Improved Cursed Energy Recovery. The curse regains 3 cursed energy at the beginning of each of it's turns. Famous Name. Whenever Kuchisake-Onna rolls initiative, it may force every hostile creature that can see it to make a Wisdom saving throw (DC 17). On a failure, they are frightened for one minute.

Once per turn, Kuchisake-Onna may add its cr in extra damage to an attack. Shifty. Kuchisake-Onna can disengage as a bonus action. Invisible Force. You are entirely made out of cursed energy, meaning you cannot be seen by normal people.

On a success they take half damage and do not gain the condition. Simple Scissor Domain (10 Cursed Energy). Once Kuchisake-Onna is at 1/2 of it's hit points, it may use its domain expansion. The environment within a 165-foot radius centered on the Cursed Spirit transforms into a surreal cityscape shrouded in darkness, with twisted, narrow alleyways appearing where none existed before. The Domain is considered a non-violent domain and can not be clashed with. Once the Domain is active Kuchisake-Onna may impose the question "Am I pretty?". All creatures within the simple domain must make a DC 17 Intelligence saving throw.

Kuchisake-onna (口裂け女, 'Slit-Mouthed Woman') is a malevolent figure in Japanese urban legends and folklore. Described as the malicious spirit, or onryō, of a woman, she partially covers her face with a mask or other item and carries a pair of scissors, a knife, or some other sharp object. She is most often described as having long, straight, black hair, pale skin, and otherwise being considered beautiful (except for her scar). She has been described as a contemporary yōkai. According to popular legend, she asks potential victims if they think she is beautiful. If they respond with "no", she will either kill them with her long medical scissors on the spot or wait until nightfall and murder them in their sleep. If they say "yes", she will reveal that the corners of her mouth are slit from ear to ear, and she will then repeat her question. If the individual responds with "no", she will kill them with her weapon, and if they say "yes" hesitantly she will cut the corners of their mouth in such a way that resembles her own disfigurement. Methods that can be used to survive an encounter with Kuchisake-onna include answering her question by describing her appearance as "average"
