Homebrew Yeti Species Details

A yeti's windborne howl sounds out across remote mountains, striking fear into the hearts of the scattered miners and herders that dwell there. These hulking creatures stalk alpine peaks in a hunt for food. Their snow-white fur lets them move like ghosts against the frozen landscape. A yeti's icy simian eyes can freeze its prey in place.

Speed

Your base walking speed is 30 feet, and you have a climb speed equal to your walking speed.

Chilling Gaze

When you take the Attack action on your turn, you can replace one of your attacks with a blast of wintery magic at one creature you can see within 30 feet. The creature must make a Constitution saving throw if it can see you. The DC for this saving throw equals 8 + your Constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus. A creature takes 2d6 damage and is paralyzed until the start of its next turn on a failed save, and half as much damage and is not paralyzed on a successful one. The damage increases to 3d6 at 5th level, 4d6 at 11th level, and 5d6 at 17th level.

You can use your Chilling Gaze a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
