Fear Aura. Any creature hostile to the star spawn that starts its turn within 20 feet of the star spawn must make a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw, unless the star spawn is incapacitated. On a failed save, the creature is frightened until the start of its next turn. If a creature's saving throw is successful, the creature is immune to the star spawns Fear Aura for the next 24 hours.
Innate Spellcasting: The star spawns spellcasting ability is Charisma (spell save DC 18). The star spawn can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components.
At will: Dissonant Whispers, Dream, Sending
3/day each: Dominate Person, Phantasmal Killer
1/day each: Gate
Overwhelming Mind. Whenever a creature attempts to read a star spawn's mind or otherwise make psychic contact, that creature must make a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw.

If a creature's saving throw is successful, the creature is immune to the star spawns Overwhelming Mind for the next 24 hours.
Actions

Tentacle. Melee Weapon Attack: +14 to hit, reach 10 ft. one target. Hit: 29 (6d6 + 8) bludgeoning damage.
A mountainous form lumbers to life, a hideous creature only accidentally humanoid in shape, its hateful face a writhing mass of tentacles.
