*The Egregore ignores any immunity to fear. Any advantage against fear is lost, and immunity becomes advantage. Oh, look, you already rolled with advantage, so you don't need to worry about that.*
Viper is Frightened. He must drop any items he is carrying and use his action to dash away from the Egregore. The giant abomination makes a single swipe with its blade as Viper retreats.

*forced movement doesn't trigger opportunity attacks*
Theren sees a white owl bear cub in black vest in the distance, it calls out in a very un-owlbear like way and starts approaching.
Theren raises an eyebrow and watches it
As it gets closer he realizes it has tiny wings and the vest says "emotional support owlbear" and has many pockets containing medicine and various healing potions and even a small button labeled "call owner" on its collar. It gently sits next to him and lets out small soothing noises
Theren reaches out with his good arm and presses the button. Once he does he gently pats the owlbears head
The owlbear tries it's best to comfort him. a minute or two pass before a kenku with white patches of feathers and a partially metallic beak appears in the distance and immediately rushes towards him "my goodness! You poor thing! Don't worry dear I'm a doctor I'll have you patched up in no time"
Heal 80 hp and eliminate any poison from their system
Once his jaw is back into place he murmurs, "Thank you."
She nods
"Of course. Now how about we get you inside and you can tell me what happened over a warm meal. Sound good?"
He nods, shakily standing up.
She helps them to a cottage at the edge of the woods, on the inside its cozy and pleasantly warm she helps them to a seat and quickly prepares and offers them some soup and soft warm bread that can't be more than a hour old
"Here you go, eat as much as you like."
"Thank you." he says, taking a few bites of the food
"Of course... Excuse me for being pushy... but once you're ready I'd like to know what happened. If there's a danger in the area I'll need to deal with it"
*look mate, im not tryna be difficult but some of that seems highly unbalanced.*
*While that is a fair assessment, he is meant to be a tricky glass cannon. Against a party of lvl 20 adventurers, if he just tries to fight them head-on, he'll be destroyed. He's meant to function as a boss, and is deliberately equipped with something to deal with every "no instant-win" effect I can think of. Look at his HP, AC, and Photosensitivity. His damage output is extreme, but he's frail for a monster of his CR if he's not pulling out all the stops.
But yes, he is unfair and I should have presented his stats to you before ever putting him in any confrontational role, and I am perfectly willing to admit fault on that.*

He rubs his hand against a tattoo on his wrist. "Its a bounty hunter from a completely different world. Fighting him would be a bad idea as he has been a champion in a fighting tournament where if you lose, then you lose your soul..."

A young man sits in the tavern, staring blankly at a wall. His skin is pale, an almond color. His eyes are stormy grey and glitter slightly like fine silver. He had black hair once upon a time but it is now shaven down to his scalp. He looks to be about 20-25. He wears a white button-up shirt, a brown vest, a brown jacket, and breeches. A pair of glasses with black metal frames was on the bridge of his nose.
His eyes and the corners of his mouth sometimes twitch errantly but he keeps quiet. His fingers tapped out a rhythmless tune on the table as his eyes flicked about the tavern.
