Lord Zombie

If the lord fails a saving throw, it can choose to succeed instead.

3/DAY

Any non-undead creature that starts its turn within 30 feet of the lord must succeed on a DC 16 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned until the start of the creature's next turn.

On a successful saving throw, the creature is immune to the lord's Stench for 24 hours.

If damage reduces the lord to 0 hp, it must make a Constitution saving throw with a DC of 5 + the damage taken, unless the damage is radiant or from a critical hit. On a success, the lord drops to 1 hp instead.

The lord zombie makes two slam attacks. It can use its Life Drain in place of one slam attack.

Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d8 + 3) bludgeoning damage.
