Spellcasting. Zezzamez'azzine casts one of the following spells, using Charisma as the spellcasting ability (spell save DC 13):

at will: poison spray (1d12)

2/day each: command, dispel magic, find steed (usually in the form of a giant spider)

Fey Ancestry. You have advantage on saving throws against being charmed, and magic can’t put you to sleep.

Multiattack. Zezzamez'azzine makes three attacks, using Glaive, Shortbow, or both. They may also replace one attack with their poison spray cantrip.

Glaive. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 9 (1d10 + 4) Slashing damage plus 9 (2d8) Necrotic damage.

Shortbow. Ranged Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, range 80/320 ft., one target. Hit: 6 (1d6 + 3) Piercing damage.

Dreadful Aspect (Recharges after a Short or Long Rest). Each enemy within 30 feet of the blackguard must succeed on a DC 13 Wisdom saving throw or be frightened of the blackguard for 1 minute. If a frightened target ends its turn more than 30 feet away from the blackguard, the target can repeat the saving throw, ending the effect on itself on a success.

Smite. Immediately after the blackguard hits a target with an attack roll, the blackguard can force that target to make a DC 13 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the target suffers one of the following effects of the blackguard’s choice:

Blind. The target is blinded for 1 minute. The blinded target can repeat the save at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

Shove. The target is pushed up to 10 feet away and knocked prone.
