Actions

Multiattack

Voalsh makes two Tentacle attacks.

Tentacle

Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature. Hit: 21 (3d10 + 5) psychic damage. If the target is Medium or smaller, it has the grappled condition (escape DC 17) and must succeed on a DC 17 Intelligence saving throw or have the incapacitated condition until the grapple ends.

Extract Brain

Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 5 ft., one incapacitated Humanoid grappled by Voalsh. Hit: 55 (10d10) piercing damage. If this damage reduces the target to 0 hit points, Voalsh kills it by extracting and devouring its brain.

Spellcasting (Psionics)

Voalsh casts one of the following spells, requiring no spell components and using Intelligence as the spellcasting ability (spell save DC 17): • At will: detect magic, detect thoughts, mage hand (the hand is invisible) • 1/Day: plane shift (self only) • 3/Day each: clairvoyance (as an action), dispel magic

Unleash Void (Recharge 5-6)

Voalsh opens a rift into the Far Realm, centered on a point Voalsh can see within 60 feet of itself, and a tentacle lashes across creatures near the rift. Each creature other than mind flayers within 30 feet of the rift must make a DC 17 Intelligence saving throw, after which the tentacle disappears and the rift closes. On a failed save, a creature takes 18 (4d8) cold damage from the rift plus 18 (4d8) psychic damage from the tentacle and has the stunned condition for 1 minute. On a successful save, a creature takes half as much damage only. A stunned creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
