Limited Magic Immunity. The rakshasa can’t be affected or detected by spells of 6th level or lower unless it wishes to be, and has advantage on saves against all other spells and magical effects.
Innate Spellcasting. The rakshasa’s innate spellcasting ability is Charisma. It can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components: at will: detect thoughts, disguise self, mage hand, minor illusion; 1/day each: fly, invisibility, major image, plane shift, true seeing.
Multiattack. The rakshasa makes two claw attacks.
Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 15 (2d10+4) slashing damage, and the wound magically festers if the target was reduced below half its hit point maximum.
How hard a fight? Against a party of four, a single rakshasa is deadly at levels 1–9, hard at levels 10–11, medium at levels 12–14 and easy at levels 15–19, and barely a challenge from level 20. Add allies or more foes in the encounter generator.
Where you'll find it: towns and cities and forests.
