Action
Cyclonic Fury (Recharge 5-6)
The neak ta magically gathers a mass of debris and loose objects and sets it rapidly swirling in a 20-foot radius around itself. A creature that ends its turn in the area or enters the area for the first time on a turn must make a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw, taking 28 (8d6) bludgeoning damage and is blinded until the end of its next turn on a failed save, or half as much damage and isn't blinded on a successful one. The cyclonic fury lasts for as long as the neak ta maintains concentration (as if concentrating on a spell), for up to 1 minute.
Action

Neak ta are a type of kami (nature spirit) that dwell in urban areas, particularly smaller settlements based around one particular common building. Neak ta speak telepathically, but can't make any audible noises, as they lack a mouth. They display their emotions on the billboard-like sign that makes up their face; their emotion appearing as cartoon-like images on the sign. A neak ta is stands 3 feet tall, and weighs around 60 pounds.
Social Anchors. Neak ta bond with community buildings, preferring the jovial nature of an inn or tavern. Multiple neak ta can inhabit a larger edifice, sometimes taking over individual floors of a structure. These larger conglomerations of kami happily refer to themselves as 'parties' and do their best to entice visitors to their particular ward. Communities typically develop around the ward of a neak ta, the kami becoming something of an anchor for the development of a settlement.
Neak ta do this unintentionally, simply finding a communal location that appeals to them, and settling into it as a ward, not considering the long-term ramifications for a growing village.
Communal Guardians. The presence of notable oni or other evil creatures is enough to keep a neak ta guarding its ward indefinitely. The tiny creature's love of the people it protects ensure that it will not leave them if such evils are nearby. Conversely, oni see the ward of neak ta's as sites of powerful significance, to be defiled as a means of proving their superiority. Yeren oni are the natural enemies of small community (village-sized or smaller) dwelling neak ta.
