Actions
Multiattack. The Malboro makes two tentacle attacks and one bite attack.
Tentacle. Melee weapon attack: +10 to hit, Range 10ft, one target. Hit: 10 (1d10 +5) Bludgeoning damage
Bite. Melee weapon attack: +10 to hit, Range 5ft, one target. Hit: 22 (8d4 + 5) piercing damage
Bad Breath (Recharge 5-6). The Malboro breathes out a noxious gas in a 15ft sphere around itself. Each creature in that area must make a DC 20 Constitution saving throw, taking 18 (3d12) acid damage and 18 (3d12) poison damage on a failed saving throw or half as much on a successful one. If a creature fails the saving throw by 5 or more they become poisoned, they may repeat the saving throw at the end of each of their turns, ending the effect on a success.
Summon Sprouts 1/Day. The Malboro summons 1d4 Malboro Sprouts to aid it in battle, they appear in unnocupied spaces within 5ft of the Malboro. They roll their own initiative when they are summoned.
Malboro tend to hand out in swamps and similar areas and rarely venture out of the water unless to protect their ponds. They prefer even in the case of being attacked to take cover and wait for foolish adventurers to come to them.
There is usually only one Malboro per colony of them but it is not unheard of. They need very little food and so rarely need to venture out to hunt, preferring instead to wait for prey to come to them.
