Window Mimic




Screw treasure, doors, and cabinets. Everyone walks over to a window and being drawn to the view beyond isn't that unusual. That's where the window mimic finds its niche, literally. Its unique physiology allows it to turn the surface it is attached to transparent, and even toss objects through it. After all, some meals need to be tenderized.

Shapechanger.

The mimic can use its action to polymorph into an ordinary window 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 13). 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 window.

Grappler.

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

Transparent Skin (Object Form Only).

When attached to a surface, the mimic turns that surface translucent to show what is on the other side as if it was clear glass.

Actions

Pseudopod.

Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d8 + 3) bludgeoning damage. If the mimic is in object form, the target is subjected to its Adhesive trait.

Bite.

Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d8 + 3) piercing damage plus 4 (1d8) acid damage.

A View to a Kill (Object Form Only).

The mimic targets a creature it can see within 60ft and attempts to draw it over to see the view. The creature must succeed on a DC 13 Charisma save or be Charmed by the mimic for the next minute and use its movement to draw closer to the window. If the creature takes damage, this effect ends. The mimic has advantage on its first attack against the creature while it is charmed.

Bonus Actions

Defenestrate (Object Form Only).

If the mimic beings its turn grappling one or more creatures, it may throw one of those creatures through the wall to which it is attached up to a distance of 15 feet.

Reactions

Breath of Fresh Air.

The mimic can use its reaction to clear the Poisoned condition from all creatures within 30ft, including itself.

Coffer Mimic

Most adventurers have either encountered or heard a story of an encounter with a mimic disguised as a chest. This is so common that everyone assumes a chest might just be a mimic. Hopefully, they never run across this monstrosity. Bred and trained by The Moneylender to protect his ill-gotten fortune, these mimics take the form of high-quality chests and possess greedy souls. They horde treasure and protect it fiercely. The more booty the mimic holds, the tougher it becomes - even more so when it robs the dead. If they get too aggressive, the Moneylender sells them off to other villains to populate their castles and dungeons.

Warlock Patron: The Embalmed

You have made a pact with an ancient mummy that while forever entombed beneath sun-scorched sand or impenetrable jungle, can reach out from its sepulcher to influence the living. Perhaps the undead horror was once a powerful sorcerer-king, high priestess of an extinct civilization, or the last remnant of a lost, terrible race. Its agenda and goals match a forgotten age and the mummy's capricious whims. Often the warlock is tasked with recovering artifacts tied to the sarcophagus-trapped horror or its civilization. Some mummies seek to futilely seek to be released from their prison, while others just want to be remembered as a figure of glory and power. Expanded Spell List The Embalmed lets you choose from an expanded list of Spells when you learn a Warlock spell.

Gears

Gears can't remember if he was a dwarven hero or a condemned criminal. Either way, he is more cogwork than flesh now and driven to mete out justice with his metal fists. He was first deployed during an intense goblin invasion of a dwarven stronghold. Initially he served as something between a shocktroop and a living weapon, but this cigar chopping 'cyborg' inspired the dwarven defenders fighting along side of him to the point that he became a mascot, then a leader. More times than one could count, he should have gone down under a barrage of attacks only to plow forward losing more flesh and blood later replaced with mithril and steel. Eventually, Gears lost every last dwarf he fought along side and just kept killing goblins whenever he could until the fortress housed him alone. Now he wanders the world, making things right the best he can one punch at a time. Gears Medium construct (dwarf), chaotic good Armor Class 12 (natural armor) ...
