Idolatrous Mimic




One can only speculate if this mimic is some manner of diety or not. It certainly draws energy from those worshipping it, whether it is a golden idol, winged outsider, or scaled fiend. It is also highly intelligent and plays its flock expertly, even if religion really isn't its strong suit. If it makes a misstep, the mimic merely devours the formerly devout, moves to a new area, and sets up a new following. It does the same if the blood sacrifices to it cease, or its followers refuse to take up the practice.

Shapechanger.

The mimic can use its action to polymorph into a celestial, fey, fiend, object, or back into its true, amorphous form. Its statistics are the same in each form. Any equipment it is wearing or carrying isn't absorbed into its mass. It reverts to its true form if it dies and any equipment it carries is spilled out in a space within 10ft of its corpse.

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 23). 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 object.

Grappler.

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

Immutable Form.

The mimic is immune to any spell or effect that would alter its form other than its own Shapechanger ability.

Invested.

If the mimic is currently being venerated or worshiped by any creature within 120ft, it gains advantage on all saving throws against spells and other magical effects. In addition, it regains 10 hit points at the start of each turn as long as it has at least 1 hit point.

Magic Weapons.

The mimic's weapon attacks are magical.

Actions

Multiattack.

The mimic makes a pseudopod and bite attacks. In a non-mimic form, it may always make a pseudopod attack in place of any one of the attacks that form has.

Pseudopod.

Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 9 (1d10 + 4) 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: 9 (1d10 + 4) piercing damage plus 4 (1d8) acid damage.

Objectification.

Target creature that the mimic can see within 120ft must succeed on a DC 21 Constitution save or be polymorphed into an object of the mimic's choice. Any equipment it is wearing or carrying isn't transformed. The creature reverts to its true form if it dies.


For the next minute, the creature repeats this save with the effect ending on success. If the creature does not succeed after this time, they are stuck in object form until either the mimic dies or uses its bonus action to end Objectification. The mimic retains this action even when polymorphed.

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.
