Traits

 

  • Corrupted Aura: The Blightborn Guardian exudes an aura of decay. Creatures within 10 feet of it must make a DC 14 Constitution saving throw at the start of their turn or take 7 (2d6) necrotic damage. Creatures that succeed on the save are immune to this effect for 1 minute.

  • Amorphous Form: The Guardian can squeeze through spaces as narrow as 1 foot wide without squeezing penalties, and it has advantage on saving throws against being grappled or restrained.

  • Swamp Regeneration: While in a swampy environment, the Guardian regains 10 hit points at the start of its turn unless it takes radiant damage.

  • Blight Tether (Recharge 5-6): The Guardian lashes out with a tendril of ichor to grab a target within 30 feet. The target must make a DC 15 Strength saving throw or be pulled 20 feet closer and restrained. The tether deals 10 (3d6) necrotic damage per turn until the target escapes (DC 15 Athletics or Acrobatics).

Description

Description: The Blightborn Guardian is a horrific amalgamation of corrupted swamp creatures fused by the Nightmare Blight’s malevolent magic. Its form constantly shifts, with tendrils of black ichor lashing out from its bulbous, pulsating body. Sickly green lights flicker beneath its translucent skin, illuminating the twisted faces of creatures it has absorbed into its mass. Its scent is one of decay and stagnant water, and it moves with unsettling, unnatural grace despite its hulking size.
