Euphoric Cortex Aberration - AI-generated fantasy Monster

Euphoric Cortex Aberration

Urban psionicists whisper that these creatures are not born but assembled, the result of some forgotten experiment that taught flesh how to drink thought and thought how to become hunger. Their most feared trait is not merely their power but the way that power intensifies as they near death. A wounded specimen becomes a psychic furnace, and that furnace leaves behind a Psionic Cortex prized by black-market arcanists, battleminds, and mindsmiths. Extract it too late and the charge is gone. Extract it while the creature still lives, and the cortex remains flooded with euphoric resonance, making it a far stronger catalyst for future psionic augmentation.

Urban Synapse Drift. The aberration can breathe, see, and speak in any environment where mental activity exists, and it ignores difficult terrain created by crowds, rubble, or cluttered urban debris.
Iron Mind. The aberration has advantage on saving throws against being charmed, frightened, or stunned.
Near-Death Resonance. If the aberration starts its turn below half its hit points, its psionic features intensify. Its psychic damage increases by , and the save DC of its psionic abilities increases by 1 until the start of its next turn. Below 50 hit points, this bonus increases to 2 instead of 1.
Mind Rend. Melee Spell Attack: to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 31 () psychic damage, and the target must succeed on a Intelligence saving throw or have disadvantage on the next attack roll or saving throw it makes before the end of its next turn.
Euphoria Lance. Ranged Psionic Attack: to hit, range 120 ft., one target. Hit: 27 () psychic damage, and the target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be stunned until the end of its next turn.
Euphoric Pulse. The cortex-knot emits a wave of blissful static in a 30-foot radius. Each enemy of the aberration in the area must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, a creature takes 35 () psychic damage and is charmed until the end of its next turn. While charmed this way, the creature can only move toward the aberration or take the Dodge action. On a success, the creature takes half damage and isn't charmed. A creature that succeeds on this save is immune to this aberration's Euphoric Pulse for 24 hours.
Thought Snare. The aberration targets one creature it can see within 60 feet that has a psionic feature, spellcasting, or another source of mental power. The target must succeed on a Intelligence saving throw or have its thoughts braided open until the end of its next turn. Until then, the target cannot take reactions, has disadvantage on concentration checks, and the aberration knows whether the target has resistance or immunity to psychic damage.
Resonant Rebound. When a creature the aberration can see within 60 feet succeeds on a saving throw against one of its psychic effects, the aberration inflicts a sharp empathy spike. The creature takes 10 () psychic damage.
Slip Through Minds. The aberration moves up to half its speed without provoking opportunity attacks.
Static Intrusion (Costs 2 Actions). One creature the aberration can see within 60 feet must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or take 13 () psychic damage and cannot take reactions until the start of its next turn.
Cerebral Feedback (Costs 3 Actions). The aberration unleashes a concentrated feedback surge. Each enemy within 20 feet must make a Intelligence saving throw, taking 27 () psychic damage on a failure, or half as much on a success. A creature that fails also has disadvantage on Concentration checks until the end of its next turn.
