The creatures known as Trikarii are strange and almost unknowable, their alien mindset and bizarre physiology setting them very much apart from mortal races. Their limbs are long and many-jointed, and they seem to perceive time completely differently from mortals. They say they hail from a crystal palace beyond the Far Realms, on the borders of the Ethereal Plane, and occasionally journey to the Prime for reasons they do not explain.
Their motives are unknown and sometimes confusing, sometimes even acting against one another and taking things extremely civilly. Hooks:

A trikarii is able to control the flow of time around them, and their spellcasting ability is Wisdom (spell save DC 17). They can cast Feather fall, haste and slow at will, and Time stop once per long rest. In addition, they may be able to enact deeds of more complicated temporal control at the GM's discretion. Protective Objects. A trikarii is surrounded by a trio of floating objects of alien origin. These lunge forwards to deliver electrical shocks to creatures nearby. Each round, the objects can act in addition to the trikarii, moving to defend them from attackers. Each object can attack a different creature, or up to three can attack one creature. If multiple protective objects attack the same target, they make one attack roll and inflict damage based on the number of objects involved. ACTIONS Unarmed Strike. Melee weapon attack: +3 to hit, reach 5ft., one target. Hit: 1 bludgeoning damage. Protective Object. Melee weapon attack: +9 to hit, reach 5ft., one to three targets. Hit: 13 (3d8) lightning damage per protective object that attacks the target. Adapted from the earlier version of the Trikarii, published on 20 August 2020. Comments are closed.
