A Funeral Butterfly is a beautiful sight to see, with what seems to be six pure white wings bordered in black hiding a tiny black body within them. ***Graveyard Home.*** Funeral Butterflies make their home in graveyards, and are typically benign creatures. They feed off the emotional sadness of those who visit, fluttering around them but not attacking. ***Death Robbers.*** Funeral Butterflies, when angered by someone disturbing their nest or someone trying to attack them, will attack using their own memories, having known the sadness and anger of many who visit the graveyards. Upon knocking someone unconscious, they draw from their victim every last memory of death. There are stories of people who purposely aggravated Funeral Butterflies to forget a death that they cannot bear to remember. This memory can be restored by a Greater Restoration spell. ___ > ## Funeral Butterfly >*Tiny beast, neutral* > ___ > - **Armor Class** 14 > - **Hit Points** 8 > - **Speed** 5 ft., fly 20 ft. >___ >|STR|DEX|CON|INT|WIS|CHA| >|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:| >|1 (-5)|15 (+2)|4 (-3)|12 (+1)|13 (+1)|7 (-2)| >___ > - **Damage Vulnerabilities** Fire > - **Damage Immunities** Necrotic > - **Condition Immunities** Grappled, Prone, Restrained > - **Senses** Passive perception 11 > - **Languages** - > - **Challenge** 1/4 (50 XP) > ___ > > ***Swarm.*** A Funeral Butterfly can occupy the same space as another Funeral Butterfly, and move through the space of any small or larger creature, treating the space as difficult terrain. > > ### Actions > > ***Erase.*** *Melee Weapon Attack:* +3 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. *Hit:* 2 (1d4) psychic damage.
