Actions

Call: The Clatterjaw can call out to its allies as they are never alone.

Headbutt: Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 10 ft., 1 target. Hit: 12 (1d12 + 6) bludgeoning damage. 

Crushing Bite: The Clatterjaw lunges forward and attempts to grapple one target that must succeed a DC 15 Str saving throw or be pined by the Clatterjaw and take 1d8 bludgeoning, but every turn the target can make another str saving throw that goes up by 1 every round, starting at 15. Failing this saving throw will mean that the target takes one extra d8 per turn. (1d8, 2d8, 3d8, etc.).

Description

The Clatterjaw is a medium dragon that is from the Dragonslayer Codex by Sawyer Lee. It stands only a little taller than your average person, at 3 meters tall. The larynx (voice box)of this animal is all but gone thus requiring them to communicate via clicking and clattering their teeth and bone plates. It can also use the flap of muscled skin under its neck to communicate. One will always hear a Clatterjaw before seeing them and they are rarely alone, another Clatterjaw is almost always within 120 ft. with their clattering calls reaching around 200 ft. away. They are purplish to gray in color with the males more commonly purple and slightly larger. The Clatterjaw has unnatural endurance and speed even though it has lost its ability to fly and yet still can glide a far distance. It is known for its powerful bite, being the strongest bite of any from the Dragonslayer Codex as its jaws are almost like a biological piston with a build-up of water that turns to steam with the pressure. slowly crushing the held target.

Habitat: Swamp
