.. index:: poisoned; by dretch fetid cloud

:bi:`Fetid Cloud (1/Day)`. A 10-foot radius of disgusting green gas
extends out from the dretch. The gas spreads around corners, and its
area is lightly obscured. It lasts for 1 minute or until a strong wind
disperses it. Any creature that starts its turn in that area must
succeed on a DC 11 Constitution saving throw or be :ref:`poisoned` until the
start of its next turn. While :ref:`poisoned` in this way, the target can take
either an action or a bonus action on its turn, not both, and can't take
reactions.
