Yzortama

The Ironclad Tankard is a fortress-like tavern on a war-torn frontier.

Author's Note: The Ironclad Tankard is designed to be a haven for those who have spent their lives fighting, whether in the trenches or on the open battlefield. It serves as a perfect location for characters seeking to rest, plot, or find mercenary work. With a robust and almost mythical atmosphere, it offers a setting for roleplay involving camaraderie, brawls, and opportunities for heroics. This tavern caters to the bold, and those who find themselves here must prove themselves either through their words, deeds, or sheer strength. Suggested Themes for Adventures: - Mercenary contracts or bounty hunting opportunities - Tournaments or challenges held within the tavern for gold and glory - Espionage and covert missions that take root in the tavern’s shadows - Fights between rival factions of adventurers, with stakes that could change the balance of power in nearby lands Feel free to use this tavern as a foundation for stories centered around warriors, camaraderie, and the rougher side of adventuring life.

Actions

Animate Chains

Up to four chains the devil can see within 60 feet of it magically sprout razor-edged barbs and animate under the devil's control, provided that the chains aren't being worn or carried. Each animated chain is an object with AC 20, 20 hit points, resistance to piercing damage, and immunity to psychic and thunder damage. When the devil uses Multiattack on its turn, it can use each animated chain to make one additional chain attack. An animated chain can grapple one creature of its own but can't make attacks while grappling. An animated chain reverts to its inanimate state if reduced to 0 hit points or if the devil is incapacitated or dies.

Chain

Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 11 (2d6 + 4) slashing damage. The target is grappled (escape DC 14) if the devil isn't already grappling a creature. Until this grapple ends, the target is restrained and takes 7 (2d6) piercing damage at the start of each of its turns.

Multiattack

The devil makes two attacks with its chains.
