=== Phossyl Husks ===
Phossyl Husks are undead creatures that died at the proverbial hand of the Phossylaur. A Phossyl Husk gains the Undead and Psionic tags. It retains its physical stats that it had. It retains its AWR, but its INT and CHA are reduced to -2. The Phossyl Husk gains '''Resist''' Psionic 4, and '''Vulnerable''' [[Divine]] 1. It retains all its natural weapon attacks.
It loses all features that it had, and gains the following feature.
'''Essence Incarnate.''' When the Phossyl Husk dies, the creature that killed it must roll 1d20. On a roll of 6 or higher, the husk dies. On a roll of 5 or less, it instead falls Prone and regains 1 HP.
