Amphibious. The chuul can breathe air and water.
Sense Magic. The chuul senses magic within 120 feet of it at will. This trait otherwise works like the detect magic spell but isn't itself magical.
Multiattack. The chuul makes four pincer attacks. Then uses its poison spit, terrible shriek, or tentacles once.
Pincer. Melee Weapon Attack: +10 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 17 (2d10 + 6) bludgeoning damage plus 14 (4d6) cold damage. The target is grappled (escape DC 18) if it is a Large or smaller creature and the chuul doesn't have two other creatures grappled.
Tentacles. One creature grappled by the chuul must succeed on a DC 18 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned for 1 minute. Until this poison ends, the target is paralyzed and takes 21 (6d6) cold damage at the start of each of its turns. The target can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
Poison Spit. Ranged Weapon Attack: +10 to hit, range 30/60 ft., one target. Hit: 21 (6d6) cold damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 18 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned for 1 minute. Until this poison ends, the target is paralyzed and takes 21 (6d6) cold damage at the start of each of its turns. The target can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
Terrible Shriek (Recharge 4-6). The chuul emits a piercing psionic shriek, every creature within 30 ft. must succeed a DC 18 Constitution saving throw or take 21 (6d6) thunder damage and 21 (6d6) psychic damage, the creature is also deafened for 1 minute.
