Actions

Multiattack: Graz'zt attacks twice with Wave of Sorrow.   Wave of Sorrow (Greatsword): Melee Weapon Attack: +13 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: (4d6 + 6) slashing damage plus 10 (3d6) acid damage.   Teleport: Graz'zt magically teleports, along with any equipment he is wearing or carrying, up to 120 feet to an unoccupied space he can see.

Legendary Actions

Graz'zt can take 3 legendary actions, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary action can be used at a time and only at the end of another creature's turn. Graz'zt regains spent legendary actions at the start of its turn   Attack: Graz'zt attacks once with Wave of Sorrow.   Dance, My Puppet: One creature charmed by Graz'zt that Graz'zt can see must use its reaction to move up to its speed as Graz'zt directs. Sow Discord. Graz'zt casts crown of madness or dissonant whispers.   Teleport: Graz'zt uses his Teleport action.

Lair Actions

On Initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), Graz'zt can take a lair action to cause one of the following effects: he can't use the same effect two rounds in a row:   Graz'zt casts the command spell on every creature of his choice in the lair. He needn't see each one, but he must be aware that an individual is in the lair to target that creature. He issues the same command to all the targets.   Smooth surfaces within the lair become as reflective as a polished mirror. Until a different lair action is used, creatures within the lair have disadvantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks made to hide

Regional Effects

The region containing Graz'zt's lair is warped by his magic, creating one or more of the following effects:   Flat surfaces within 1 mile of the lair that are made of stone or metal become highly reflective, as though polished to a shine. These surfaces become supernaturally mirrorlike.   Wild beasts within 6 miles of the lair break into frequent conflicts and coupling, mirroring the behavior that occurs during their mating seasons.   If a humanoid spends at least 1 hour within 1 mile of the lair, that creature must succeed on a DC 23 Wisdom saving throw or descend into a madness determined by the Madness of Graz'zt table. A creature that succeeds on this saving throw can't be affected by this regional effect again for 24 hours.   If Graz'zt dies, these effects fade over the course of 1d10 days.   Madness Table:   d100 Flaw (lasts until cured)   01-20 "There is nothing in the world more important than me and my desires."   21-40 "Anyone who doesn't do exactly what I say doesn't deserve to live."   41-60 "Mine is the path of redemption. Anyone who says otherwise is intentionally misleading you."   61-80 "I will not rest until I have made someone else mine, and doing so is more important to me than my own lifeā€”or the lives of others."   81-90 "My own pleasure is of paramount importance. Everything else, including social graces, is a triviality."   91-00 "Anything that can bring me happiness should be enjoyed immediately. There is no point to saving anything pleasurable for later."
