Fortuitous Curse. When Ganesha rolls a 1 on an attack roll, ability check, or saving throw, it can reroll the die. It must use the new result, even if it is a 1. Cursed Armor.

These damage resistances may be changed on a long rest or once per round as a bonus action or reaction to itself using Cursed Armor. While its cursed armor is active, it regains 16 temporary hit points at the beginning of your turns. These temporary hit points cannot go above the maximum amount of armor it can have. Cursed Strikes. Before making an unarmed strike, Trunk, Tusks, or Stomp attack, Ganesha may spend up to 8 Cursed Energy, adding 2d8 Necrotic damage to its damage. This may also be used as a response to the curse hitting a Nat 20. This energy persists until Ganesha hits a target or 1 minute passes. Ganesha’s cursed strikes also deal an additional 10 damage.

Additionally, Ganesha can spend up to 9 cursed energy whenever it's using a cursed energy feature to increase its DC by the amount spent. Flawless Fundamentals.

This cursed energy reduction does not apply for the purposes of the Flawless Fundamentals feat. Divine Cursed Energy Output. As apart of any feature that uses cursed energy, Ganesha can expend 8 cursed energy to drastically alter its functions as part of the same action it uses the feature with. If the feature was a Cursed Energy Attack roll, the target of its attack or attack rolls has their AC treated as if it had been reduced by 5. If the feature was a Cursed Energy save, Ganesha may change the saving throw to another depending on its original save. The changes are the following below:

Obstacle Removal (1+ Cursed Energy) As an action, Ganesha is able to remove an object that is standing in its way. The cost of this feature depends on the size of what Ganesha is attempting to remove. The costs can be found in the following table:
Whenever Ganesha removes an object, it is teleported out of its way. When you use this feature to remove a structure or object, you must choose a point within 600 feet of where it originally was located to reappear. In order to remove large structures, Ganesha must use an action for every turn in a minute. It may spend additional actions each turn to lower the amount of time needed, with every action spent reducing the time by 6 seconds or 1 round. If Ganesha completes the full minute of actions, then it can spend the corresponding cursed energy to remove the structure:
Ganesha must maintain concentration during the minute it is using this feature. Also, when removing a structure, it is teleported in the same way as objects detailed above. Ganesha is also able to spend more time in order to lower the amount of cursed energy needed. It may spend an additional minute worth of actions when using this feature. For every extra minute added the cost is reduced by 5 cursed energy. It must also maintain concentration during these extra minutes. Creature Removal (1+ Cursed Energy) As an action, Ganesha can force up to 9 creatures within a 400 foot radius of itself to make a DC 27 Charisma saving throw. On a failure, each creature is removed and teleported 600 feet away. On a success, they are not affected. The cursed energy cost can be found below:
Technique Removal (12 Cursed Energy) As a full turn action, Ganesha may attempt to entangle concepts into a creature’s technique. One creature within a 400 foot radius of its choice, must make a DC 27 Charisma saving throw. On a failure, the target’s innate technique is removed for 2 minute. On a success, they are unaffected. Creatures can repeat the Charisma saving throw at the beginning of their turns to regain their innate technique. Complicated techniques that have concepts that cannot be contained semantically or pragmatically, such as Star Rage, cannot be removed. What techniques that are too complicated to be removed are determined by the DM. Unfortunately, manipulating concepts is a process that is incredibly intensive on the brain. At the end of Ganesha’s turns while Technique Removal is active, it must make an Arcana check with advantage against a DC of the respective creature’s level or CR. For every check that it fails, it takes xd6 Psychic damage. X=that respective creature’s level or CR. This damage dealt to it ignores Resistance, Immunity, and cannot be reduced in any way. Distance Removal (10 Cursed Energy) As a full turn action, Ganesha can open a Rift to a point it knows as if it were casting the Gate spell. Condition Removal (8 Cursed Energy). As an action, Ganesha can remove a condition affecting itself or another creature within 240 feet of itself. Offensive Obstacle Removal (1+ Cursed Energy) All hostile creatures and any objects of your choice within 240 feet must make a DC 27 Charisma saving throw. On a failure, they are subjected to Ganesha's Absolute Obstacle Control. On a success, they are unaffected. The Cursed Energy cost is equal to the size of the largest creature affected on the Creature Removal Table Absolute Obstacle Control. Creatures under the control of Ganesha’s concept manipulation are restrained and can be moved 80 feet in any direction that Ganesha chooses at the beginning of their turns. Ganesha can move a creature to be pinned up against a wall or ceiling. If this happens the creature takes 55 (10d10) force damage and 55 (10d10) bludgeoning damage at the start of a turn while pinned. This damage repeats until the ceiling or wall breaks. Ganesha can also choose not to move a creature and instead let it fall. The damage dice for falling like this is a d8 and the damage is considered magical. Creatures who have flight capabilities will still take this fall damage if it is under Ganesha’s Absolute Obstacle Control. Creatures under Ganesha’s control can repeat the Charisma saving throw at the end of their turns. As a bonus action, while Ganesha is using its Absolute Obstacle Control, it can make two creatures collide. This deals 2d10 force damage and 2d10 bludgeoning damage per 10 feet traveled. As an action, Ganesha can rapidly move around a selected creature. This causes them to move 160 feet, in a chosen direction, immediately. If they encounter an obstacle while moving, they take 110 (20d10) force damage and 110 (20d10) bludgeoning damage. After taking this damage a creature is pinned until the obstacle breaks, taking the damage at the start of their turns until it breaks. BONUS ACTIONSAdvanced Regeneration.

For the next 10 minutes, wherever it passes through it will not leave its cursed energy tracks behind carelessly, so any person that tries to track or sense its remains will need to be successful on a contested check against what it rolled + its Charisma modifier, if they have any ability or feature that would allow them to track its energy, and if not they can't track you at all. Self Removal (6 Cursed Energy). As a bonus action, Ganesha is able to target itself with its technique to teleport 600 feet. Obstacle Destruction. While Absolute Obstacle Control is active, Ganesha may cause all creatures currently affected by it to take 110 (20d10) force damage, as they are crushed by the concept manipulations spatial distortion. This may be changed to any damage type except radiant. Maximum Output. Ganesha can spend Cursed Energy equal to twice the original cost of one of its cursed techniques to amplify its cursed energy output, making it gain two of the following benefits the next time its cast:
REACTIONSAdvanced Regeneration. As a Reaction to suffering damage, the curse uses it's Advanced Regeneration. Cursed Enhanced Body.
