Possessed

Fear demon inside a mortal body. Unstable in this world. Sometimes seen sharing their habitat with lemures. A horror.

The possessed can see through all mirrors it has seen since the last moon, and it regenerates 1D6 Hit Points per turn. As long as it is possessing a body, the possessing demon cannot die. It has the following weaknesses that allow it to die:
- being doused with holy water;
- being forced to look at its own reflection;
- being screamed by at least 3 ajacent people.
Attacks (2/round)
Reckless Stab The possessed makes a melee attack with advantage (1D8). The target has advantage attacking the possessed until its next turn.
Mind Assault A target the possessed can see must save or have its next turn controlled by the possessed. If a target is frightened by the possessed, it has disadvantage on its save. A target who is controled two turns in a row becomes the possessed and the previous body collapses dying.
