The Verdant Abyss

x
xVenngeance

A sprawling jungle realm of unparalleled beauty and creeping menace.


Author's Note: Despite its vibrant beauty, the Verdant Abyss is haunted by a malignant force known as the Creeping Death. This dark, shadowy corruption emanates from an ancient, long-forgotten ruin buried deep within the jungle. Its influence spreads like a malignancy through the land, turning once-lush foliage into twisted, grotesque mockeries of their former selves. The Creeping Death manifests as a creeping darkness that consumes light and life, leaving behind a blighted wasteland.

Roar

The sphinx emits a magical roar. Each time it roars before finishing a long rest, the roar is louder and the effect is different, as detailed below. Each creature within 500 feet of the sphinx and able to hear the roar must make a saving throw. First Roar. Each creature that fails a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw is frightened for 1 minute. A frightened creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. Second Roar. Each creature that fails a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw is deafened and frightened for 1 minute. A frightened creature is paralyzed and can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. Third Roar. Each creature makes a DC 18 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes 44 (8d10) thunder damage and is knocked prone. On a successful save, the creature takes half as much damage and isn't knocked prone.
