Lair Actions

On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), Grossmann can take a lair action to cause one of the following effects; he cannot use the same effect two rounds in a row

Dead Roots: Blackened, mutated roots erupt from the ground in a 20-foot radius centered on a point Grossmann can see within 90 feet. That area becomes difficult terrain. Any creature in that area must succeed on a DC 18 Dexterity saving throw or be knocked Prone.

-Paranoia's Grip: One creature of Grossmann's choice within 60 feet must make a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, the creature is paralyzed by overwhelming, suffocating hallucinations of their past sins. This paralysis lasts for 1 round, ending on initiative count 20 of the next round.
