Darkvision

A monster with darkvision can see perfectly well in areas of darkness and dim light, though such vision is in black and white only. Some forms of magical darkness, such as a 4th-level Darkness spell, block normal darkvision. A monster with Greater Darkvision, however, can see through even these forms of magical darkness.

Swarmsense (Imprecise) 30 feet

The Mosquito Witch receives constant updates from nearby insects and can use her touch as an imprecise sense at the listed range as long as there are insects around to guide her.

Wild Empathy

The Mosquito Witch can use Diplomacy to Make an Impression on and make Requests of arthropods (insects, spiders, and similar invertebrates like bloodseekers). Most arthropods have a starting attitude of indifferent to the Mosquito Witch.

At-Will Spells

The monster can cast its at-will spells any number of times without using up spell slots.

Constant Spells

A constant spell affects the monster without the monster needing to cast it, and its duration is unlimited. If a constant spell gets counteracted, the monster can reactivate it by spending the normal spellcasting actions the spell requires.

Haunting Gaze (aura, emotion, enchantment, fear, mental, visual)

30-foot emanation Aura


When a creature ends its turn in the emanation, it must attempt a DC 29 will save. If the creature fails, it becomes Frightened 1. If it's already frightened, its frightened value instead increases by 1 (maximum Frightened 3) and doesn't decrease by 1 at the end of the creature's next turn. If a creature's frightened value is 3 or higher before failing its save, the creature is also Fleeing for 1 round.

Dipteric Dread (poison)

Saving Throw DC 29 fortitude

Maximum Duration 6 rounds

Stage 1 2d6 piercing and 2d6 poison (1 round)

Stage 2 2d6 piercing and 3d6 poison (1 round)

Stage 3 2d6 piercing and 5d6 poison

Terror From Within

The Mosquito Witch's powers feed on fear. When taking bleed or piercing damage dealt by the Mosquito Witch's bleed and dipteric dread, a creature takes additional damage equal to twice the creature's frightened value.

Ritual

5th Level: Mosquito Blight


The Mosquito Witch is a humanoid figure with unpleasant, waxy skin. She always seems to have her head bowed and her shoulders hunched, a mane of unkempt black hair hiding all of her face save for a pair of unblinking red eyes and a long, sharp tongue that's as stiff and pointed as a proboscis. Fleshy, ribbed mosquito wings protrude from her back. She has six handless arms that taper into malformed points, which she keeps clutched to her chest like the legs of an insect's pupae. Her spindly legs also taper into points; when bloated from feeding, she must run on all eight limbs, which leave small holes in the ground as tracks.

The Legion Leech

Mosquitoes are parasites. Like her namesake, the Mosquito Witch wanders the world before alighting in an unguarded area to drain it of life and happiness. Once sated, she withdraws to digest her stolen vitality.

This Legion Leech is associated with inexplicable wasting sicknesses, bloodseekers bold enough to carry off lambs, and ravenous mosquito swarms that cover and drain a bull dead in moments. Whereas other aspects are occasionally helpful or curious, the Legion Leech cares for little beyond snuffing out life.
