Fantasmal Screech (1/day). The spiritual owlbear releases a deafening screech. This screech has no effect on constructs and undead. All other creatures within 30 feet of her that can hear her must make a DC 14 Constitution saving throw. On a failure, a creature drops to 0 hit points. On a success, a creature takes 10 (3d6) psychic damage.
Reactions

Deathly Gaze (Costs 2 Actions). The spiritual owlbear stares at a target within 60ft. The target must succeed on a DC 14 Wisdom saving throw against this magic or become frightened for 1 minute.
