Actions

Life Drain. Melee Spell Attack: +4 ( 1d20+4 ) to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature.
Hit: 10 ( 3d6 ) necrotic damage. The target must succeed on a DC 10 Constitution saving throw or its hit point maximum is reduced by an amount equal to the damage taken. This reduction lasts until the creature finishes a long rest. The target dies if this effect reduces its hit point maximum to 0.   Forceful Slam. Melee Weapon Attack: +4 ( 1d20+4 ) to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature.
Hit: 10 ( 3d6 ) force damage.   Telekinetic Thrust.
The poltergeist targets a creature or unattended object within 30 feet of it. A creature must be Medium or smaller to be affected by this magic, and an object can weigh up to 150 pounds. If the target is a creature, the poltergeist makes a Charisma ( 1d20 ) check contested by the target's Strength check. If the poltergeist wins the contest, the poltergeist hurls the target up to 30 feet in any direction, including upward. If the target then comes into contact with a hard surface or heavy object, the target takes 1d6 damage per 10 feet moved. If the target is an object that isn't being worn or carried, the poltergeist hurls it up to 30 feet in any direction. The poltergeist can use the object as a ranged weapon, attacking one creature along the object's path (+4 to hit 1d20+4 ) and dealing 5 ( 2d4 ) bludgeoning damage on a hit.


 

A poltergeist is a different kind of specter-the confused, invisible spirit of an individu al with no sense of how he or she died. A poltergeist expresses its rage by hurling creatures and objects using the power of its shattered psyche.
