Dreamhunter Minion: Daymare

Enrobed in a spectral, green light, this equine fiend bears a mottled hide a few shades darker. Unlike a true horse, the daymare is hairless. Its tail is constructed from vertebrae and its mane from cartilage spurs. The daymare's hooves are not bone, but eternally frozen ice instead. Often, the beast is used as a steed for the minions of Hypatatos the Dreamhunter.

Actions

Hooves.

+6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 13 (2d8 + 4) bludgeoning damage plus 7 (2d6)cold damage.

Fear Bolt.

+4 to hit, range 60 ft., one target. Hit: 11 (2d8+2) psychic damage. In addition, the creature must succeed on a DC 12 Wisdom save or drop whatever it is holding and become Frightened for the next minute.

While Frightened by this ability, a creature must take the Dash action or move away from the daymare by the safest available routes on each of its turns, unless there is nowhere to move. If the creature ends its turn in a location that does not have line of sight of you, the creature can repeat this saving throw. On a successful save, the effect ends for that creature.

Ethereal Stride.

The daymare and up to three willing creatures within 5 feet of it magically enter the Ethereal Plane from the Material Plane, or vice versa.

Cuirassier Mimic

Hand-crafted by an aberrant soul, the first mimic of this breed was given to the creature's loyal bodyguard to provide both protection... and a second bodyguard as it were. The monstrosity performed exceptionally well, especially when heroes slew the fellow wearing it and the mimic kept the bottom fighting. Thus the cuirassier mimic was passed to the next right-hand-mook, and so on as its bearers passed. This lead to a legend of an immortal servant when in truth, it was just the armor all along. Eventually, its creator was killed, the mimic 'looted', and its spore spread across the realm.

Entry Mimic

This particular strain of mimics was carefully cultivated into being by a drow matron sick of uninvited guests - both of the adventurer and political rival variety. Resistant to pesky bypassing magic and capable of alerting a building's occupants (and other mimics) of interlopers, entry mimics became all the rage... well, until they started eating honored guests and the occasional house pet. The matron quickly lost favor and stepped through one door never to return... as it were.

Soot Foot

Prior to Death claiming the Kingdom, the zombie dubbed Soot Foot was just another of the faceless masses. While he was a chimney sweep of notable skill, no one noted the ash-smeared lad. Surely, he could have made some money it a sideshow with his double-jointed talents but he preferred the quiet life. He perished in the middle of a job, his already pliant joints tearing into compound fractures as he scrambled to find the flesh of the living. The toxins soaked into his rotting skin give him a unique virality that leaves fiery undead in his weak and he never leaves the cinder of his chimney lairs far behind. -Records of the Charnel House Soot Foot Medium undead (zombie), chaotic evil Armor Class 8 Hit Points 45 (6d8 + 18) Speed 20ft Climb 20ft Str 16 Dex 6 Con 16 Int 3 Wis 8 Cha 5 Skills Stealth +2 Damage Resistances fire Condition Immunities exhaustion, poisoned
