Abilities & Attacks
Telepathy 100 feet (aura, magical, mental). A monster with telepathy can communicate mentally with any creatures within the listed radius, as long as they share a language. This doesn't give any special access to their thoughts, and communicates no more information than normal speech would. Archon's Protection (reaction). Trigger An enemy damages the archon's ally and both are within 15 feet of the archon. Effect The ally gains resistance 15 to all damage against the triggering damage, and the archon can make a Strike against the enemy. Censorious Lash (divine, incapacitation, mental). When the exscinder hits a creature with a binding chains Strike, that creature must attempt a DC 30 Will save. On a failure, it's controlled by the exscinder for its first action on its next turn (or controlled for its entire next turn on a critical failure). Change Size (1 action) (concentrate, divine, polymorph). The exscinder changes size to their choice of Huge, Large, Medium, or Small. Temper thy Words (1 action) (auditory, concentrate, divine). The exscinder chooses one written text within 120 feet. They don't need to be able to observe the text, but they can't target one that's deliberately Concealed. The exscinder censors the text, modifying it to their wishes. The text can't be referenced, making it useless for functions like Casting a Spell from a scroll, preparing spells from a spellbook, or consulting a scholarly journal. If the text is attended, the creature possessing it can attempt a DC 33 Will save; an unattended text automatically gets a critical failure.
