Blighted Scourge. The Blighted Warrior's weapons are tainted with Blighted energy, allowing them to spread the Blighted Scourge. When the Blighted Warrior hits a target with a weapon attack, the target must succeed on a DC 12 Wisdom saving throw or become infected with the Blighted Scourge. (Stages and effects of The Blighted Scourge remain the same.)
Hive mind. All the blighted ones possess a hive mentality with one another. So generally, where there's one, many follow.
Death Burst. When the Blighted Warrior drops to 0 hit points, it self-destructs, forcing a DC 12 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, creatures within 25 feet are infected with the Blighted Scourge.
Multiattack. The Blighted Warrior makes two longsword attacks.
Blighted Longsword: Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d8 + 3) slashing damage. On a hit, the target must succeed on a DC 12 Wisdom saving throw or become infected with the Blighted Scourge.
Blighted Throwing Axe: Ranged Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, range 20/60 ft., one target. Hit: 6 (1d6 + 3) slashing damage. On a hit, the target must succeed on a DC 12 Wisdom saving throw or become infected with the Blighted Scourge.
Description
Once a proud fighter, the Blighted Warrior has been fully consumed by the corrupting energy of the Blighted Scourge. Its skin is darkened and cracked, with glowing veins of infection coursing through its form. Clad in tattered, blighted armor, its presence radiates an eerie, unnatural energy. Wielding a corrupted longsword that pulses with infectious power, it moves with unsettling precision, as though guided by an unseen force. Blighted tendrils creep from its body, further twisting its form, making it a terrifying force in battle. Though still humanoid, its soul has long since been devoured by the hive mind, leaving behind only a vessel of relentless destruction.
