Specific Monsters
The First Owlbear
N advanced mythic owlbear, CR 10/MR 4
The original owlbear, still alive after all this time.
- Flight: Unlike most owlbears, the original can fly.
- Interspecies Romance: He has a harem of bears, giant owls, and owlbears, though the offspring are always owlbears.
- Monster Progenitor: Most, if not all, owlbears can trace their lineage back to him.
- Resurrective Immortality: If killed he comes back to life 24 hours later, even if there weren't any remains.
The Mistress of the Fen
N female unique water orm, CR 12
Dwelling in some unknown fen, the Mistress of the Fen is worshipped by changeling witches as a manifestation of the swamp itself.
Jyangzipao
An underworld dragon bound to the Iron Road.
- Empty Shell: Being bound to the relic has made him into little more than a portal system without drive or will of his own, though destroying the talisman may restore his mind.
- A Head at Each End: He has a head at each end of his body.
- Hellgate: His mouths are portals to Hell.
Sentient Items
The Frozen Heart of Cocytus
The heart of some unknown being trapped within an egg shaped chunk of ice.
- Ambiguous Situation: The description states unambiguously that it can communicate with its holder and urge them to certain actions, but it lacks the information most sentient items have, making it unclear whether the heart is itself intelligent or merely a conduit for another entity.
- Big Brother Is Watching: It can serve this role, spying on entire cities at once.
- The Chessmaster: It urges its user to use the information it gives them to increase their own wealth and standing
- Crystal Ball: It's main property lets it be used as one.
- Dragged Off to Hell: Those who never attempt to resist its knowledge or its instructions will eventually vanish to the frozen place that spawned it.
- Heart Trauma: Beyond the obvious involved in removing and freezing it, the heart is apparently still alive. It's not usually obvious but melting the ice trapping it will allow it to beat again.
-
Lawful Evil: Its name indicates Hellish origins, which would make this its alignment. -
Paranoia Fuel: The longer one uses it to spy, the more it tells the user. Social dynamics, secrets, economic influences, all laid bare to the user.
Plaguebringer
NE mythic plague
An intelligent virus that seeks to infect others.
- Flight: It can move on its own when outside of a host.
- Heroic Sacrifice: Destroying Plaguebringer requires it to infect an angel, which must willingly sacrifice itself in the heart of a star.
- No-Sell: While infected with Plaguebringer, a creature is immune to all effects of diseases.
- The Plague: An intelligent one. As an additional bonus, anyone infected with Plaguebringer automatically fails all saves to resist being infected with diseases and can magically infect others with random diseases.
- Power at a Price: It gives a list of abilities to its hosts, with the caveat that it will use its host to spread disease.
The Draddeth Edge
LN +1 defiant transformative warhammer
A warhammer containing the mind of General Lord Draddeth, a stellar military tactician.
- Appropriated Appellation: Saying someone has "the Draddeth edge" is a way of saying they're an excellent tactician, which eventually came to refer to the weapon as well.
- But Now I Must Go: When he feels his wielder's reaching the height of their career he vanishes to reappear to a new wielder.
- The Strategist: Anyone who wields him, as he grants his knowledge of warfare and tactics to his wielder.
- Voluntary Shapeshifting: It often masquerades as a common weapon, revealing itself only when a wielder has proven themselves.
