Innate Spellcasting. The wormhearted suffragan’s innate spellcasting ability is Wisdom (spell save DC 14, +6 to hit with spell attacks). It can cast the following spells, requiring no material components:

• At will: command, detect evil and good

• 4/day: inflict wounds

• 2/day each: blindness-deafness, hold person

• 1/day each: animate dead, speak with dead

Ingest Weapons. When the xanka is hit by a melee weapon and the final, adjusted attack roll is 19 or less, the weapon gains a permanent -1 penalty to damage rolls, after inflicting damage for this attack. If the penalty reaches -5, the weapon is destroyed. Even magic weapons are subject to this effect.

Magic Weapons. The xanka’s weapon attacks are magical.

Actions

Multiattack. The wormhearted suffragan can make two helminth infestation attacks, or it can cast one spell and make one helminth infestation attack.

Helminth Infestation. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (2d6) bludgeoning damage plus 10 (3d6) necrotic damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 14 Constitution saving throw or be afflicted with a helminth infestation (parasitic worms). An afflicted creature can’t regain hit points and its hit point maximum decreases by 10 (3d6) for every 24 hours that elapse. If the affliction reduces the target’s hit point maximum to 0, the victim dies. The affliction lasts until removed by any magic that cures disease.
