Lair and Lair Actions
Mist of Bracklewhyte
The Mist protects island of Bracklewhyte by bringing it to a pocket dimension. Creatures can't escape the Mist, which looms in the water surrounding the islands. If a ship sails into the mist, it returns after a while. Sometimes the Mist weakens, allowing the islands to briefly visit normal world. Sometimes unsuspecting ships slip through into the mist and bring their crews into the pocket dimension, before The Order of the Mist manages to strengthen the Mist with human sacrifice and remove it from the world once again. This mist unfortunately doesn't let the dead souls out either, creating the Creature of the Mist to haunt those living within.
Lair Actions
On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), the Creature takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects; The Creature can’t use the same effect two rounds in a row.
- Teleport. The Creature can teleport to anywhere on the island within its mist.
- Essence of mist. The Creature knows where all living creature are within the Mist.
- Persist. The Creature can't be permanently killed while the mist exists, and is destroyed if the mist disappears. The Mist attacks stop for 24 hours, but continue immediately after.
Regional Effects
Mist rolls over the island somewhat randomly, usually 2-5 times a day and last for 10 minutes. Mist rarely comes right after another, but it happens. Cicadas give warning 5 minutes before and chapel keepers toll the bell, which can be heard all around the island. The mist doesn´t enter buildings painted yellow. The mist chokes living creatures, causing them to have disadvantage on constitution and strength rolls, while also reducing visibility to 60ft. Creature hunts within the Mist and can appear where it wishes, usually attacking immediately.
The creature can't enter yellow buildings and otherwise avoids yellow color if possible. This is due to color of the ritual room, in which the Order kills its victims.
