Keen Smell. Waffles has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on smell.
Nondetection. The cat can’t be targeted or detected by any divination magic or perceived through magical scrying sensors.
Pounce. If the cat moves at least 20 feet straight toward a creature and then hits it with a claw attack on the same turn, that target must succeed on a DC 16 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone. If the target is prone, waffles can make one bite attack against it as a bonus action.
Spell Turning. The cat has advantage on saving throws against any spell that targets only the cat (not an area). If the cat’s saving throw succeeds and the spell is of 7th level or lower, the spell has no effect on the cat and instead targets the caster.
Spell Absorption. If Waffles makes a successful saving throw against a spell that targets only Waffles, Waffles takes no damage and instead regains hit points equal to the spell's leveler.
Amulet of Shrink. Waffles can use an action to activate its amulet, causing it to shrink from a Large creature to a Medium creature. While in its shrunken form, Waffles gains a +2 bonus to AC and Dexterity saving throws, and its speed increases to 50 ft. The amulet can be activated again to return Waffles to its normal size.
Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 16 (2d10 + 5) piercing damage.
Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 16 (2d10 + 5) slashing damage.
Cannon. Ranged Weapon Attack: Attack +8 to hit, range 60/240 ft., one target. Hit: 19 (2d12+6) force damage.
Description
The creature referred to in Northlander lore as the Hunter of Men is a sure-footed predator that can be found anywhere except the deep forest, preferring to patrol ledges and cliffs in the mountains. Its cry resembles a human scream of terror. It often elicits such sounds from its victims, for it prefers human flesh to all other fare.
Crag cats blend in with their surroundings. During winter, their fur turns white to blend in with the snow. At other times of the year, their fur is gray, enabling them to hide among the rocks more easily.
The crag cat knows its territory and often attacks when its prey is asleep, exhausted, or otherwise weakened. Although crag cats are typically encountered singly, they can be found in family groups of two parents and 1d4 Small noncombatant cubs in the spring, or in hungry packs in severe winter weather.
