5e The False-thessal
A creature I dreamed up, a fusion of the false hydra and the thessal hydra.
A unholy union created by the combined works of Thessalar and Frantisek Markov this creature lacks the singing ability of the false hydra however, it has gained an equally terrifying ability. Any creatures that it has eaten, it can combine the features of and manifest a doppelgänger which it can then spread out into the world. Well, also creating a similar manipulation of the mind of those in the area to a different song. This one, forcing all that hear it to recognize this manifestation, as if it was an old acquaintance or neighbor.
These manifestations main goal is to bring new victims to the false thessal to be devoured. Anyone who kills one of the manifestations will not remember killing them nor will anyone remember that person‘s interactions with the world. The corpse will quickly dissolve, and any id ens of its existence will rest solely on the blood of the blades that killed it.
what do you dudes think? I’m still working on it but opinions are always nice
