Millindemalion
Creature 13 — fey
FlankerWeaverLANDfeymental
Millindemalion are cruel fey tricksters capable of causing mayhem with their magical, mind-altering hats. Many folk tales from around the world speak of industrious fey who help struggling crafters-cobblers, milliners, tailors, and so on-during the night, creating quality wares in secret for no payment greater than a crumb of bread or a saucer of cream. These stories hold a grain of truth, as gracious fey do occasionally journey from the First World to aid a humble artisan on a whim, for bribes

Abilities
Reactive Strike — The millindemalion can use Hat Toss against the triggering creature instead of making a Strike, making a melee attack roll with a Millindemalion-hat-toss{+27} modifier to do so.
Trigger A creature within the monster's reach uses a manipulate action or a move action, makes a ranged attack, or leaves a square during a move action it's using.
Effect The monster attempts a melee Strike against the triggering creature. If the attack is a critical hit and the trigger was a manipulate action, the monster disrupts that action. This Strike doesn't count toward the monster's multiple attack penalty, and its multiple attack penalty doesn't apply to this Strike.

Unsettling Mind — Attempting to touch the frenetic mind of a millindemalion is a dangerous task. When the millindemalion succeeds at a saving throw against a mental effect, the creature originating that effect takes 4d6 mental damage.
Hat Toss (manipulate, mental, primal) — The millindemalion quickly crafts a mind-altering hat in combat and tosses it onto a target with a flick of their wrist. The millindemalion chooses one of the effects below and makes a ranged attack roll with a Millindemalion-hat-toss{+27} modifier and a range increment of 20 feet.
On a hit, the target must succeed at a DC 33 Will saving throw or experience the listed effect for 1d4+1 rounds. If the millindemalion critically succeeds at the ranged Strike, the target takes a -4 circumstance penalty on the save.
A target can only wear one millindemalion hat at a time; a new hat replaces any previous hat. The hat can't be removed before the condition ends, but when the condition ends (or on a successful save), the hat falls to pieces.
Befuddling Bowler The hat clouds the target's mind; the target becomes Stupefied 2.
Bewitching Beret The target is infatuated with their new hat and its creator, becoming Fascinated by the millindemalion and the beret.
Dazzling Deerstalker The target can barely see with the hat falling down over its eyes and gains the Dazzled condition.
Fettering Fedora The target feels a heavy weight pressing down on them from the hat and takes a -10-foot circumstance penalty to their Speeds.
Tiring Tricorne The target grows sleepy and becomes Slowed 1.
