Actions
^^^^^^^

:bi:`Multiattack`. The otyugh makes three attacks: one with its bite and
two with its tentacles.

.. index:: poisoned; by otyugh bite

:bi:`Bite`. *Melee Weapon Attack:* +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target.
*Hit:* 12 (2d8 + 3) piercing damage. If the target is a creature, it
must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw against disease or
become :ref:`poisoned` until the disease is cured. Every 24 hours that elapse,
the target must repeat the saving throw, reducing its hit point maximum
by 5 (1d10) on a failure. The disease is cured on a success. The target
dies if the disease reduces its hit point maximum to 0. This reduction
to the target's hit point maximum lasts until the disease is cured.

.. index::
   single: grappled; by otyugh tentacle
   single: restrained; by otyugh tentacle

:bi:`Tentacle`. *Melee Weapon Attack:* +6 to hit, reach 10 ft., one
target. *Hit:* 7 (1d8 + 3) bludgeoning damage plus 4 (1d8) piercing
damage. If the target is Medium or smaller, it is :ref:`grappled` (escape DC
13) and :ref:`restrained` until the grapple ends. The otyugh has two tentacles,
each of which can grapple one target.

.. index::
   single: stunned; by otyugh tentacle slam

:bi:`Tentacle Slam`. The otyugh slams creatures :ref:`grappled` by it into each
other or a solid surface. Each creature must succeed on a DC 14
Constitution saving throw or take 10 (2d6 + 3) bludgeoning damage and be
:ref:`stunned` until the end of the otyugh's next turn. On a successful save,
the target takes half the bludgeoning damage and isn't :ref:`stunned`.
