    A headless rider on a black steed, herald of death who carries its own grinning head beneath one arm. When a dullahan stops and speaks a name, that soul's hour has come - and no wall, lock, or lord's command can bar its road. It rides the night roads in silence but for hoofbeats, and to meet its gaze-less stare is to know your time.

    Special Attack

    Spine Whip: slashing, melee 15 ft, +5 to hit, 2d8+5 slashing. Death Blade: slashing, melee 5 ft, 2d8+5 slashing. Call the Name: control, 60 ft, the dullahan speaks a creature's name; on a failed Wis Mind save it is marked - a -2 penalty to its saves against the dullahan, which always knows where it is, cooldown special.

    Special Defense

    Undead Nature: immune to poison, charm, and sleep. Unbarred Road: no wall, lock, gate, or difficult terrain slows its pursuit. Headless: cannot be blinded and is immune to gaze effects. Senses: Night Vision (60 ft), Living Sense (feels the living, 60 ft).
