Displacer beast

Displacer Beasts were large monstrous predators native to the Feywild.

Descriptions
Resembling large sleek cats covered in blue-black fur, these monsters had six legs and the two tentacles sprouting from their shoulders, both of which ending in pads tipped with spiky barbs. A displacer beast had red eyes, whose malevolent glow persisted even in death.

Abilities
Able to magically displace light, these creatures could project illusory versions of themselves several feet away from their actual location, thus granting themselves a natural advantage against those that would seek to harm them. Though if successfully hit their ability to manifest these illusions would be temporarily cut off.

History
 During the Harvest Close Festival in Zadash, the Stubborn Stock fought and successfully defeated a pair of displacer beasts in their second round of the Victory Pit tournament.

 The Mighty Nein were surrounded by three displacer beasts on Rumblecusp. Before they could attack, two were-bear villagers appeared, killing one and frightening off the others.
