Probability Distortion. Merielle passively distorts probability around herself, inverting the expected outcome of attacks.

• When a creature makes an attack roll against Merielle, the result is inverted:

  • If the attack roll would hit Merielle’s Armor Class, it misses instead.

  • If the attack roll would miss Merielle’s Armor Class, it hits instead.

This trait applies only to attack rolls and does not affect saving throws, ability checks, or effects that do not rely on an attack roll.

Limitations and Clarifications:

• A natural 20 still counts as a critical hit.

• A natural 1 still counts as an automatic miss.

• Effects that deal damage without an attack roll (such as fireball, disintegrate, or lair actions requiring saving throws) are unaffected.

• This trait does not change damage rolls, only whether the attack hits or misses.

• This effect is considered magical and reality-warping, and cannot be suppressed by antimagic field unless the DM rules Merielle as a purely magical entity.
