A fleshy compound of unborn egg pods, the ground walls and ceiling is covered in a thick flesh like substance and is considered rough terrain.

Lair Actions

On initiative count 14 (losing initiative ties), the Hive Mother takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects; the Hive Mother can’t use the same effect two rounds in a row:

  • The floors begin to grab the target by their legs and hold them down to the floor. The target must make a DC 16 Dex saving throw to dodge this effect. On a fail, the target must make a Strength Check, DC 18 to escape at the start of their turn. 
  • Spore clouds begin to form from the ceiling, raining down toxic fumes upon the targets. The targets must make a Con saving throw, DC19 or become paralyzed until the end of their next turn.

Regional Effects

The region containing a legendary Hive Mother’s lair is dried out and decaying.Trees become black and have a texture like rubber, and grass is greyed and dying, which creates one or more of the following effects:

  • No animals are ever seen entering or flying around this
  • The ground is covered in a light layer of fog.
  • the smell of rancid Vomit mixed with acid fills the air.

If the Hive Mother dies, these effects fade over the course of 4d6 Months.
