Vaal

Vaal has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on smell.

Vaal's innate spellcasting ability is Charisma. It can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components:

• At will: detect magic, fog cloud, light
• 3/day each: feather fall, fly, misty step, telekinesis
• 1/day each: control weather, gaseous form

Vaal makes two morningstar attacks.

Melee Weapon Attack: +12 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 21 (3d8 + 8) piercing damage.

Ranged Weapon Attack: +12 to hit, range 60/240 ft., one target. Hit: 30 (4d10 + 8) bludgeoning damage.

Some adult cloud giants have the magical ability to create barriers of gale-force wind around themselves that can deflect incoming missiles. Others like to fling enemies through the air. These abilities are represented by the following action options.

Fling: Vaal tries to throw a Small or Medium creature within 10 feet of it. The target must succeed on a DC 20 Dexterity saving throw or be hurled up to 60 feet horizontally in a direction of Vaal's choice and land prone, taking 4 (1d8) bludgeoning damage for every 10 feet it was thrown.

Wind Aura: A magical aura of wind surrounds Vaal. The aura is a 10-foot-radius sphere that lasts as long as Vaal maintains concentration on it (as if concentrating on a spell). While the aura is in effect, Vaal gains a +2 bonus to its AC against ranged weapon attacks, and all open flames within the aura are extinguished unless they are magical.
