (1/Rest).''' The Dullahan Centaur can cast the [[Astral Projection]] psionic invocation.

'''Aversion to Gold.''' If a creature spends at least 1 AP exposing gold to the Dullahan Centaur, then the Dullahan Centaur is Frightened and must take two fewer actions on its next turn unless it uses those actions to move directly away from the gold.

'''Goldenslain.''' If the Dullahan has taken radiant damage or been exposed to gold or sunlight since the start of its last turn, its Regen ability does not work.
