> ***Detect Sentience.*** The intellect devourer can sense the presence and location of any creature within 300 feet of it that has an Intelligence of 3 or higher, regardless of interposing barriers, unless the creature is protected by a mind blank spell.
>
> ***Pack Tactics.*** The intellect devourer has advantage on an Intelligence check against a creature if at least one of the intellect devourer's allies is within 5 feet of the creature and the ally isn't incapacitated.
>
>\columnbreak
>
> ***Creature Climber.*** The intellect devourer can can occupy another creature's space and vice versa and can climb on top of creatures, without needing to make an ability check.
>
> ### Actions
> ***Multiattack.*** The intellect devourer makes one attack with its claws and uses Devour Intellect.
>
> ***Claws.*** Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 0 ft., one target within the intellect devourer's space. Hit: 7 (2d4 + 2) slashing damage.
>
> ***Devour Intellect.*** The intellect devourer targets one creature it can see in its space that has a brain. The target must succeed on a DC 14 Intelligence saving throw against this magic or take 9 (2d8) psychic damage and have its intellect drained. While it has its intellect drained, it has disadvantage on all Intelligence checks and saving throws until it completes a long rest. 
>
> If a creature fails this saving throw for a second time before completing a long rest, its Intelligence drops to 0 and it's stunned until it regains at least one point of Intelligence, or finishes a long rest.
>
> ***Body Thief.*** The intellect devourer initiates an Intelligence contest with an incapacitated humanoid within 5 feet of it that isn't protected by protection from evil and good. If it wins the contest, the intellect devourer magically consumes the target's brain, teleports into the target's skull, and takes control of the target's body. While inside a creature, the intellect devourer has total cover against attacks and other effects originating outside its host. The intellect devourer retains its Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma scores, as well as its understanding of Deep Speech, its telepathy, and its traits. It otherwise adopts the target's statistics. It knows everything the creature knew, including spells and languages.
If the host body dies, the intellect devourer must leave it. A protection from evil and good spell cast on the body drives the intellect devourer out. The intellect devourer is also forced out if the target regains its devoured brain by means of a wish. By spending 5 feet of its movement, the intellect devourer can voluntarily leave the body, teleporting to the nearest unoccupied space within 5 feet of it. The body then dies, unless its brain is restored within 1 round.

> #### Lair Actions
> On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), the Bedrock Bosun takes a lair action to cause one of the following magical effects:
> 
> - A whirlpool with a 40-foot radius appears centered on one point within the lair. All creatures in the radius must succeed on a Strength saving throw, or be pulled 20 feet closer towards its center.
> - The Bosun summons 1d4 of his fallen crewmates, who use the game statistics of a shadow, with a change of having 30 ft. swim speed. These crewmates will vanish on the initiative count of 20 on the next round.
> - The sunken ship of Bedrock Bosun moves 100 feet in one direction. Any creature that's hit by the ship must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw, taking 5d6 bludgeoning damage and getting stunned on a failure.
>
> #### Regional Effects
> The region containing a legendary Bedrock Bosun's lair is warped by his magic, which creates one or more of the following effects:
> 
> - The creaking sounds produced by ships are unusually silent within 10 miles of the lair.
> - Any creature that gets drunk within 10 miles of the lair will feel overwhelming guilt.
> - The clouds within 5 miles of the lair take form of 
>
> \columnbreak
>
> straight lines, resembling ship sails and ropes.
> - If a ship resides within 5 miles of the lair for more than 8 hours, there will be at least one sailor on the ship that will seek a way to leave it at all times, even if it costs them their life. When they leave it, another is overcome with these compulsions.
>
> If the Bosun dies, the clouds will take a regular form over 1d4 days, and all other effects cease within a day.
>
> ##### "Poor Unfortunate Sinner."
> "Drowned like all of my visitors, and begging for another chance? Let's strike a deal. I'll bring you back to life, but you shall die a terrible irreversible death if you ever..."
>
> | 1d6 | Bargain |
> |:---:|:---|
> | 1 | "... fall asleep outside of a lifeboat, and speak the same reason for why twice." |
> | 2 | "... fail to drown a sentient creature for 7 days in a row." |
> | 3 | "... pour less than half of whatever alcohol you're about to drink into the sea." |
> | 4 | "... stay away from the sea for more than 1 day." |
> | 5 | "... tie any knot loose, so you better be careful who you tie the knot with." |
> | 6 | "... sleep on a full moon." |

The target dies if this reduces its Strength to 0. Otherwise, the reduction lasts until the target finishes a short or long rest.
>
> If a non-evil humanoid dies from this attack, a new shadow rises from the corpse 1 hour later.
>
> ***Frightful Presence.*** Each creature of the Bedrock Bosun's choice that is within 120 feet of the Bosun and aware of him must succeed on a DC 26 Wisdom saving throw or become frightened for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. If a creature's saving throw is successful or the effect ends for it, the creature is immune to the Bedrock Bosun's Frightful Presence for the next 24 hours.
>
> ***Kraken's Maw (Recharge 5-6).*** The Bedrock Bosun summons the spirit of that which made him centered on a point within 60 feet of him that he can see.

All creatures within the line are moved up to 30 feet in the same direction. If a creature moved this way hits any number of obstacles, it takes 3d6 bludgeoning damage.
