Special Traits

  • Implant. The xill leader can use an action to implant up to 7 (2d6) xill eggs in one unconscious or incapacitated creature within 5 feet of it. The xill’s eggs hatch when the target takes its next long rest, at which point the young consume the host from within. After each long rest, the target must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw. On a failed saving throw, the target gains one level of exhaustion. Xill eggs can be removed individually by the target or another creature by making a successful DC 15 Wisdom (Medicine) check. Each check deals 1d8 slashing damage to the target. The eggs can be destroyed by magic such as lesser restoration.
