SPECIAL TRAITS

• Evasion. If the Rodent Queen is subjected to an effect that allows her to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, she instead takes no damage if she succeeds on the saving throw, and only half damage if she fails.
• Rodent-Speaker. The Rodent Queen is able to understand and be understood by rats. In addition, by spending a bonus action she can summon 1d4+1 Rat Swarms (up to a maximum of 16 in a 24 hour period). All rats obey her commands (even those conjured by others).

ACTIONS

• Multiattack. The Rodent Queen attacks four times.
• Unarmed Strike. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d10+3) slashing damage.
• Magic Daggers. Melee or Ranged Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5 ft. or range 20/60 ft., one target. Hit: 6 (1d4+4) magical piercing damage. Immediately after hitting or missing the target, a thrown magical dagger reappears in the Rodent Queen’s hand.

REACTIONS

• Reflexive Dodge. When the Rodent Queen is aware of an attacker, she may spend her reaction to reduce the damage of an attack or spell by half.

ABOUT

Long rat-like ears poke out from beneath the dirty crimson rags worn by this half-beast, a dagger held in each hand.
