Deceiver Demon

A deceiver demon grants wishes, and the grant is real: a fortune arrives, a rival dies or a sick child stands up. The asker has no say in the form it takes. The demon never proposes a bargain, waits to be asked, confirms the wording twice and delivers exactly that wording.

Traits

  • Waits to Be Asked

    The demon will not propose a bargain. It confirms a request twice in the asker's own words and then fulfills it exactly.

  • Four Arms

    Can hold and use four objects at once, and makes opportunity attacks against up to two creatures on the same turn.

Actions

  • Multiattack

    Makes two pincer attacks and one fist attack.

  • Pincer

    +9 to hit · reach 10 ft.

    2d10 + 5 bludgeoning damage

    If the target is of Medium size or smaller it is Grappled (escape DC 17).

  • Fist

    +9 to hit · reach 5 ft.

    2d6 + 5 bludgeoning damage

    A punch from one of its fists.

  • Confusion

    Each creature in a 30-foot radius within 120 feet makes a DC 17 Wisdom save. On a failure it cannot tell allies from enemies until the end of its next turn and moves and attacks at random.

  • Twisted Grant

    One creature within 60 feet that has stated a want aloud in the past minute makes a DC 17 Charisma save. On a failure it receives what it asked for in the worst form the wording permits, and takes 8d10 psychic damage when it understands what it has.
