Noose of Terminal Embrace in Pathfinder 1e

CL 15th

AURA strong conjuration and transmutation
When the necromancer Osmyrd Glavis was lynched in southern Taldor, his final utterance of hatred infused the very rope that was cutting into his flesh, resulting in the first noose of terminal embrace. Since then, many others have duplicated the magic item, yet the original remains lost- though some say it still hangs about the neck of its undead master.   When a noose of terminal embrace is placed around the neck, it immediately activates, tightening and dealing 2d4 points of damage at that moment. Removing the noose thereafter requires a full-round action and a successful DC 18 Strength check. Failure results in an additional 2d4 points of damage.   While the noose is worn, its frayed end dangles a foot or so from the neck, but once per day, if the wearer is successfully grappled by a Large or smaller creature, the wearer may will the noose's length to extend and lash out at the attacker. This allows the wearer to immediately attempt a grapple check against the attacker. If successful, the wearer establishes a grapple on the attacker rather than the other way around. This does not prevent the attacker from attempting to grapple the wearer in the future.
