UVUUDAUM
UVUUDAUM
UVUUDAUM
A horse sized creature comes skittering towards you. Its six “legs” that all appear to
be humanoid arms attached to a long trunk. Its upper body has another set of
humanoid arms in a more typical orientation, however, where the creature’s head
should be is instead a massive razor sharp spike. Though its movement is erratic,
the aberrant thing posies itself with an imperious posture.
Lords of Madness. The uvuudaum hail from one of the most remote
corners of the multiverse. Tucked away in a forgotten corner of The Far Realm, they
can be found in a dark corner that even the native denizens of their twisted plane
would consider terrifyingly remote. They rule a kingdom outside of time, where
unspeakable things whisper profound truths to those that dare listen. Uvuudaums
partake in, and are part of, this maddening cacophony. They delight in revealing, by
their mere presence, this unspoken part of reality in more structured planes of
existence. To an uvuudaum, peeling back the layers of the multiverse to reveal what
horrors await in the far realm is a precious gift, one which they happily spread
wherever they go.
Horrid Implication. Nobody knows the true origin of the uvuudaum. Like
many aberrations from The Far Realm it may be an exercise in futility to try and
uncover their origin, but that doesn’t stop philosophers and sages from trying. Due to
their twisted, yet oddly familiar bodies, some believe that uvuudaum are actually
humanoids that became lost in The Far Realm, and after countless aeons wandering
the chaos they themselves were slowly warped into the uvuudaum species. Others
believe their form is merely what the creatures look like when they manifest on other
planes, and that the uvuudaum have no true physical form on their home plane.
Whatever the truth may be, the uvuudaum are feared by all anytime they appear.

Traits
Confusion Aura.
Anytime a creature starts its turn within 30 feet of the uvuudaum it must succeed on a DC 24
Wisdom Saving Throw or become confused for 1d4 rounds. It can attempt another saving
throw at the end of its confusion, ending the condition on a success or becoming confused for
another 1d4 rounds on a failure. A creature that succeeds on its saving throw to resist
confusion is immune to the uvuudaum’s confusion aura for 24 hours. While confused the
creature can’t take reactions and must roll a d10 at the start of each of its turns to determine
its behaviour for that turn using the table below.
Actions
Head Spike.
Melee Weapon Attack: +18 to hit, reach 15 ft., one creature.
Hit: 65 (10d10 + 10) piercing damage and if the target is alive it must succeed on a DC 24
Wisdom Saving Throw or have its Wisdom score drained by 2d4. This reduction in Wisdom
is permanent. A creature reduced to 0 Wisdom in this way goes mad and becomes an NPC
under the DM’s control that is hostile towards all other creatures.
Innate Spellcasting.
The monster’s innate spellcasting ability is Charisma (spell save DC 24, +14 to hit with
spell attacks). It can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components:
• At will: confusion, dimension door, dispel magic (5th level), invisibility, lightning bolt,
mage armor, magic missile, shield, web
• 3/day each: chain lightning, cone of cold, disintegrate, dominate person, haste, plane
shift, scrying, teleport, wall of force
• 1/day each: time stop
