Frightening Gaze. The wampus cat fixes its gaze on one creature it can see within 10 feet of it. The target must succeed on a DC 13 Wisdom saving throw against this magic or become frightened for 1 minute. The frightened target can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. If a target’s saving throw is successful or the effect ends for it, the target is immune to the wampus cat’s gaze for the next 24 hours.
Stench. Any creature other than a wampus cat that starts its turn within 5 feet of the wampus cat must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned until the start of the creature’s next turn. On a successful saving throw, the creature is immune to the stench of all wampus cats for 1 hour.

Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d6 + 4) piercing damage.
Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d8 + 4) slashing damage.
Description
Legend says that the original wampus cat was a woman possessed by the spirit of a great mountain cat. These silent predators have been known steal children to be raised by the hags or other Unseelie fey. When it attacks, it lets out a strange, high pitched hissing sound.
This great cat has six legs, but will occasionally run upright on just two legs. The wampus cat has a sleek, heavily muscled frame with jet black fur and a horrible smell like that of a wet animal that has fallen into a bog after it messed with a skunk. It has startlingly human eyes that shine with an eerie yellow glow.
Wampus cats live in deserted, humid areas with much plant growth, particularly swamplands and forested ravines. Wampus cats range from 7 to 9 feet long and can weigh anywhere from 250 to 700 pounds.
