BloodWarden Snail

Living Lockdown

The Bloodwarden emits a suppressive aura (15 ft):

• Creatures in the aura have –1 to attack rolls

• Spellcasting requires a DC 10 CON check or fizzles (spell slot not lost)

(This reinforces prison oppression without hard-locking casters.)

Reinforced Shell

The Bloodwarden has three Shell Plates.

• Each plate grants +1 AC (already included)

• A plate breaks when the snail takes 30 damage

• When a plate breaks: the snail loses 5 ft speed and its AC drops by 1

Visually describe cracking shell segments.

Inevitable Advance

The Bloodwarden cannot be restrained and ignores difficult terrain.

Multiattack

The Bloodwarden makes two attacks: one Slam and one Acid Spray (if available).

Slam

Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 10 ft
Hit: 12 (2d6 + 4) bludgeoning damage
If the target fails a DC 12 STR save, they are pushed 10 ft and knocked prone.

Acid Spray (Recharge 5–6)

The Bloodwarden sprays corrosive bile in a 30-ft cone.

• DEX Save DC 13

• Fail: 14 (4d6) acid damage

• Success: half damage

• The ground becomes acid-slick (difficult terrain) for 1 round

Chain Drag

Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 15 ft
Hit: 8 (1d8 + 4) bludgeoning damage, and the target is grappled
While grappled, the target takes 4 acid damage at start of their turn.

Shell Reposition

The Bloodwarden rotates its shell, crushing chains and debris.

• One creature within 5 ft must make DEX Save DC 12

• Fail: knocked prone and restrained until end of next turn

Crushing Rebuff

When hit by a melee attack:

• Attacker takes 3 bludgeoning damage

• The snail shifts 5 ft without provoking opportunity attacks
