Whenever a creature enters within 10 feet of the ashen husk, or starts its turn within 10 feet of the ashen husk, that creature must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or take 2 (1d4) necrotic damage and have disadvantage on attack rolls and saving throws for 1 minute. An affected creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns. A creature that succeeds on its saving throw is immune to the Dehydrating Aura of all ashen husks for 24 hours.Undead Fortitude. If damage reduces the ashen husk to 0 hit points, it must make a Constitution saving throw with a DC of 5 + the damage taken, unless the damage is radiant or from a critical hit. On a success, the ashen husk drops to 1 hit point instead.ActionsSlam. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d8+4) bludgeoning damage plus 10 (3d6) necrotic damage. The target must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or its hit point maximum is reduced by an amount equal to the damage taken. This reduction lasts until the target finishes a long rest. The target dies if this effect reduces its hit point maximum to 0. A humanoid slain by this attack rises 24 hours later as an ashen husk, unless the humanoid is restored to life or its body is destroyed.Ashen husks rise from the corpses of those who succumbed to thirst in the desert. They can often be found among the ruined wagons of caravans gone astray, as lone wanderers, or as victims of monsters whose own ability spread desiccation. Their papery skin conceals bone-hard limbs, able to deliver life-draining necromantic energy to their foes. Merely being close to one of these creatures sucks the moisture from one’s body, leaving them dehydrated and weakened. Ashen husks stand around 6 feet tall and weigh about 140 pounds.Originally from Sandstorm(I am still working on the Gray Jester, and I hope to upload it soon). -- source link
