Description

 

 

Lair and Lair Actions

Their Lair is riddled with moss and a mucus like substance. Inside the mucus lay eggs and babies of all different shapes and sizes collected by the abomination seemingly held in stasis. The Abomination slowly chokes the life of the land by stealing all the eggs and newborns causing the population to slowly die off.

Lair Actions

On initiative count 12 (losing initiative ties), the Algo'Kai takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects; the Algo'Kai can’t use the same effect two rounds in a row:

  • Take the hide action and dash action while moving silently, even in water

Regional Effects

The region containing a Algo'Kai’s lair is lifeless, which creates one or more of the following effects:

  • Seemingly dead silent outside of the rare animal
  • Any animal is very rare

If the Algo'Kai dies, these effects fade over the course of 30 days.
