SPECIAL TRAITS

• Innate Spellcasting. The brown fiend’s spellcasting ability is Charisma (spell save DC 14). The brown fiend can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components:
  • At will: detect evil and good, detect magic
  • 3/day: animate dead
  • 1/day each: create undead, hallow

ACTIONS

• Multiattack. The brown fiend makes two Claws attacks and one Bite attack. It can use Fearful Glare in place of any melee attack.
• Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 12 (2d6 + 5) piercing damage.
• Claws. Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d6 + 5) slashing damage.
• Fearful Glare. The brown fiend targets one creature it can see within 60 feet of it. If the target can see the brown fiend, it must make a DC 17 Wisdom saving throw against this magic or become frightened until the end of the brown fiend’s next turn on a failure. If the target fails the saving throw by 5 or more, it is also paralyzed for the same duration. A target that succeeds on the saving throw is immune to the Fearful Glare of all brown fiends for the next 24 hours.

ABOUT

A brown fiend is six feet tall, nimble, and very fast. It is humanoid in appearance, combining the worst aspects of a leprous human, a devil, and a rabid animal, with a warty toad-like hide that seems to hang in tatters from its lank frame. Its head is oversized, with protruding, serrated-fanged jaws.
