Hold Breath. The bunyip can hold its breath for 30 minutes.
Ramming Speed. If the bunyip moves at least 20 feet straight toward a creature and then hits it with a ram attack on the same turn, that target must succeed on a DC 12 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone. If the target is prone, the bunyip can make one bite or tail attack against it as a bonus action.
Multiattack. The bunyip makes two attacks: with its bite, horns, or tail.
Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 20 (3d10 + 4) piercing damage, and the target is grappled (escape DC 16). Until this grapple ends, the target is restrained, and the bunyip can't bite another target.
Tail. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target not grappled by the bunyip. Hit: 14 (2d8 + 4) slashing damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 16 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone.
Ram. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target not grappled by the bunyip. Hit: 14 (2d8 + 4) bludgeoning damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 16 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone.
Description
The bunyip is a low-slung otter-like creature that is about twenty feet long and five feet wide. It has two sets of flippers, both ending with claws that enable it to scrabble along in shallow water or on its native swampland. It has a horned crest on top of its head, which it primarily uses to attack large creatures and boats from underneath. Behind the crest, its blowhole lies, allowing it to hide under water for hours on end. The bunyip's tail is long and whiplike, and it can reach up to just in front of its jaws with it. It's mouth is a circle of several rows of teeth, like a lamprey, and it pulls its victims down its throat, chewing the entire time.
Bunyips prefer swampland and shallow lakes, rivers, and creeks. Although nominally an omnivore, its preferred prey are crocodiles, large fish, and livestock, with humanoids as tasty treats. Since it isn't that intelligent, boats remind it of its nemesis, the large crocodile, and it will attack almost immediately, preferably with its horns.
