Obsidian Tribunal Inquisitor

The Obsidian Tribunal Inquisitor was created to judge dangerous spellcasters who attempted to control the leyline beneath the tower. Over centuries, its mandate expanded. It now considers unauthorized movement, unsanctioned teleportation, and damage to tower property to be crimes worthy of magical confinement. The inquisitor believes the tower is a living legal instrument and that every creature inside it has already agreed to its jurisdiction by entering.

Tribunal Concentration. The inquisitor can maintain concentration on one spell while concentrating on Wall of Force. When it begins concentrating on a second spell, the first spell ends as normal.

Issue Restraint. The inquisitor targets one creature it can see within 90 feet. The target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or become restrained by spectral obsidian bands for 1 minute. A restrained creature can repeat the save at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on a success. The effect ends early if the inquisitor becomes incapacitated.
Tribunal Step. The inquisitor teleports to an unoccupied space it can see within 60 feet. Each creature within 5 feet of the space it leaves or enters must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or take 10 () force damage and be pushed 10 feet.
Counterspell. When a creature the inquisitor can see within 60 feet casts a spell, the inquisitor casts Counterspell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher. If the spell is cast at 4th level or higher, the inquisitor makes an Intelligence check with a bonus against plus the spell's level. On a success, the spell fails and has no effect.
Measured Relocation. The inquisitor moves up to half its speed without provoking opportunity attacks.
Minor Verdict. The inquisitor makes one Obsidian Verdict attack.
