In manifested form, a zeitgeist is no longer invisible or incorporeal. It gains the specific qualities noted under the appropriate manifestations, below, and loses the benefits of the incorporeal subtype. Should a Zeitgeist's urban manifestation be destroyed, it dissipates and must wait 24 hours before it can use any of its abilities again. ##### Mob Manifestation A zeitgeist can take the form of a mob of humans, albeit of Huge size. It gains the heart of the city special ability, and mob traits and a mob attack. ##### Smoke Manifestation A zeitgeist in this form appears to be an enormous cloud of semi-solid rolling smoke. In smoke form, the Zeitgeist's gains the a slam attack, the air mastery, amorphous, choke and heart of the city abilities, and stench aura. ##### Stone Manifestation A zeitgeist taking this form appears to be a huge humanoid figure composed of stones, detritus, and even whole buildings. In stone form, a zeitgeist’s gains a slam attack and the amorphous, earth mastery, and heart of the city abilities. #### ecology **Terrain** Any (Abyss) **Organization** Solitary **Treasure** None **Advancement** 21-30 HD (Huge); 31-60 HD (Gargantuan) The zeitgeist is a strange, phantasmal fey that appears to be generated by the lives and emotions of those living in an urban center. It is capable of assuming multiple forms; each is drawn from the building blocks of the city and culture. Zeitgeists, unlike most fey, appear to have no biological needs. So long as their city survives, they survive. They do not age, but neither do they reproduce. Rather, a few cities seem to spontaneously generate these strange fey. Creatures able to see invisibility describe an unmanifested zeitgeist as a vaguely humanoid-shaped bank of mist, roiling with multiple colors. The colors appear to match those hues most commonly worn by the people of the city.
