Natural 5, 10, 15 or 20: One enemy may make a saving throw against any condition affecting it.
Special: Deafened is not a condition defined by the game and will need to be adjudicated by the GM. Suggested mechanical consequences may include being unable to receive the benefits of bardic music and/or taking a -4 to ‘perception’ checks.
Errant Arcana: Any time a PC caster rolls a 5 or less on an attack spell against a hectoralle, the spell instead targets another PC or PC ally. Reroll the attack.
Roiling Resistance: A hectoralle resists both psychic damage (14+) and magic at large (8+).
Nastier Specials
Rol-licking Good Time: The hectoralle can instead deal 10 damage with Tongue Lashing to grab the target.
Harmonious Discord: A confused enemy gains a +2 on its attack rolls.
Ruined Escalation: An enemy suffering a penalty to MD does not add the escalation die to its attacks.
