Deflective Retaliation: When the Armored Slasher is hit by a ranged weapon attack, it can use its reaction to attempt to deflect the attack back at the attacker. The attacker must make a Dexterity DC 19 saving throw. On a failed save, the attacker takes the same damage that the attack would have dealt to the Armored Slasher.
Evasion: If the Armored Slasher is subjected to an effect that allows it to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, it instead takes no damage if it succeeds on the saving throw and only half damage if it fails.
Multiattack: The Armored Slasher makes three attacks: two with its Slashing Blades and one with its Unholy Slash.
Slashing Blades: Melee Weapon Attack: +11 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 20 (3d6 + 7) slashing damage.
Unholy Slash: Melee Weapon Attack: +11 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 26 (4d6 + 7) necrotic damage.
Ghostly Gaze (Bonus Action): The Armored Slasher can use its bonus action to activate its Ghostly Gaze, gaining the ability to move through other creatures and objects as if they were difficult terrain. It takes 5 (1d10) force damage if it ends its turn inside an object.
Teleportation (Recharge 5-6): The Armored Slasher magically teleports up to 60 feet to an unoccupied space it can see.
The Armored Slasher can take 3 legendary actions, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary action option can be used at a time, and only at the end of another creature's turn. The Armored Slasher regains spent legendary actions at the start of its turn.

Description
The Armored Slasher is a nightmarish undead creature, adorned in spectral armor that deflects all but the most potent attacks. Its agile movements and ghostly gaze make it an elusive and maddening foe to confront. Legends speak of this relentless adversary's ability to send back ranged attacks with deadly precision, turning attackers into victims of their own strikes.
Rumored to be created from the tormented souls of fallen warriors, the Armored Slasher appears as a spectral warrior wielding razor-sharp blades that slice through armor and flesh with eerie ease. Its evasive nature and near-invulnerability make it a frustrating adversary for any adventurers who cross its path.
The Armored Slasher is known to haunt ancient battlefields, forsaken ruins, and desolate tombs. Few who have encountered this relentless apparition live to tell the tale, for its swift strikes and uncanny ability to vanish into the shadows make it a foe best left unprovoked. Adventurers who dare to face the Armored Slasher should prepare for a harrowing battle where their attacks may become their own downfall.
