Traits

Actions

Multiattack. The bear makes two attacks: one with its bite and one with its claws.

Claws. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 12 (2d6+ 5) slashing damage.

Reactions

Germinate:  When the bear is brought to 0 hit points with any type of damage other than fire, vines will rupture from its body spreading a cloud of tiny seeds in a 10ft radius sphere centered on the corpse.  All characters caught within the sphere must make a Con saving throw (DC 13) or become infected with Blight.

Description

This creature used to be a normal Cave Bear until it became infected with the disease known as the Blight.  Now that its infection has spread, the creature is barely more than a walking plague vector, and is most deadly once its life has ended.
