The short story that inspired my monster….

Weaver in the Darkness (Solitary, Small, Magical, Stealthy, Planar, Amorphous)

Consume life (d12 damage) 15 HP

Close, Near

Special Qualities: Amorphous, Undead, Harmed only by magic or magic weapons

“A coldly shining, hueless globe, round as a puffball and large as a human head, had risen from the fissure and was hovering above it like a mimic moon. The thing oscillated with a slight but ceaseless vibratory motion. From it, as if caused by this vibration, the heavy humming poured, and the light fell in ever-trembling waves.It seemed that the light and sound were woven upon the senses… like some Lethean spell.” -Clark Ashton Smith

Custom Move: When you first gaze upon the Weaver, ROLL+INT.

@On a 10+, you ignore its enthralling enchantment!

@On a 7-9,: You take -1 ongoing while distracted by its siren lights and song.

@On a 6, you’re transformed into a living immobile statue as long as the Weaver is present.

Instinct: Drain Life

Enthrall Victims

Charm bystanders

Weaves illusions

Consume corpses

Haunts tombs and crypts

Based on Clark Ashton Smith’s “Weaver in the Vault”
