Description
The Child's Ghost appears as a neutrally gendered child. They have curly blonde hair and deep inset eyes, ringed by dark circles. They are clutching a dirty, torn stuffed bear. One of the bears button eyes is missing and there is stuffing poking out at the neck. The Child's Ghost is dressed in a plain white shift and white slippers. They have half a smile on their face, and their eyes never seem to focus on anything specific.
Lair and Lair Actions
The Child's Ghost haunts the location of their particularly dark and chaotic death. The area is noticeably colder than the setting surrounding it. Flames flicker strangely, and intricate mechanisms (such as the warforged) tend to misbehave. Plants won't grow in the area of the haunting, and sickness develops quickly is a creature spends too much time in the area.
For every 10 minutes a creature remains in the Child's Ghost's lair, the creature will take 1d4 cold damage.
