Ryvian

Varisia is a land of ancient ruins. It hides secrets of Thassilon.


Author's Note: The town of Sandpoint welcomes you with open arms—a place of quiet beauty, seaside charm, and a fresh start. But beneath its peaceful surface lies a hidden past. Forgotten ruins dot the countryside. Old tales speak of lost empires and forbidden magics. And recently, subtle signs suggest something is beginning to stir. From mysterious happenings in remote corners of the world to whispers of long-buried evils, fate is weaving your path into something far greater than you imagined. What begins as a simple journey will become a battle against the legacy of an empire whose sins still linger—twisting the world in unseen ways. Rise of the Runelords is a sweeping fantasy epic where ancient secrets rise to the surface, unlikely heroes are forged in fire, and the echoes of the past demand reckoning. Adventure awaits. The world is changing. Will you rise to meet it?

Actions

Enslave

The aboleth targets one creature it can see within 30 ft. of it. The target must succeed on a DC 14 Wisdom saving throw or be magically charmed by the aboleth until the aboleth dies or until it is on a different plane of existence from the target. The charmed target is under the aboleth's control and can't take reactions, and the aboleth and the target can communicate telepathically with each other over any distance. Whenever the charmed target takes damage, the target can repeat the saving throw. On a success, the effect ends. No more than once every 24 hours, the target can also repeat the saving throw when it is at least 1 mile away from the aboleth.

Multiattack

The aboleth makes three tentacle attacks.

Tail

Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 10 ft. one target. Hit: 15 (3d6 + 5) bludgeoning damage.

Tentacle

Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 12 (2d6 + 5) bludgeoning damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 14 Constitution saving throw or become diseased. The disease has no effect for 1 minute and can be removed by any magic that cures disease. After 1 minute, the diseased creature's skin becomes translucent and slimy, the creature can't regain hit points unless it is underwater, and the disease can be removed only by heal or another disease-curing spell of 6th level or higher. When the creature is outside a body of water, it takes 6 (1d12) acid damage every 10 minutes unless moisture is applied to the skin before 10 minutes have passed.
