Editing Karsus (section)

===Vestige===
The consciousness of Karsus can still be contacted and communicated with, existing as a [[Vestige]] in the in-between spaces of the planes. [[Binder]]s can summon a manifestation of Karsus, which takes the form of a bleeding red boulder ''(much like his petrified mortal form)'' which speaks in fountains of blood.

When binding Karsus to themselves, unlike other vestiges his sign and influence on the host is subtle. He does not alter the appearance of the binder, rather he makes them bleed far more profusely from their injuries, though this is merely cosmetic and makes wounds look a lot worse than they are. Weak-minded binders who fail to assert dominance over his personality will find that they are overcome by his legendary arrogance, and are incapable of relating to others via Diplomacy checks and instead are ''required'' to either use lies or intimidation to get what they want.

When bound to the essence of Karsus, the binder does become more naturally adept with magical items and auras. They can use magical items as if they were wizards and further increase the save DCs for every magic item that they use. They also can sense magic as if they were under a constant ''Detect Magic'' effect. Their strongest ability is probably the fact that they can ''Dispel Magic'' with a simple touch and can negate spells cast on creatures or items, or even temporarily suppress permanent effects.
