Traits

Boon of Immortality. The Nighshade Hag is immune to any effect that would age her, and she can’t die from old age. To permanently kill the hag she has to be burned, the ashes mixed with salt and buried in an iron box. Otherwise she will rise again after a year.

 

Amnesia. The hag can peer into a creatures eyes and make it forget who they are and what they're doing for 1d4 rounds. They make a Wisdom Saving Throw DC14 at the start of their turn to avoid this effect.

  Key of Time. The hag's key speeds up when she's damaged and winds down when she hasn't been hit in a turn. When it speeds up she has access to Chronomancy spells, her AC increases to 18 and she gets an extra Attack. A creature within 5 ft. of the hag can make an Athletics/Acrobatics Check DC17 to turn the key to slow it down.
