Character

Dullahan

Created by DARKoACE

Dullahan, the commander of the undead army in the eerie realm of Bridsmithber, was once a fearsome mortal warrior who sought immortality through dark pacts with sinister forces. Captivated by the promise of eternal power, he made a bargain with the very embodiment of death itself, surrendering his mortal head in exchange for unimaginable might. Now, he rides his spectral steed, his severed head held high in one hand, wielding a massive black blade in the other, forever bound to guard the entrance to the Immortal Citadel, the seat of his unholy dominion. Clad in impenetrable black armor, Dullahan leads his legion of undead soldiers, their soulless eyes reflecting the boundless ambition that drove him to this cursed state, as he stands vigilant against any who would dare challenge his dark reign over the land of Bridsmithber.

Actions

Multiattack

Dullahan makes three attacks: one with his Blade of the Undead and two with his spectral hands.

Blade of the Undead

Melee Weapon Attack: +10 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 3d10 + 5 slashing damage. On a critical hit, the target must succeed on a DC 18 Constitution saving throw or be paralyzed until the end of their next turn.

Spectral Grasp

Ranged Spell Attack: +9 to hit, range 30 ft., one target. Hit: 4d8 necrotic damage, and the target must succeed on a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw or be frightened until the end of their next turn.

Command Undead

Dullahan can attempt to control undead creatures within 60 feet. Each undead must make a DC 18 Charisma saving throw. On a failure, they are under Dullahan's control for 24 hours.

Headless Charge

Dullahan can dash forward up to 30 feet in a straight line. Each creature in that line must make a DC 18 Dexterity saving throw, taking 4d10 necrotic damage on a failed save, or half as much on a successful one.

Abilities

Undead Fortitude

If damage reduces Dullahan to 0 hit points, he must make a Constitution saving throw with a DC of 5 + the damage taken, unless the damage is radiant or from a critical hit. On a success, he drops to 1 hit point instead.
