Basan

In the depths of shadowed forests and forgotten ruins, the Basan lurks, a creature of eerie wonders and chilling dread. Its diminutive form, reminiscent of a large chicken, belies the malevolent intelligence burning within its fiery eyes. The Basan’s iridescent feathers shimmer in the moonlight, casting an otherworldly glow as it moves with an unsettling grace.

Its most unnerving feature is the gaping maw from which it breathes forth a cold ghost-fire, a spectral flame that freezes all it touches, leaving behind a trail of frost in its wake. Despite its diminutive size, the Basan commands fear and respect, its presence heralded by the crackling of ethereal flames and the icy chill of the grave.

Actions

Ghost-Fire Breath

The Basan exhales a 15-foot cone of cold ghost-fire. Each creature in that area must make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw, taking 14 (4d6) cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Teleport

The Basan magically teleports up to 30 feet to an unoccupied space it can see.
