Traits

  • Dust Cloud. When the Feather Duster Maid takes damage, it releases a cloud of choking dust in a 5-foot radius. Creatures in the area must succeed on a DC 12 Constitution saving throw or be blinded until the end of their next turn.
  • Obsequious Minion. 1d6 Feather Duster Maids accompany each Candle Fiend. While within 20 feet of a Candle Fiend, the Feather Duster Maid has advantage on attack rolls.

Actions

  • Slap Attack. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (2d4 + 3) bludgeoning damage.
  • Flurry of Dust (Recharge 5–6). The Feather Duster Maid whirls itself rapidly, releasing a blinding 15-foot cone of dust. Each creature in the cone must make a DC 13 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, they take 9 (2d8) bludgeoning damage and are blinded until the start of their next turn.

Description:
Animated in frilly French maid uniforms (faded and tattered, stitched into their feathered shafts), these dusters scuttle across the mansion’s halls, clacking on their broomstick handles like stilt legs. They titter with squeaky laughter as they beat adventurers about the head with a storm of dust, choking them and clouding the battlefield.
