Glaucus

 

    This gigantic worm lives in Ghara's underground, forming new caves through the secretion of a mucus that melts anything. The trail of ichor in the ground, walls and ceiling after it passes is an ideal substrate for pranatrophic lichen, its favorite food. This makes it an animal which nearly plants what it eats. Unfortunatelly, it also consumes other sources of prana, like animals and people. The creature can distill prana into an universal solvent called azoth, silvery and liquid like mercury. Despite the dangers of carrying such a substance (only lead containers work), it is very valued by alchemists. The glaucus has no eyes, ears or nostrils, only a mouth. It has garnet gemstones along its body, which serve as organs for eletrolocation, eletrocommunication and as a compass, combining perception, communication and navigation in a sense unknown and incomprehensible to almost every living being.

• Acid mucus. At the start of each of the glaucus's turns, each creature within 5 feet of it takes 7 (2d6) acid damage. A creature that touches the glaucus or hits it with a melee attack while within 5 feet of it takes 7 (2d6) acid damage.

ACTIONS

1. Multiattack. The glaucus makes four attacks with its whip-tentacles.
2. Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +14 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 22 (3d8 + 10) piercing damage. If the target is a Large or smaller creature, it must succeed on a DC 19 Dexterity saving throw or be swallowed by the glaucus. A swallowed creature is blinded and restrained, it has total cover against attacks and other effects outside the glaucus, and it takes 35 (10d6) acid damage at the start of each of the glaucus's turns. If the glaucus dies, a swallowed creature is no longer restrained by it and can escape from the corpse by using 20 feet of movement, exiting prone.
3. Whip-tentacle. Melee Weapon Attack: +14 to hit, reach 30 ft., one target. Hit: 13 (1d6 + 10) slashing damage plus 7 (2d6) acid damage, and the target must succeed on a DC 20 Strength saving throw or be pulled up to 25 feet toward the glaucus.
