    desc: "`pf2:r`  **Trigger** A creature within the monster's reach uses a manipulate action or a move action, makes a ranged attack, or leaves a square during a move action it's using.\n* * *\n\n**Effect** The monster attempts a melee Strike against the triggering creature.

    desc: "`pf2:1`  The sumbreiva claims the soul of a creature they killed within the last minute. This works like [[Spells/Seize Soul|Seize Soul]], except that no black sapphire is required and the soul is turned into a glowing blue light called a _soul trophy_. Anyone who kills the sumbreiva can then free the soul from any _soul trophy_ by touching it and speaking the word for \"freedom\" in any language."
 
  - name: "Huntblade Brutality"

    desc: "`pf2:1` (arcane,death) **Requirements** The sumbreiva has a creature [[Conditions/Grabbed|Grabbed]] with their shadow whip\n* * *\n\n**Effect** The grabbed creature must succeed at a DC 38 Fortitude check save or become [[Conditions/Drained|Drained 2]] ([[Conditions/Drained|Drained 3]] on a critical failure). If the creature is already drained, this increases its drained value instead, to a maximum of [[Conditions/Drained|Drained 4]]."
 
  - name: "[[Bestiary Ability Glossary/Improved Grab|Improved Grab]]"
    desc: "  **Requirements** The monster's last action was a successful Strike that lists Improved Grab in its damage entry, or the monster has a creature [[Conditions/Grabbed|Grabbed]] or [[Conditions/Restrained|Restrained]]\n* * *\n\n**Effect** If used after a Strike, the monster attempts to [[/act grapple]] the creature using the body part it attacked with as a free action. This attempt neither applies nor counts toward the creature's multiple attack penalty.\n\nThe monster can instead spend an action to use Grab and choose one creature it's grabbing or restraining with an appendage that has Grab to automatically extend that condition to the end of the monster's next turn."
 
name: Sumbreiva
creatures:
  - 1: Sumbreiva

Sumbreivas are the Void’s unstoppable hunters, tracking down and destroying other creatures on their plane for sport and practice. Occasionally they pass through a rift or are brought to the Material Plane via planar binding, where they collect living souls to display as trophies.

Sumbreivas gather at Night Lodges, where they train and display their soul trophies, which appear as floating wisps of blue energy. The more formidable the soul, the more intense the blue glow that emanates from it. Sumbreivas in lodges periodically raid the Material Plane on a Night Hunt. Over the course of one night, the sumbreivas from that lodge split up and compete to see who can capture the most brilliant souls as trophies. The winner of the Night Hunt leads the lodge until the next hunt.

Night Lodges are ranked against each other by the accomplishments of the hunters within. All sumbreivas have the ultimate goal of capturing a soul worthy of being placed in the Twilight Lodge, reserved for the truly elite souls and hunters.
