Reflective Scales. The Mirrorcoil Serpent's scales shimmer with a thousand tiny mirrors that seem to reflect possible deaths. Whenever it deals damage with its Bite or Tail, the target must succeed on a DC 12 Wisdom saving throw or take 1d6 psychic damage and become frightened for 1 round. A successful save halves the psychic damage and prevents the frightened condition.

Actions

Multiattack. The Mirrorcoil Serpent makes two attacks: one Bite and one Tail.

Bite. Melee weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 10 (2d6+3) piercing damage.

Tail. Melee weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 12 (2d8+3) bludgeoning damage. If the target is Medium or smaller, it must succeed on a DC 14 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone.

Glimpse of Death. The scales flash with mirrored futures. Each creature within 5 feet must succeed on a DC 12 Wisdom saving throw or take 1d6 psychic damage and be frightened for 1 round. On a successful save, the creature takes half damage and is not frightened.

Lore & Description

Appearance

A sinuous serpent of jade-green with countless shimmering scales, each one a minute mirror shard. The scales catch light and fracture it into fleeting reflections, as if every movement is bending toward an unseen cardinal fate. Its eyes are quicksilver, ever watchful for the deaths it can glimpse in others.

Behavior & Origins

Mirrorcoil Serpents dwell in shadowed wetlands and echoing ruins where mirrors or still pools lie. They feed on fear and the tremors of fate they reveal in their glimmering scales, twisting decisions and drawing foes toward ruin as they hunt through the reflections of possible deaths.
