Close Wounds. Unless it is sufficient to kill it, the wall heals the 1 point of damage from each attack per every other member after the first. Radiant and cold damage is unaffected by closing wounds.
Stretch. The wall moves by stretching a part of it into new space and shuffling the rest of it to fit with it.
Spellcasting. A Wall of Flesh is a 3rd-level spellcaster. Its spellcasting ability is Wisdom (spell save DC 13, +5 to hit with spell attacks). It has the following druid spells prepared:

Description
A Wall of Sacrifice is formed when three or more people sacrifice themselves to serve as the eternal protection for someone or something in the course of a ritual. There are always a prime number of participants, each fully devoted to the cause, and at least one must be a druid. They always are between first and third level - that is, skilled but not powerful enough to be converted into any other, more powerful, type of undead on their own. While the ritual and devotion leading to it are not themselves evil, the sort of person who demands to be protected in such a way almost always is.
The wall, when first encountered, seems to be a group of oddly preserved corpses, but once the target of their adoration is threatened, they merge and form a barrier composed of the body parts of the sacrifices. This barrier starts occupying five feet by eight feet square per body, but can stretch an additional five feet for each body after the first. The wall may be climbed as a normal wall. It attacks with pseudopods it exudes from itself, once for every participant per round, as well as magic. The more members, the longer the pseudopods get, at the rate of five feet per every two additional members.
The wall retains the skills its participants had in life. For example, if a rogue was incorporated into it, it can sneak attack. While capable of performing magic, the wall isn’t truly sapient. It has one goal, and that is to protect the target of its affection. It can not communicate, and any telepathy will find a brain that is sub-bestial.
For each additional sacrificial victim beyond the first three, the wall increases in length by 5 ft, gains an additional attack, and one point of Strength and one of Dexterity, modifying its other statistics accordingly.
