Predatory beasts as dangerous on land as they are in the water, they share their masters’ capricious cruelty.

They surround their prey, latching on with their powerful jaws. Non-aquatic prey are dragged into the depths to drown. Similarly, eel hounds often force aquatic prey up onto dry land to die of suffocation. \nPossessed of a low cunning, they prepare ambushes by vomiting forth their slippery spittle where land animals come to drink or along game trails.

Among themselves they communicate through flashing patterns and hues, but they talk to other races in an echoing, choral tone that seems to emanate from everywhere and nowhere around them. \n**Servants of Fate.** Their aims often seem inconsequential or simply baffling, but they’ve also sundered mountains and toppled kingdoms. Many believe they’re agents of Fate, others that their motivation is an alien aesthetic or their own amusement. \n**Pattern Vision.** Those who’ve spoken with liosalfar say they talk as if all existence was a sea of patterns and colors to be set in pleasing shapes. They barely understand mortal concerns. \n**Enemies of the Ramag.** The liosalfar have a longstanding rivalry with the portal-making ramag, whom they despise as “corruptors of the patterns.” \n**Elemental Nature.** A liosalfar doesn’t require air, food, drink, or sleep.", "name": "Liosalfar", "size": "Large", "type": "Elemental", "subtype": "", "group": null, "alignment": "neutral", "armor_class": 17, "armor_desc": "", "hit_points": 110, "hit_dice": "20d10", "speed": { "fly": 60, "hover": true }, "strength": 10, "dexterity": 25, "constitution": 10, "intelligence": 18, "wisdom": 18, "charisma": 12, "strength_save": null, "dexterity_save": 10, "constitution_save": 3, "intelligence_save": 7, "wisdom_save": 7, "charisma_save": 4, "perception": 7, "skills": { "arcana": 7, "insight": 7, "perception": 7 }, "damage_vulnerabilities": "", "damage_resistances": "acid, cold, fire, lightning, thunder; bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing from nonmagical attacks", "damage_immunities": "poison, psychic, radiant", "condition_immunities": "blinded, charmed, exhaustion (see Lightform special ability), grappled, paralyzed, petrified, poisoned, prone, restrained, unconscious", "senses": "blindsight 120 ft., truesight 60 ft., passive Perception 17", "languages": "Common, Celestial, Primordial, Elvish, Giant", "challenge_rating": "8", "cr": 8.0, "actions": [ { "name": "Multiattack", "desc": "The liosalfar makes two Disrupting Touch attacks." }, { "name": "Disrupting Touch", "desc": "Melee Weapon Attack: +10 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target.

When inhaled, mindrot spores enter the brain through the bloodstream. As the fungus grows, it dissolves the host’s body and slowly replaces the creature’s flesh with its own. \nThe fungus’s first target is the motor function of the brain. It takes control of the creature’s movement while the victim is still alive and fully conscious—but no longer controls his or her own body! Indeed, sensory awareness may be the last function that the fungus attacks. Eventually, even the victim’s skin and muscle are replaced with fungal fibers. At that point, the affected creature no longer looks like its former self. Such a newly-born mindrot thrall conceals its alarming appearance under heavy robes or cloaks so it can travel without causing alarm. \n**Spore Blisters.** A thrall’s skin is taut and waxy. Blisters form just beneath the surface, and when they grow as large as a child’s fist they burst, releasing a spray of spores. It seeks to infect as many new victims as possible during the few weeks that it survives in humanoid form. At the end of that time, the thrall shrivels to a dried, vaguely humanoid husk. Even a dead mindrot thrall, however, is still dangerous because its half-formed spore blisters can remain infectious for months. Disturbing the husk can burst these blisters and trigger a Mindrot Spores attack. \n**Dimensional Horrors.** Wizards hypothesize the fungus was brought to the mortal world by a shambling horror crossing through a dimensional portal.

Many spellcasters have taught their witchlights a coded cipher, so it can spell out words by flaring and dimming its light. When necessary, a witchlight can spell words in the air by flying so quickly that its trail of light forms letters. This stunt requires a successful DC 14 Dexterity (Acrobatics) check per word. \n**Free Roaming.** If the witchlight’s master dies within one mile of the witchlight, it explodes in a brilliant but harmless flash of light. If it loses its master under any other circumstance, it becomes masterless; it’s free to do as it pleases, and it can never serve anyone else as a familiar. The statistics below represent these independent witchlights. \nEvil witchlights can be surprisingly cruel, not unlike will-o’wisps. They seek to lure lost travelers into swamps or traps by using their glow to imitate the light of a safe haven. Conversely, good-aligned witchlights guide travelers to places of safety or along safe paths, and they are prized by pilots and guides. Neutral witchlights exhibit a playful nature—sometimes mingling inside the cavities of weapons, gems, or other curiosities, which means those items may be mistaken for magic items. More than one “wizard’s staff ” is just an impressivelooking stick with a witchlight perched on top. \n**Constructed Nature.** A witchlight doesn’t require air, food, drink, or sleep.", "name": "Witchlight", "size": "Tiny", "type": "Construct", "subtype": "", "group": null, "alignment": "neutral", "armor_class": 14, "armor_desc": "", "hit_points": 10, "hit_dice": "4d4", "speed": { "fly": 50 }, "strength": 1, "dexterity": 18, "constitution": 10, "intelligence": 10, "wisdom": 13, "charisma": 7, "strength_save": null, "dexterity_save": null, "constitution_save": null, "intelligence_save": null, "wisdom_save": null, "charisma_save": null, "perception": 3, "skills": { "perception": 3 }, "damage_vulnerabilities": "", "damage_resistances": "", "damage_immunities": "poison, radiant", "condition_immunities": "charmed, exhaustion, frightened, paralyzed, petrified, poisoned", "senses": "darkvision 60 ft., passive Perception 13", "languages": "understands the language of its creator but can't speak", "challenge_rating": "1/4", "cr": 0.25, "actions": [ { "name": "Light Ray", "desc": "Ranged Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, range 30 ft., one target.

