Actions
Multiattack
The arcanaloth makes three Fiendish Burst attacks. It can replace one attack with a Banishing Claw attack.
Fiendish Burst
Melee or Ranged Attack +9, reach 5 ft. or range 120 ft. 31 () 💀 Necrotic damage.
Banishing Claw (Requires Soul Tome)
Melee Attack +9, reach 5 ft. 10 () 🗡️ Slashing damage plus 19 () 🧠 Psychic damage. If the target is a creature, it is subjected to the following effect. CHA Save DC 17.
Failure: The target is trapped in a demiplane inside the Soul Tome. While trapped there, the target has the condition. At the end of each of its turns, the target repeats the save, escaping the tome on a success. When the target escapes, it appears in the space it left or, if that space is occupied, the nearest unoccupied space.
If the target fails three of these saves while in the demiplane, it becomes bound to the tome and can escape only if the tome is reduced to 0 Hit Points.
