Binding

The flood responds to vows spoken under duress. As a free action, the creature can cast *call* (DC 16) once per round to anchor its waters to a specific location, granting advantage on attacks against creatures within 60 feet.

Strike

The flood surges forward in a devastating wave. Action: 2 actions. Melee attack against a target within 40 ft deals 28 (2d10+13) bludgeoning damage. Ranged attack (using the same action pool) allows the creature to hurl torrentous water at targets up to 80 ft away, dealing 22 (2d8+9) slashing damage. The attacker gains a +2 bonus to hit when striking a creature that has failed a will save.

Tactics

The Broken Oath Flood moves with purpose, seeking out those who have broken oaths. It prefers to anchor itself near recent sites of betrayal before unleashing its Strike. When reduced to half health, it becomes more erratic, moving faster but losing some control over its flow.
