Magical Resistance. The Gateway Protector has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.
Death Burst. When the Gateway Protector is reduced to 0 hit points, it explodes into a surge of misty magic. Each creature within 10 ft. must make a DC 13 DEX saving throw, taking 10 (3d6) force damage on a failed save, or half as much on a success. The mists begin enveloping the area.
Actions
Multiattack. The Gateway Protector makes two Runed Slam attacks.
Runed Slam. Melee weapon attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 12 (2d8+3) 2d8+3 bludgeoning damage.
Runed Flair (Recharge 5-6). The Gateway Protector releases a blast of arcane energy. All creatures within 20 feet must make a DC 13 DEX saving throw, taking 14(4d6) radiant damage on a failed save, or half as much on a success.
Reactions
Reactive Defense. When the Gateway Protector is hit by a melee attack, it can use its reaction to release a pulse of energy. The attacker must make a DC 13 STR saving throw or be pushed 10 ft. away, its hit causing no damage to the Gateway Protector.
The Gateway Protector is a towering, shadowy sentinel conjured from the obelisk itself. Its body is a mass of shifting darkness and jagged obsidian, its eyes glowing with an unholy light. A talisman of dark silver, pulsing with ancient power, is visible within its chest, linking it to the cursed land of Mordent. As it moves, the very air seems to tremble, and the whispers of lost souls echo around it, heralding its relentless fury.
