Traits
Aura of Dread. Any creature that starts its turn within 10 feet of Zrakhor must succeed on a DC 14 Wisdom saving throw or be frightened until the start of its next turn. A frightened target can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
Innate Spellcasting. Zrakhor’s spellcasting ability is Charisma (spell save DC 14). He can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components:
At will: darkness
3/day each: misty step, hold person
1/day each: fear
Actions
Multiattack. Zrakhor makes two attacks: one with his Gloomblade and one with his Shadow Lash.
Gloomblade Strike. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 11 (1d8 + 4) slashing damage plus 7 (2d6) necrotic damage as shadows writhe over the wound.
Shadow Lash. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 9 (1d6 + 4) bludgeoning damage, and the target must succeed on a DC 14 Constitution saving throw or take 10 (3d6) necrotic damage as a wisp of darkness clings to them.
Legendary Actions
Shadow Shift. Zrakhor teleports up to 30 feet to an unoccupied space he can see and extinguishes or reignites any nonmagical light within 10 feet of his departure and arrival points.

Description

Standing just over six feet tall, Zrakhor is clad in blackened plate that seems to drink in the light. His helm bears cruel, jagged horns, and his single crimson eye glows through the visor’s slit. In one hand he wields the Gloomblade, a sword whose edge drips with shadow, and with his other hand he conjures tendrils of abyssal mist that coil around his form. Wherever he treads, the ground wilts and the air grows cold, as if reality recoils from his presence.

Lore: Forged in the depthless chasms of the Abyss, Zrakhor rose through the infernal legions by protecting high-ranking demon lords in battle. Whispered tales say he once single-handedly repelled an entire paladin host in a ruined cathedral, bathing the altar in unholy light before teleporting away. Demon Knights like him are bound by dark oaths to their masters, yet rumors persist that Zrakhor seeks a power beyond any demon lord’s grasp, stalking planar rifts in search of ancient relics.
