Description
The Bone Carver is an anomaly of sorts. It has strong telekinetic abilities and will appear as a medium or small sized significant being from the character's memory. Each person sees the Carver as a different being.
The Bone Carver is incredibly intelligent and it is possible to barter with one by offering it a bone from a rare source.
Lair and Lair Actions
Frequently made in large caves, a Bone Carver's lair is decorated in the bones of various other monsters, whether they were scavenged or killed. The bones create decorations on the walls and frequently make up pathways and gateways in the cave, making traps incorporated into the walls nearly impossible to notice.
Lair Actions
On initiative count 18 (losing initiative ties), the Bone Carver takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects; the Bone Carver can’t use the same effect two rounds in a row:
- Tremors run through the ground as the Bones of the Earth spell is cast at no spell slot cost
- One of the Bone Carver's traps is activated, causing a trap from the Bone Carver trap list to target a player or players
