Actions

  • Multiattack. The retriever makes three attacks: one with its bite and two with its claws.
  • Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +10 to hit, reach 15 ft., one target. Hit: 9 (1d8 + 5) piercing damage, and the target must succeed on a DC 17 Constitution saving throw, taking 9 (2d8) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
  • Claws. Melee Weapon Attack: +10 to hit, reach 15 ft., one target. Hit: 15 (3d6 + 5) slashing damage.
  • Eye Rays. The retriever’s eyes produce four different magical rays, each of which can only be used once every four rounds. The retriever can only fire a single ray each round, choosing one target it can see within 90 feet of it: Cold Ray. The targeted creature must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw, taking 36 (8d8) cold damage on a failed save, or half as much on a successful one.
  • Fire Ray. The targeted creature must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw, taking 35 (10d6) fire damage on a failed save, or half as much on a successful one.
  • Lightning Ray. The targeted creature must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw, taking 33 (6d10) lightning damage on a failed save, or half as much on a successful one.
  • Petrification Ray. The targeted creature must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creature magically begins to turn to stone and is restrained. It must repeat the saving throw at the end of its next turn. On a success, the effect ends. On a failure, the creature is petrified until freed by the greater restoration spell or other magic.
