Traits

Incorporeal Movement. The wraith can move through other creatures and objects as if they were difficult terrain. It takes 5 (1d10) force damage if it ends its turn inside an object.

Sunlight Sensitivity.
While in sunlight, the wraith has disadvantage on attack rolls, as well as on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight.

Spellcasting.
The arcane wraith is an 8th-level spellcaster. Its spellcasting ability is Charisma (spell save DC 13, +5 to hit with spell attacks). The wraith knows the following sorcerer spells:
At-will - mage hand, magic missile, minor illusion
3/day - lightning bolt
1/day - hypnotic pattern

Actions

Life Drain. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature. Hit: 21 (4d8 + 3) necrotic damage. The target must succeed on a DC 14 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.

Create Specter.
The wraith targets a humanoid within 10 feet of it that has been dead for no longer than 1 minute and died violently. The target's spirit rises as a specter in the space of its corpse or in the nearest unoccupied space. The specter is under the wraith's control. The wraith can have no more than seven specters under its control at one time.

Description

Campaign: Dungeons of Drakkenheim

Many of the spellcasters who have died in Drakkenheim have become disembodied and corrupt undead spirits, still flowing with arcane power but twisted into evil, shadowy forms.  They drift through the ruins, hungering for magical essence as much as living life force. 


Lair and Lair Actions

The Haze is functionally the lair of all monsters within Drakkenheim.

Fully Contaminated.
 This creature is immune to contamination, and has advantage on saving throws against contaminated spells.

Haze Adaptation. This creature may benefit from a long rest finished within the Haze. It can see twice as far through the Haze mists and Deep Haze fog.

Haze Dependence. This creature gains one level of exhaustion for every twenty four hours it spends outside the Haze. These exhaustion levels cannot be removed while the creature is outside the Haze.

Delerium Healing. As an action, a monster can touch a delerium shard to regain 10 (3d6) hit points. Once a monster has used a delerium shard in this way, the shard can’t be used in this manner again for twenty four hours.

Habitat: Urban
