Multiattack. Alcazzar the Eternal can use its Dreadful Glare and makes one attack with its Khopesh of The Withered. Alternatively, it can make two attacks with its Khopesh of The Withered, or one attack with its Khopesh of The Withered and cast a spell. When below 300 hit points, Alcazzar can make three attacks with its Khopesh of The Withered, but cannot cast spells using an action (legendary actions are unaffected).
Khopesh of The Withered Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 14 (3d6 + 4) slashing damage plus 40 (8d10) necrotic damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 16 Constitution saving throw or be cursed with the Curse of Withering Flesh . The cursed target can't regain hit points, and its hit point maximum decreases by 10 for every day that elapses. If the curse reduces the target's hit point maximum to 0, the target dies, and its body turns to dust. The curse lasts until removed by the remove curse spell or other magic.
Cursed item: the Khopesh is a cursed item, if this item is used it conveys the Curse of Withering Flesh onto the user. the curse does not progress unless the user is holding it, but if it is being held, the curse progresses every turn (6 seconds)
Dreadful Glare. Alcazzar the Eternal targets one creature it can see within 60 feet of it. If the target can see Alcazzar, it must succeed on a DC 16 Wisdom saving throw against this magic or become frightened until the end of Alcazzar's next turn. If the target fails the saving throw by 5 or more, it is also paralyzed for the same duration. A target that succeeds on the saving throw is immune to the Dreadful Glare of Alcazzar for the next 24 hours.

Lair and Lair Actions
Alcazzar the Eternal’s Lair
Alcazzar the Eternal can only be encountered in his lair.
his lair is a vast pyramid with a magical shield around it that cannot be destroyed or removed by anything short of a wish spell. Also, no god may enter, although they can give people inside their power. it has a huge number and variety of traps, and many undead/constructs. Alcazzar is found in his chamber, about 1/4 of a mile underground, it is a 100 ft by 100 ft square room, with Alcazzar's sarcophagus in the centre. 10 ft to the left and right of the sarcophagus are the obelisks of Khatep.
The Obelisks of Khatep: the Obelisks of Khatep are two black marble obelisks, each 15 ft tall, and covered in arcane symbols and hieroglyphs. they have 55 hit points each. Destroying them brings down the shield around the pyramid, and weakens Alcazzar's rejuvenation.
Alcazzar the Eternal encountered in his lair has a challenge rating of 25
Lair Actions
On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), Alcazzar the Eternal takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects; Alcazzar the Eternal can’t use the same effect two rounds in a row.
- Each undead creature in the lair can pinpoint the location of each living creature within 120 feet of it until initiative count 20 on the next round.
- Each undead in the lair has advantage on saving throws against effects that turn undead until initiative count 20 on the next round.
- Until initiative count 20 on the next round, any non-undead creature that tries to cast a spell of 4th level or lower in Alcazzar the Eternal’s lair is wracked with pain. The creature can choose another action, but if it tries to cast the spell, it must make a DC 16 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, it takes 1d6 necrotic damage per level of the spell, and the spell has no effect and is wasted.
Regional Effects
Alcazzar the Eternal’s pyramid is warped in all of the following ways by the creature’s dark presence:
- Divination spells cast within the lair by creatures other than Alcazzar have a 25 percent chance to provide misleading results, as determined by the DM. If a divination spell already has a chance to fail or become unreliable when cast multiple times, that chance increases by 25 percent.
- A creature that takes treasure from the lair is cursed until the treasure is returned. The cursed target has disadvantage on all saving throws. The curse lasts until removed by a remove curse spell or other magic.
If Alcazzar the Eternal is destroyed, these regional effects end immediately.
