It can replace one Claw  attack  with a use of Terrifying Mask. \n'b'  Claw .  Melee Weapon Attack : +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target.  Hit : 15 (3d8 + 2) slashing damage. \n'b'  Terrifying Mask . Each non-Undead creature within 60 feet of the dissimortuum that can see it must succeed on a DC 15  Wisdom  saving throw or be  frightened  for 1 minute. A  frightened  creature can repeat the saving throw, ending the effect on itself on a success. If a target\xe2\x80\x99s saving throw is successful or the effect ends for it, the target becomes immune to the dissimortuum\xe2\x80\x99s Terrifying Mask for the next 24 hours. \n'b'\n'b' ABOUT \n'b' This twisted humanoid has gray flesh and black claws that drip blood. A bone mask is bound to its head by strips of putrid flesh, and a third arm hangs from the right side of the creature\xe2\x80\x99s body, its hand clutching a large sack stained with blood. \n'b'  Plague Bringers . Dissimortuum are undead monstrosities constructed by necromancers to spread the undead plague, slowly but surely. These creatures are rare but tenacious. A dissimortuum obeys orders from the necromancer whose magic created it. When a dissimortuum kills, it collects body parts from its victims and keeps them in a sack that it carries with its third arm at all times. The monster sets down its sack of trophies only when pressed in combat, to make the most of its extra limb. \n'b'  Constructing Dissimortuum . Even when not following instructions, a dissimortuum seeks to create more of its own kind. The creature wanders graveyards, battlefields, and slums, searching for the gruesome components it needs to construct a mask and body for its undead offspring. The process is slow, taking up to a month to make a single mask, but a dissimortuum has plenty of time. The new creation is independent and not under the control of its maker or of the necromancer that might have created its maker. \n'b'  Dissimortuum\xe2\x80\x99s Cursed Mask. \xc2\xa0The dissimortuum\xe2\x80\x99s mask is nigh indestructible. When the creature is destroyed, its mask usually survives and breaks free. On its own, the object emits a faint magical aura with mixed enchantment and necromantic properties. It is a tempting souvenir, but any humanoid or giant foolish enough to don the mask is immediately wracked by pain and takes 7 (2d6) necrotic damage. The creature must succeed on a DC 15  Wisdom  saving throw or become dominated by the mask. The domination arrives slowly. The creature acts normally for a day or two, but then the creature notices periods of time that cannot be accounted for. During these unremembered times, the creature gathers the grisly components needed to build a new body for the dissimortuum. This process takes a week, after which the creature is freed from domination as the dissimortuum arises anew and dons its mask once more.'
