Spawn of Parzelon

A drape of long hair obscures the countenance of this shapely woman. As she turns, her sharp-toothed leonine visage is revealed. Suddenly, long needlelike claws protrude from her lithe fingertips, and her dark blue feline eyes narrow in hungry anticipation.

Special Traits

  • Devil’s Sight. Magical darkness doesn’t impede the spawn’s darkvision.
  • Keen Smell. The spawn has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on smell.
  • Magic Resistance. The spawn has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.
  • Pack Tactics. The spawn has advantage on attack rolls against a creature if at least one of the spawn’s allies is within 5 feet of the creature and the ally isn’t incapacitated.
  • Pounce. If the spawn moves at least 20 feet straight toward a creature and then hits it with a claw attack on the same turn, that target must succeed on a DC 16 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone. If the target is prone, the spawn can make one bite attack against it as a bonus action.
  • Innate Spellcasting. The spawn’s innate spellcasting ability is Charisma (spell save DC 13). The spawn of Parzelon can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components:

Actions

  • Multiattack. The spawn of Parzelon makes one bite attack and two claw attacks.
  • Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 5 (1d6 + 2) piercing damage.
  • Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 5 (1d6 + 2) slashing damage plus 7 (2d6) necrotic damage.
  • Tranquil Roar (Recharge 4-6). The spawn emits a dreadfully alluring purr. Each creature within 20 feet of it that can hear it and that isn’t a devil must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or be charmed for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

About
