War Caster. When a hostile creatures movement provokes an opportunity attack from you, you can use your reaction to cast a spell at the creature, rather than making an opportunity attack. The spell must have a casting time of 1 action and must target only that creature.
Christopher can take 3 legendary actions, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary action can be used at a time and only at the end of another creature's turn. Christopher regains spent legendary action at the start of his turn.
Cantrip (Costs 1 Action). Christopher casts a cantrip.
Ho Ho Ho (Costs 2 Actions). Christopher bellows a jolly laugh, all hostile creatures within a 30 foot radius must make a DC 18 Charisma save or become charmed until Christopher's next turn.

Description
A nine foot tall humanoid man, dressed in red, and weighing nearly nine hundred pounds. His eyes are dark and shiny, and his ears are slightly pointed. His shoulder length hair is beginning to whiten as well as the beard that spills over his chest and ends below his sternum. He carries a six foot long walking cane that is striped red and white.
Lair and Lair Actions
A mighty fortress sits somewhere within the Feywild, the region surround a barren arctic tundra that worsens into a murderous blizzard the closer one ventures to the workshop. Snowmen can be seen jauntily rolling threw the blizzard, patrolling Christopher's land and those who are spotted will watch as the snowman suddenly collapses and is whisked away by the howling wind.
Lair Actions
On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), Christopher takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects; Christopher can’t use the same effect two rounds in a row:
- Christopher claps his hands and suddenly a plate cookies and small jar of milk appears before him. The milk and cookies counts as a supreme healing potion (10d4 + 20) which he can chose to consume or save for later. He may also give these items to anyone he wishes. They must be consumed before this lair action can be used again.
- All the windows and doors fly open filling Christopher's workshop with the blistering cold of the outside blizzard. Each creature must succeed on a DC 17 Constitution saving throw or take 5 (1d10) cold damage. Gases and vapor are dispersed by the wind, and unprotected flames are extinguished. Protected flames, such as lanterns, have a 50 percent chance of being extinguished.
Regional Effects
The region containing The Legendary Christopher Saint's lair is frozen and harsh, which creates one or more of the following effects:
- Those who seek Christopher and would be considered "nice" are able to follow a trail of gingerbread people that somehow manages to remain visible even through the blizzard surround his workshop.
- Those who seek Christopher and would be considered "naughty" have naught but their wits to find the workshop and even then, good luck to them getting inside.
If Christopher dies, every plane in the multiverse will grow marginally darker and less joy will be harder to come by.
