Maneuvers. The grell uses maneuvers (maneuver save Difficulty 12). It has 6 stamina dice which are d8s, a dice limit of 1, regains all expended stamina dice when it finishes a long rest, and regains half its total stamina dice when it finishes a short rest. It knows the following maneuvers:
At will: grapple (Tentacles only)
1 stamina die: ambush, spring attack
Actions (2)
Tentacles (1/turn). Melee Weapon Attack: +3 to hit, reach 2 m. Hit: 7 (1d10 + 2) piercing damage and the target must succeed on a Difficulty 11 Fortitude saving throw or be poisoned for 1 minute. Until this poison ends, the target is paralyzed. The target can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
The target is also grappled (escape Difficulty 11). If the target is Medium or smaller, it is also restrained until this grapple ends. While grappling the target, the grell has advantage on attacks made against it and can’t use this attack against other targets. When the grell moves, any Medium or smaller target it is grappling moves with it.
Beak (1/turn). Melee Weapon Attack: +3 to hit. Hit: 7 (2d4 + 2) piercing damage.
