Actions
^^^^^^^

.. index:: grappled; by octopus tentacles

:bi:`Tentacles`. *Melee Weapon Attack:* +4 to hit, reach 5 ft., one
target. *Hit:* 1 bludgeoning damage, and the target is :ref:`grappled` (escape
DC 10). Until this grapple ends, the octopus can't use its tentacles on
another target.

:bi:`Ink Cloud (Recharges after a Short or Long Rest)`. A 5- foot radius
cloud of ink extends all around the octopus if it is underwater. The
area is heavily obscured for 1 minute, although a significant current
can disperse the ink. After releasing the ink, the octopus can use the
Dash action as a bonus action.
