## Spine Dragon Spine dragons are completely immune to damage and cannot be killed by any known means. They are not known to ever attack anyone or anything. Thus, there is no reason to bother giving them combat statistics. Give them a bite attack with a +8 attack mod and does 1d10 + 4 damage, or something, if one of your PCs is stupid enough to stick their arm in the mouth of a spine dragon. ___ > ## Tabibari >*Medium beast, unaligned* > ___ > - **Armor Class** 11 > - **Hit Points** 11 (2d8 + 2) > - **Speed** 40 ft. >___ >|STR|DEX|CON|INT|WIS|CHA| >|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:| >|14 (+2)|13 (+1)|12 (+1)|2 (-4)|12 (+1)|7 (-2)| >___ > - **Senses** passive Perception 10 > - **Languages** — > - **Challenge** 1/8 (25 XP) > ___ > ***Pack Tactics.*** The tabibari has advantage on attack rolls against a creature if at least one of the tabibari's allies is within 5 feet of the creature and the ally isn't incapacitated. > > ***Hive Mind.*** When within 100 feet of at least one other tabibari, the tabibari connects with the others and forms a hive mind.

\page # Vyderac Matron ### A Vyderac Matron's Lair The lair of a vyderac matron is usually a cliff side, massive tree, or other area with good vantage points on a high elevation. A vyderac matron is, in essence, her own lair, so she is always found within her lair and always has access to her lair action. #### Lair Actions When fighting inside her lair, a vyderac matron can use lair actions. On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), a vyderac matron can take one lair action to cause one of the following effects; the vyderac matron can't use the same lair action two rounds in a row. * The vyderac matron sprays a cloud of pheromones at a targer or location within 50 feet. If aimed at a creature, the target must succeed on a DC 19 Dexterity saving throw or be covered in the substance. If the pheromones miss, they still land at the space the creature is occupying. 1d4 vyderac within 100 feet will use their next turn to swarm and attack the creature covered in pheromones, or any non-vyderac creatures within 20 feet of the pheromones. Additionally, all vyderac within 1 mile will be notified of the matron's distress and rush to her aid, targeting the creature or location covered in pheromones as a priority. * The vyderac matron spawns and mutates new vyderac. Choose one of the following to spawn at a space within 5 feet of the vyderac matron: one vyderac feeder, 1d4 vyderac seekers, or 1d6 vyderac swarmers. The newly spawned vyderac can take their turn(s) immediately. * In an effort to deter attackers that get too close, the vyderac matron will exude a new batch of non-mutated maggots. 1d10 vyderac maggots spawn in random spaces within 5 feet of the matron. * The vyderac matron chooses to immediately activate her destructive gestation ability.

The self-destruct causes a massive explosion of acid that affects all creatures within 100 feet. Each creature in that area must make a DC 19 Dexterity saving throw, taking 45 (10d8) acid damage on a failed save, and half as much on a successful one. > > ***Area Control.*** Because of the vast swarms of vyderac in the 1 to 5 mile-radius area surrounding the matron, she is keenly aware of who and what is in her territory. A matron is aware, within 30 minutes, of any creature that enters her territory, how many creatures there are, and their general location. > > ***Legendary Resistance.*** These guys work together. Like super well, you don't even know. > ### Actions > ***Multiattack.*** The vyderac matron makes two attacks with her claws. > > ***Claw.*** *Melee Weapon Attack:* +11 to hit, reach 15 ft., one target. *Hit:* 19 (3d8 + 6) bludgeoning damage.

Additionally, vyderac within 50 feet will choose the target to attack if they are able to. > ### Legendary Actions > The vyderac matron can take 3 legendary actions, choosing from the options below. She can only take one legendary action at a time and only at the end of another creature's turn. The vyderac matron regains spent legendary actions at the start of its turn. > > **Claw.** The vyderac matron makes a claw attack. > > **Acid Spit (2 actions).** The vyderac matron makes an acid spit attack. > > **Consume Blood.** If a vyderac feeder is within 20 feet of the matron, she can consume the blood stored within it to regain 13 (3d8) hit points. > > **Spawn Maggots (2 actions).** The vyderac matron spawns 1d6 vyderac maggots in random spaces within 5 feet of the matron.

The target or another creature within 5 feet must use their action and succeed on a DC 12 Strength check to remove the swarmer. > > ***Inject.*** After latching onto a target, the swarmer can use its next action to impale its target with a small spike and inject it with venom, dealing 3 (1d6) poison damage. ___ > ## Vyderac Seeker >*Tiny monstrosity, unaligned* > ___ > - **Armor Class** 12 > - **Hit Points** 9 (2d8) > - **Speed** 10ft., fly 80 ft. >___ >|STR|DEX|CON|INT|WIS|CHA| >|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:| >|10 (+0)|14 (+2)|10 (+0)|1 (-5)|10 (+0)|3 (-4)| >___ > - **Senses** passive Perception 10 > - **Languages** — > - **Challenge** 1/2 (100 XP) > ___ > ***Flyby.*** The seeker doesn't provoke opportunity attacks when it flies out of an opponent's reach. > ### Actions > ***Powder (Recharge 4-5).*** The seeker spits a cloud of fine powder at a target within 10 feet. The target must make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw or be coated in the powder, which causes extreme itching. At the start of their next turn, the target must make a DC 12 Wisdom saving throw or spend their action itching their skin. If the target fails this save and itches themselves (or itches themselves for any other reason) two times in a 1 minute period, they take 3 (1d6) slashing damage as the powder mixes with their blood. Once this happens, the target must succeed on a DC 12 Constitution saving throw or be paralyzed for 1 minute. In addition, a pheromone signal is sent out to all vyderac swarmers and feeders within 300 feet, who will come to attack the target. The powder lasts for 2d6 hours or until washed off.
