Sable Billy




A polycerate goat with four horns in appearance, this fiend enjoys pretending to be a simple member of a herd while breaking down the shepherds who tend to it until their corrupted souls are ready to feast on. His dark, becoming coat is sought after for soft wool without those who wear it ever knowing they carry a piece of the Abyss with them. While Sable Billy proves capable in any fight, he prefers to make others bloody their hands. Those he cannot drive to murderous rage, he bewitches into. When push comes to shove, though, he can breathe out the very flames of hell and loves the taste of roasted humanoids as other sheep adore grass.

Charge.

If Sable Billy moves at least 20 ft. straight toward a target and then hits it with a ram attack on the same turn, the target takes an extra 5 (2d4) bludgeoning damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 13 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone.

Devil's Sight.

Magical darkness doesn't impede Sable Billy's darkvision.

Innate Spellcasting.

Sable Billy can innately cast Crown of Madness (spell save DC 14), requiring no material components. Its innate spellcasting ability is Wisdom.

False Appearance.

While Silent Billy remains mute and casts no spells, it is indistinguishable from a normal ram.

Fell Regeneration.

Sable Billy regains 10 hit points at the start of its turn as long as any other creature within 30ft lost at least 1 hit point since the end of its last turn. Sable Billy dies only if it starts its turn with 0 hit points and doesn't regenerate.

Sure-Footed.

Sable Billy has advantage on Strength and Dexterity saving throws made against effects that would knock it prone.

Actions

Ram.

Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (2d4 + 2) bludgeoning damage.

Brimstone Breath.

Sable Billy exhales a 15-foot cone of burning brimstone. All creatures in the area of effect must succeed on a DC 13 Dexterity save or take 18 (4d8) fire damage, half as much on success. In addition, Sable Billy only has to use his bonus action on creatures that took full damage from Brimstone breath to maintain Crown of Madness on them until that creature is restored to its maximum hit points.

Netting Mimic

This particular mimic species has a rather unique origin. As polyps the first batch was caught in a giant spider's web soon after being spawned. Rather than being devoured by the arachnid, they turned into sticky strands amid the webwork. Not long after that, a group of adventurers slew said spider and moved on. The mimics had something to subsist on and kept their disguise to keep more bugs. When the spider's eggs hatched, instead of eating the young, the mimics were amused by the creatures and they protected them until they were large enough until to ride off to better climes. Eventually, these mimics took the shape of netting of all sorts: ship rigging, cargo nets, and so on as they were less conspicuous than spider webs. They still remain friends with things eight-legged. Netting Mimic Medium Monstrosity (shapechanger), neutral Armor Class 13 (natural armor) 52 (8d8 + 16) Speed 15 ft Climb ...

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) ...

Bryne Woemonger

There is nothing typical about the typical bryne. These coastal terrors are lumbering humanoids with a skin tone close to that of a drowned corpse. Crystal-like deposits of bone and salt erupt from their elbows, knees and shoulders while the rest of their flesh is puckered here and there from barnacle scars and fell branding. Their most disturbing aspect, however, is their fleshless skulls. Some say a bryne’s head resembles a dead horse, others a dead wolf’s and there is an argument to be made for both. While the skull’s shape is general equine the fangs within are wicked and sharp like a dire wolf’s Deep set eyes as black and cold as a shark's ooze off-white ichors and within the fleshy inside of a bryne’s mouth resides a forked tongue capable of speech. Adorned with the remnants of lost vessels and inhabited by a flock of undead albatross, the bryne woemonger takes to the field wielding a reclaimed anchor as a weapon. Driftwood cages serve as shoulder guards for this giant s...
