Font Mimic




Is there anything more inspirational than a fountain? People gravitate toward these displays by instinct. They laugh, play, and eat under its shadow. Some even toss hard-earned copper in for a wish. Most also don't give them a second thought. This is where the mimic comes in. It loves the adoration and is a watering hole and lurking crocodile rolled into one. The years of psychic energy poured into it from bystanders have also imbued it with terrible gifts - gifts it shares with its spawn taking the shape of benches and ornamentation.

Shapechanger.

The mimic can use its action to polymorph into a fountain or back into its true, amorphous form. Its statistics are the same in each form. Any equipment it is wearing or carrying isn't transformed. It reverts to its true form if it dies.

Adhesive (Object Form Only).

The mimic adheres to anything that touches it. A Huge or smaller creature adhered to the mimic is also grappled by it (escape DC 14). Ability checks made to escape this grapple have disadvantage.

False Appearance (Object Form Only).

While the mimic remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from an ordinary fountain.

Grappler.

The mimic has advantage on attack rolls against any creature grappled by it.

Aberrant Radiance (Object form Only).

Whenever the mimic assumes its fountain shape, it chooses one of the following abilities. Beguiling Radiance: At the start of each of the mimic's turns, all non-monstrosities within 5ft of the mimic must succeed on a DC 13 Charisma save or be Charmed by the mimic. This effect ends if a charmed creature takes any damage and they become immune to this effect for the next 24 hours.


Devouring Radiance: At the start of each of the mimic's turns, all non-monstrosities within 5ft of the mimic takes 1 necrotic damage.


Healing Radiance: At the start of each of the mimic's turns, all monstrosities within 5ft of the mimic regains 1 hit point.


Repelling Radiance: At the start of each of the mimic's turns, all non-monstrosities within 5ft of the mimic must succeed on a DC 13 Charisma save or use their reaction to move their speed away from the mimic.

Knave of Knights

Bound to the Cavalcade of the King of Fools , this fallen angels wears a mockup of platemail armor crafted from bright pressed velvet and knitted wool but his weapons are nevertheless quite real. Said weapons are a whip crafted from liars's tongues and a lance of hell iron he wields as if it was made from driftwood. The stub of burnt wings jut from his back with multi-colored streamers dangling from the charred bones. The Knave of Knights fell in with the Cavalcade when he vowed to defend a rightful king's right to rule, only to find out that the sire he fell in with was a bastard usurper who had successfully taken his brother's place. Cursed and broken mentally by the deception, he was easily felled by the King of Fools and given a new place at the archdevil's side serving as his jester and favored knight all wrapped into one.

The Black Lady

The Black Lady claims to be the The King of Fools' concubine and takes pride in the title despite how other devils look down on her and the rest of the cavalcade for it. She adores the 'silly' archdevil to no end and works tirelessly to ensure that the devils beneath him show the properly courtly respect that her lord is due... if he is around. Otherwise, she focuses more on vicious gossip, violent fetes, and malicious matchmaking. Pitch black in skin with burning red eyes, the Black Lady's legs end in smolding pig hooves while long, curled horns poke from her ebony coiffure. She wears a variety of overy fancy dresses that are always stripped, monochrome, and risque. One accessory she is never without is an enchanted fan made from burnt angel feathers. This fan is as sharp as any demon's claws and will always return to her hand. The Black Lady Medium Fiend (devil), lawful evil Armor Class 22 (natural armor) Hit Points...

Crackle

A singular being, Crackle is a bolt of lightning given sentience after hiting a monk meditating atop the mountain. In fact, it believes it is that very monk reincarbated from a smoldering husk instead of the force which killed it. Crackle takes on a humanoid shape, chaning its lighting to appear to have skin and clothing. However, ripples of electricity constantly wiggle along its form. Often times its hair, clothing, and arms will clip through one another for Crackle is an imperfect copy. Crackle travels about, driven by a strong sense of law if not justice. It has a hard time empathizing with other points of view than the one it adopted and flies into a rage when pressed on its true nature.
