Traits

Aberrent Physiology. The spawn doesn't require air, food, drink, or sleep.

Born to Darkness. Magical darkness doesn't impede the spawn's darkvision.

Magic Resistance. The spawn has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.

Shapechanger. The spawn can use its action to polymorph into a beast form that resembles a centipede (40 ft., climb 40 ft.), an octopus (5 ft., swim 30 ft.), a star-nosed mole (speed 20 ft., burrow 20 ft.), or back into its true form. Its statistics are the same in each form, except for the speed changes noted. Any equipment it is wearing or carrying melds into the new form. It reverts to its true form if it dies.

Actions

Invisibility. The spawn magically turns invisible until it attacks or until its concentration ends (as if concentrating on a spell). Any equipment the spawn wears or carries is invisible with it.

Touch of Madness. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 5 (1d4+3) bludgeoning damage plus 7 (2d6) psychic damage.

Description

A monster of vaguely anthropoid outline, but with an octopus-like head whose face is a mass of feelers, a scaly, rubbery-looking body, prodigious claws on hands and feet, and narrow wings behind.

Appearing as a tiny simulacrum of great Cthulhu, they are created spontaneously from his dreams. They can be found in the Far Realm or places where the veil between worlds is weak. Their motives are as inscrutable as that of their progenitor, and they rarely make their presence known on the Material Plane. The exception is Great Old One Warlocks, whom they seem drawn to, and often become familiars.
