Ethereal Ambush: On the first round of combat, the Corruptor has advantage on attack rolls against any creature it surprised.
Shadow Stealth: While in dim light or darkness, the Corruptor can take the Hide action as a bonus action.
Life Drain: Melee Spell Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature. Hit: 16 (3d8 + 3) necrotic damage. The target's hit point maximum is reduced by an amount equal to the necrotic damage taken, and the Corruptor regains hit points equal to that amount. The reduction lasts until the target finishes a long rest.
Veil of Shadows (Recharge 5–6): The Corruptor casts a 15-foot-radius sphere of darkness centered on itself. The sphere moves with the Corruptor and lasts for 1 minute or until the Corruptor is incapacitated or dies. The darkness is magical and can't be illuminated by light spells of 2nd level or lower.
Phase Through: When the Corruptor is hit by an attack, it can use its reaction to become ethereal until the start of its next turn, causing the attack to miss unless it can hit ethereal creatures.
Description
Ethereal and Shadowy Form:
The Corruptors of the Veil are haunting and enigmatic figures. They have a ghostly, semi-transparent appearance, with their bodies seemingly woven from the shadows and mists of the netherworld. Their forms are fluid and shifting, never quite settling into a solid shape, giving them an otherworldly and intangible presence.
Eyes and Facial Features:
The most striking feature of the Corruptors is their eyes, which glow with a sinister, pale light. These eyes seem to pierce through the veil of reality, seeing into the very essence of their prey. Their facial features are vague and constantly changing, like a nightmare that is both terrifying and elusive.
Aura of Darkness:
Surrounding each Corruptor is a shroud of darkness that seems to absorb the light around it. This aura is not just physical but also metaphysical, representing the Corruptors' ability to manipulate the shadows and the veil between worlds.
Whispering Voices:
The Corruptors speak in hushed, whispering tones that seem to echo from another realm. Their speech is often cryptic and laced with malevolent intent, as though they are privy to dark secrets and forbidden knowledge.
Movement:
Corruptors glide gracefully and silently, barely touching the ground as they move. They can appear and disappear into shadows with ease, making them elusive and unpredictable in their movements. In combat, they are swift and agile, darting in and out of the darkness.
Hands and Claws:
Their hands are long and slender, ending in sharp, ethereal claws that can drain the life force from their victims. These claws seem to be extensions of the Corruptors' dark energy, capable of piercing through both physical and spiritual defenses.
Mist and Shadow:
When they manifest their powers, the Corruptors are often enveloped in a swirling mist or shadow, further obscuring their form and adding to their menacing demeanor. This mist can spread and envelop their surroundings, creating an environment where they are masters of stealth and ambush.
