You create a simulacrum of one Beast or Humanoid that is within 10 feet of you for the entire casting of the spell. You finish the casting by touching both the creature and a pile of ice or snow that is the same size as that creature, and the pile turns into the simulacrum, which is a creature. It uses the game statistics of the original creature at the time of casting, except it is a Construct,…

By experimenting on the slimes, jellies, and puddings that infest the depths of the Underdark, mind flayers created a special breed of Ooze, the oblex—a slime capable of assaulting the minds of other creatures. These pools of jelly are cunning hunters that feed on thoughts and memories. The sharper the mind, the better the meal, so oblexes hunt targets more likely to be intelligent, such as…
All enemies fight to the death. The death knight uses Simulacrum as often as possible and Swap Places frequently to target the weakest combatants. It won’t use Hellfire Orb if that would affect the cultists. Each round at Initiative count 0, the Tear-Stained Idol pulses with sickly green light and a Ray of Sickness streaks from it. Make a +7 ranged spell attack targeting a random enemy within 60…

The Manshoon of today retains all his progenitor’s arrogance and duplicity. Manshoon keeps several other clones at hand to activate if necessary. He also employs the Simulacrum spell to duplicate himself, his allies, and even his rivals. Manshoon knows that keeping people guessing about hidden identities makes them easier to manipulate. Manshoon usually wears a mask and concealing robes when…
Evil Wizard of Duplicity and Duplication Manshoon is an evil, arrogant wizard who was an instrumental founder of the Zhentarim centuries ago. That Manshoon is dead, and the current Manshoon is one of the original’s many clones. Being a magical copy rather than an original doesn’t make Manshoon any less of a threat, as he’s amassed magical skill and political influence he uses for his own gain.…

In their natural forms, mimics are little more than roaming stomachs, their blobby bodies covered with alien eyes and teeth. They can alter their color, texture, and dimensions to duplicate inanimate objects of their approximate size. Mimics use their disguises as both camouflage and bait. Once victims draw close, mimics strike, lashing out with their sticky pseudopods and toothy mouths. After…
Shape-Shifter Disguised as an Unassuming Object In their natural forms, mimics are little more than roaming stomachs, their blobby bodies covered with alien eyes and teeth. They can alter their color, texture, and dimensions to duplicate inanimate objects of their approximate size.
You create an illusory copy of yourself that lasts for the duration. The copy can appear at any location within range that you have seen before, regardless of intervening obstacles. The illusion looks and sounds like you, but it is intangible. If the illusion takes any damage, it disappears, and the spell ends. You can see through the illusion’s eyes and hear through its ears as if you were in…
The diminutive relative of the mimic, the mock is a tiny shapechanger that replicates small, valuable objects to lure in its victims. In the desert, a mock might take the form of a canteen of precious water, and in a dungeon, it may replicate a sizable jewel or a spare Gold Piece. If an adventurer is caught by surprise, a mock is just as dangerous as its larger relatives, for can hide in far less…

What is it that you want, and how badly do you want it? A magic sword that will slay your enemies? An amulet that will guide you to your one true love? A spellbook that will earn you renown as the greatest wizard of the age? The Merchant has all of those things. But unlike the Traveler, the Merchant of Misthaven doesn’t give gifts. Everything has a price; are you willing to pay it? The Merchant’s…
As Little Drego led the old tribex to market, the Merchant stopped him on the road. “That’s a fine beast you have there,” she said. “I’ve need of a ‘bex to haul my goods back to Misthaven. But I’ve precious little left to trade. All I have is this pewter ring, which makes the wearer invisible. Would you take it for your beast?” That old tribex barely had three working legs, and Drego was no fool.…

Quivering masses of acidic goo, gelatinous cubes wobble through narrow caverns and dungeons, engulfing anything in their paths. These Oozes are naturally transparent, making them difficult to see while they’re stationary. Creatures and objects that become stuck within these slimes are gradually dissolved. Undigested detritus sometimes floats within a gelatinous cube, hinting at its past meals.…
