Sid Skinner




Dressed like a scarecrow, save its loose clothing is made from supple skin, Sid Skinner's left hand is a predenaturally sharp scythe. His left hand is painstakingly crafted from fine wood long stained red by the blood of his victims. His face, stolen of course, has its mouth sewn shut and glowing yellow orbs swirl within the sockets. Sid craves the skin of humanoid beings and feasts on the life force of those he murders. He cannot be reasoned with, not even with the sacrifice of another to him. The call to flay and flense is just too great in the demented doll.

Actions

Scythe Hand.

Melee Weapon Attack: +3 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 4(1d6+1) slashing damage. Creatures must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution save or bleed for the next minute. While bleeding, a creature takes 1 necrotic damage at the start of each of its turns. This bleeding ends if the creature receives magical healing.


If a creature fails this save by 5 or more, Sid Skinner steals a segment of the creature's skin. The creature reduces its Hit Point maximum by the amount of damage taken; slashing and bleed. This reduction lasts until the target finishes a long rest. The target dies if this effect reduces its hit point maximum to 0.

Smother (Recharge 5-6)

Sid Skinner hurls an enchanted swath of skin at a creature within 20ft. The creature must succeed on DC 13 Dexterity save or have its face covered by the skin. The creature is Blinded and struggles for its breath as if it is Drowning. As an action, the creature may make a DC 13 Strength check, tearing off the skin and ending the effects on success. A creature within 5ft may also use its action to perform the same Strenght check to tear away the skin.

Frame Mimic

Rattling from the shadows, a gaggle of rat-gnawed bones march forward eager to slay the living. One of them lags behind, looking a bit more solid than the rest. You know your mace should have broken the leading skeletons to pieces. Yet, it merely cracked bones instead of shattering them. Tentacles lash out from the slower skeleton, adhering to you and pulling you closer to the maw manifesting from its ribcage. This is the frame mimic. The spawn of the ossuary mimic, this monstrosity also feels a kinship to the undead - specifically animated skeletons. It adopts a group of such horrors and its very presence temporarily empowers them. This is why the skeletons keep it around instead of hacking it to pieces as they would any other living thing. On top of that, frame mimics develop a supernatural stubbornness that can only be called boneheaded. So powerful is this force of will, that it mends their wounds as they plough forward against deadly spells. Frame Mimic Medium Monstrosit...

Brocade Mimic

The masked bard in gaudy attire was strumming away when the bar fight started. It kept playing even as chairs broke and mugs flew. Not one strum was missed even when blood was spilled. Then someone grew sick of the racket and stuck a hand ax into the bard's neck...with a wooden thunk. The fancy vest exploded with teeth, tentacles, and eyes. Then there was the color spray... The first brocade mimic lurked in the rafters of a bard college. Instead of eating a future player, it learned alongside them and caught a passion for the arts. Of course, it could have become an instrument but that wasn't quite grand enough. The mimic became a set of fancy clothes and was worn out the front doors. Sometimes it and its spawn become a bard's best friend. sometimes it pilots a dead one around for a bit, and other times it takes over a mannequin to strike out on its own. No matter how, the show must always go on. Brocade Mimic Medium Monstrosity (shapechanger), neutral ...

Yoke Mimic

Something tore apart the bandits you've been tracking, but it's not obvious what chewed and in some cases melted them. Maybe there's a wyrmling in the area? Either way, all that remains alive in the camp is a pair of oxen burdened by their cart. Though, they are quite nonplussed given the violence that must have occurred around them. Surely these simple beasts couldn't be the case of the carnage, could they? As you ponder this, the oxen start plodding away, pulling the cart of goods with them. Trying to stop them was the logical thing to do... their yoke coming undone with twin, yawning mouths not so logical. You know what that means... initiative rolls, please. Relatively benign, for a mimic, the yoke mimic was cultivated by an industrious farmer. They didn't see the point of wasting an animal that came into their care, even a strange monstrosity such as this one. It became a valuable tool not only to get fields plowed, but also kept the animals attached to it d...
