Special Traits

  • Brute. A melee weapon deals one extra die of its damage when the hrimrisi hits with it (included in the attack).
  • Ice Walk. The hrimrisi can move across and climb icy surfaces without needing to make an ability check.
  • Innate Spellcasting. The hrimrisi’s innate spellcasting ability is Charisma (spell save DC 16, +8 to hit with spell attacks). It can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components:
  • Magic Resistance. The hrimrisi has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.
  • Snow Camouflage. The hrimrisi has advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks made to hide in snowy terrain.

Actions

  • Multiattack. The hrimrisi makes two melee attacks.
  • Heftisax. Melee Weapon Attack: +10 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 22 (3d10 + 6) slashing damage.
  • Iceball. Melee or Ranged Weapon Attack: +10 to hit, reach 5 ft. or range 30/120 ft., one target. Hit: 19 (3d8 + 6) bludgeoning damage plus 7 (2d6) cold damage.

Reactions

  • Frigid Rebuke. When the hrimrisi takes damage from a creature the hrimrisi can see within 60 feet of it, the hrimrisi can force that creature to succeed on a DC 19 Constitution saving throw or take 11 (2d10) cold damage.
