Pahzals are benevolent spirits driven by an unquenchable thirst for knowledge and a noble desire to share their wisdom with the living. As phantoms of beings who have passed, they manifest as semi-transparent representations of their former selves, appearing ethereal and ghostly in their spectral form. Pahzals can often be found in libraries, quietly absorbing knowledge, or in taverns, listening to stories and gathering insights from the living.One of the notable abilities of Pahzals is their capacity to generate a special magic ink that allows them to transcribe their observations and knowledge onto any surface. This ink serves as a conduit for passing on their vast wisdom and insights to those in the living world, imparting valuable information and guidance to those who seek it.
Despite their good intentions, Pahzals can sometimes become overly attached to an individual, persistently following them and pestering them with a deluge of information. In such cases, the affected individual must seek the aid of a cleric to banish the relentless Pahzal, allowing them to find peace and move on to fulfill their eternal quest for knowledge and enlightenment.
Encountering a Pahzal is an enlightening and enriching experience, as their spectral presence and unwavering dedication to sharing knowledge embody the essence of curiosity, wisdom, and benevolence.
