Telepathic Bond. The Crypt Mistress ignores the range restriction on its telepathy when communicating with a creature it has charmed. The two don't even need to be on the same plane of existence.
Lie with Dogs. If a living being makes physical contact with the Crypt Mistress, make a DC 13 Constitution saving throw. On a fail, affected player or creature contracts the disease Sewer Plague (DMG pg.257). Those affected by Vile Kiss automatically fail this saving throw.
Those that contract Sewer Plague due to the Crypt Mistress must make a DC 14 Constitution save instead of a DC 11 constitution save for the effects of Sewer Plague.
Claw . Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 6 (1d6 + 3) slashing damage.
Undead Seduction. One humanoid the Crypt Mistress can see within 30 feet of it must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw or be magically charmed for 1 day. The charmed target obeys the Crypt Mistress's verbal or telepathic commands. If the target suffers any harm or receives a suicidal command, it can repeat the saving throw, ending the effect on a success. If the target successfully saves against the effect, or if the effect on it ends, the target is immune to the Crypt Mistress's Undead Seduction for the next 24 hours.
The Crypt Mistress can have only one target charmed at a time. If it charms another, the effect on the previous target ends.
Hear Your Mistress. The crypt mistress can use Undead Seduction on any number of undead in the abilities area of effect and those creatures automatically fail their saving throw. This action ignores Undead Seductions target limit.
Serve Your Mistress. The Crypt Mistress can cast Animate Dead at a 3rd level spell slot (3/day)
Vile Kiss. The Crypt Mistress kisses a creature charmed by it or a willing creature. The target must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw against this magic, taking (5d10 + 5) Necrotic damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The target's 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.
An undead creature affected by Vile Kiss instead regains 2d6+4 Hit Points
Description
Undead Seductress. A more demonic version of the fiendish succubus, the Crypt Mistress seeks to get its vile pleasure from the Undead. The Mistress will seek to make humanoid creatures that confront it join its unholy harem whether through violence or foul magics.
Deathly Entourage. the Crypt Mistress will almost always have an entourage of undead following it, whether it be draugr, zombies, or anything it can raise.
Disease Riddled. Lie with dogs, wake with fleas. The Crypt Mistress spends all their time with the undead, and such has contracted a myriad of rotting diseases that it will happily pass on to whatever creature it can.
Shunned by Nature. Even other demons think the actions of the Crypt Mistress are disgusting and abhorrent. All life, even abyssal, will shun and spurn the crypt mistress, leaving them to search for the abandoned crypts of the world in solitude.
