Modern
The small town of Havenridge, MO nestled in the Ozarks hides secrets
Author's Note: Havenridge, Missouri (population ~1,200), is a quiet town in the rolling hills near the Ozarks—a place of grain silos, Friday night football, and unspoken secrets. Beneath its sleepy surface, a hidden threat has taken root: a cabal of vampires, led by a cunning patriarch, has been manipulating the town for decades. Feeding on its people, controlling key figures, and covering their tracks, they’ve kept Havenridge as their private hunting ground. Recently, their grip has tightened—disappearances are up, strange markings appear on livestock, and a pervasive dread hangs in the air. The players, whether locals or newcomers, stumble into this bloody mystery and must unravel the vampires’ hold before the town becomes a ghost town.

Actions
Change Shape
The oni magically polymorphs into a Small or Medium humanoid, into a Large giant, or back into its true form. Other than its size, its statistics are the same in each form. The only equipment that is transformed is its glaive, which shrinks so that it can be wielded in humanoid form. If the oni dies, it reverts to its true form, and its glaive reverts to its normal size.
Claw (Oni Form Only)
Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d8 + 4) slashing damage.
Glaive
Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 15 (2d10 + 4) slashing damage, or 9 (1d10 + 4) slashing damage in Small or Medium form.
Multiattack
The oni makes two attacks, either with its claws or its glaive.
