The Pr’eta is the soul of a suicide who to go to his rest must kill a
replacement. He has an attack of 1-10 plus drain two levels. When
someone is killed by damage or drainage by a Pr’eta, both will then
vanish — the victim of a Pr’eta does not himself become a Pr’eta.
Clerics turn Pr’eta as Vampires, except that a Pr’eta can never be dissolved:
if a Dissolve result is rolled, it will merely turn away.
