  • Your AC increases by 2.
  • You count as one size category larger when determining your carrying capacity.
  • Your Strength score increases to 20. This property has no effect if your Strength is equal to or greater than 20.
  • You have advantage on Strength checks and saving throws .
  • You can use a bonus action and choose a creature that can see you, forcing it to make a Wisdom saving throw (DC 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier) or become frightened for 1 minute. Once you have used this property a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, you cannot do so again until you finish a long rest.
  • Your unarmed strikes and weapon attacks deal an extra 1d6 necrotic damage.
  • Celestials, elementals, fey, and creatures with the Good alignment trait have disadvantage on attack rolls made against you.