Many scholars turn to the giants’ deep connection with the earth as evidence of this fact, and the giants themselves make no efforts to deny it. Indeed, the oral tradition of the abbanith giants dates back millennia, to a time when gods walked the land, elves were first learning the secrets of magic, and humans were still living in caves. Most abbanith giants wear simple tunics or shorts woven of a strange subterranean fungus, though leaders occasionally wear armor. \n**Consummate Diggers.** Abbanith giants dwell almost exclusively underground and are adept at using their incredibly hard thumb claws to dig massive tunnels through the earth. Druids and wizards studying the giants’ unique biology have deduced that mineral-based materials actually soften when struck by their claws. This feature has also made them the target of derro and duergar slavers wishing to use their skills to mine precious gems or build their fortifications, something the giants violently oppose despite their normally peaceable nature. \n**Allies of the Earth.** For as long as either race can remember, abbanith giants have been allies of the Open Game License", "name": "Abbanith Giant", "size": "Large", "type": "Giant", "subtype": "", "group": null, "alignment": "neutral", "armor_class": 13, "armor_desc": "natural armor", "hit_points": 76, "hit_dice": "9d10+27", "speed": { "burrow": 30, "walk": 40 }, "strength": 20, "dexterity": 9, "constitution": 17, "intelligence": 10, "wisdom": 13, "charisma": 11, "strength_save": 7, "dexterity_save": null, "constitution_save": 5, "intelligence_save": null, "wisdom_save": null, "charisma_save": null, "perception": null, "skills": {}, "damage_vulnerabilities": "", "damage_resistances": "", "damage_immunities": "", "condition_immunities": "", "senses": "tremorsense 120 ft., passive Perception 11", "languages": "Giant, Terran", "challenge_rating": "3", "cr": 3.0, "actions": [ { "name": "Multiattack", "desc": "The abbanith giant makes two thumb claw attacks." }, { "name": "Thumb Claw", "desc": "Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target.

Closer observation reveals it to be a clockwork device. Blood stains its maw, which leaks a green fluid with a vaguely astringent odor._ \n**Collectors of Blood.** Hags and other magic practitioners who require blood for their rituals and sacrifices create clockwork leeches to scout marshlands and neighboring settlements for large groups of living creatures. The leeches are designed to extract their fill and return to their controllers, who access and drain their reservoirs. Autonomous clockwork leeches continue to collect blood, but, without masters to whom they deliver it, they go through cycles of draining blood then violently disgorging it. Regardless of their purpose (or lack thereof) for obtaining blood, most clockwork leeches retreat after getting their fill. \n**Waterproof Swimmer.** A clockwork leech has layered copper plating that keeps water away from its inner mechanisms. These mechanisms allow the leech to propel itself through water. They can use this propelling undulation on land to make attacks with their “tails.” Leeches that don’t receive regular cleanings eventually turn green as the copper corrodes. \n**Unseen, Unheard, and Unfelt.** The same plating that protects the clockwork leech’s inner mechanisms also buffers noise from the gears. Its coloration allows it to blend in with marshland foliage and silty water. Finally, when it punctures a creature’s skin, it releases a sedative to numb the wound, leaving the victim unaware of the injury and subsequent blood drain. The leech doesn’t have an unlimited supply of the sedative, and a leech that hasn’t undergone maintenance for a few weeks loses its Anesthetizing Bite trait. Because the leech must remain attached to its victim to drain its blood, it prefers to attack lone or sleeping targets. \n**Construct Nature.** A clockwork leech doesn’t require air, food, drink, or sleep.", "name": "Clockwork Leech", "size": "Medium", "type": "Construct", "subtype": "", "group": null, "alignment": "neutral", "armor_class": 13, "armor_desc": "natural armor", "hit_points": 45, "hit_dice": "6d8+18", "speed": { "walk": 30, "swim": 60 }, "strength": 14, "dexterity": 12, "constitution": 17, "intelligence": 3, "wisdom": 10, "charisma": 7, "strength_save": null, "dexterity_save": null, "constitution_save": null, "intelligence_save": null, "wisdom_save": null, "charisma_save": null, "perception": 2, "skills": { "perception": 2, "stealth": 3 }, "damage_vulnerabilities": "", "damage_resistances": "", "damage_immunities": "poison, psychic", "condition_immunities": "charmed, exhaustion, frightened, paralyzed, petrified, poisoned", "senses": "darkvision 60 ft., passive Perception 12", "languages": "—", "challenge_rating": "1", "cr": 1.0, "actions": [ { "name": "Bite", "desc": "Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature.
