Cloak of Souls An obcisidaemon is shrouded at all times in a cloak of captured souls. It can hold a number of souls equal to the daemon's Charisma modifier. Destroying the daemon frees the souls, though this doesn't return the deceased creatures to life. A creature whose soul is trapped within this cloak can't be resurrected except by a 9th-rank Resurrect ritual or similarly powerful magic.
