Father Hunger has Heavy Armor against Slashing and Piercing damage.
Father Hunger is attached to the wall by an umbilical cord of stone, which has 30 HP, and Heavy Armor against Slashing and Piercing damage. If the umbilical cord gets severed at 0 HP, Father Hunger cannot take the Return to Inanimate action anymore, but he gets Speed of 3.

- •Return to Inanimate.
Father Hunger re-enters the wall, letting go of Grappled victim who loses conditions. Combat ends.
The last guardian of a Mana extraction engine, Father Hunger has been exposed for too long to a Mana deprived environment. As the essence of life leeched out of his body, he has become immortal, and is now one with the stone walls of the tower he is oath bound to defend. His crazed mind yearns for his lost life and he seeks to devour any living being entering his domain.
In terms of gameplay, Father Hunger is as much a trap as a monster. He will strike and disappear, relentlessly coming back to harass the adventurers.
Portents: Father Hunger keeps talking to himself, the adventurers can hear his voice echoing from the walls around them. He will comment on their actions and taunt them. When he stops talking, it is only because he is preparing to attack ...
Attack: When Father Hunger sees an opportunity he will try to engulf a Hero within 5' of a wall through the "Embrace Life" action. This starts combat: all heroes roll Initiative with Disadvantage, and can take their actions. On his turn, Father Hunger will use his "Sweet Nectar" action to crush the incapacitated and grappled Hero, and devour its precious essence - remember that he rolls with Advantage and the Incapacitated Hero cannot Defend. Father Hunger will continue to crush its victim on later rounds, until it is dead or Father Hunger is at risk. He will then use the "Return to Inanimate" action to re-enter the wall, and the combat ends.
Other notes:
- Outside walls, Father Hunger resembles a vaguely anthropomorphic mass of stones with no facial features. As he gets hurt, grisly bleeding organs appear intermixed within the stones.
- Father Hunger prefers to attack isolated targets if possible.
- Out of the walls, he is stuck to his exit point by his umbilical cord and cannot move.
- If the ambushed Hero succeeds their WILL check, they can move to an adjacent square and roll their initiative like the rest of the party.
- If its umbilical cord is severed, it will take Father Hunger one hour to painfully merge back into the stone, and days to heal and recreate his umbilical cord so he can ambush again.
All attacks made in full sight of the Elder Colonist are with Disadvantage.
- •Mana Strike.2d8+12.
