Actions
Multiattack. The hollow gazer makes three Pitying Gaze attacks. It may replace two attacks with a use of its Disfiguring Curse or Eldritch Beacon.
Pitying Gaze. Ranged Spell Attack: +7 to hit, range 30ft., one target. Hit 14 (3d6 + 4) psychic damage. The attack deals an additional 3 (1d6) psychic damage for each level of Madness.
Disfiguring Curse (1/day). The hollow gazer attempts to magically spread its curse to a target that it can see within 60 feet. The target must make a DC 13 Charisma save. On a failure, the target takes 17 (5d6) psychic damage and is cursed with horrible deformities. While deformed, the target gains a level of Exhaustion that does not go away when taking a long rest. The cursed creature can repeat the saving throw whenever it finishes a long rest, ending the effect on a success.
Eldritch Beacon (1/day). The hollow gazer magically creates a Medium Eldritch Beacon Token (AC/DC 12, 3 Charges) at an unoccupied space it can see within 30 feet. Each turn that the beacon is active, on initiative count 0, 12 (5d4) Cultist arrive to aid the summoner and join combat at initiative count 0. On their first turn, the Cultist use their movement and action to arrive on the battlefield in unoccupied spaces within 30 feet of the summoner. They then act normally on subsequent turns.
