Traits and Actions

Incorporeal Movement

Trait
The wisp can move through other creatures and objects as if they were difficult terrain. It takes 5 force damage if it ends its turn inside an object.

Paralyzing Hymn

Trait
The wisp emits a discordant hymn. Each creature of the wisp's choice within 10 feet must succeed on a DC 13 Wisdom saving throw or be paralyzed until the end of the wisp's next turn. A target can repeat the save at the end of each of its turns.

Summon Spectral Cultist

Trait
The wisp magically summons one spectral cultist (using the Ghost stat block, CR 4) in an unoccupied space within 30 feet. The summoned creature obeys the wisp's commands. It disappears after 1 minute or when reduced to 0 hit points. The wisp can't use this action again until it finishes a long rest.

Touch of Silence

Action
Melee Spell Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 10 (3d6) necrotic damage plus 5 (2d4) psychic damage. If the target is concentrating, it must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or lose concentration.
