Description
A consequential mutation of an intellect devourer consuming an elder brain, the Brain Devourer Worm is twice as deadly and just as formidable. With its immense psychic abilities and its hunger for more knowledge it is a rare and deadly creature to behold. If you cross paths with one do not let it sense you, for if you are caught you just might become one of its thralls or worse...find your brain sucked from out of your head.
Lair and Lair Actions
The brain devourer worm's lair lies deep in the heart of mountains. It dwells in a cavern of its own creation spacious enough to fit its massive form and psionic energy.
Lair Actions
On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), the devourer worm takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects; the devourer worm can’t use the same effect two rounds in a row:
- The Brain Devourer Worm creates 1d4 Intellect Devourers.
- The Brain Devourer Worm targets one friendly creature it can sense within 120 feet of it. The target has a flash of inspiration and gains advantage on one attack roll, ability check, or saving throw it makes before the end of its next turn. If the target doesn't or can't use this benefit in that time, the inspiration is lost.
- The Brain Devourer Worm targets one creature it can sense within 120 feet of it and anchors it by sheer force of will. The target must succeed on a DC 18 Charisma saving throw or be unable to leave its current space. It can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
