Actions

Claws. Melee Weapon Attack: +3 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 3 (1d4 + 1) piercing damage.

Branch Smack. Melee Weapon Attack: +3 to hit, reach 5ft. (sweeping), two targets. Hit: 3 (1d4 + 1) bludgeoning damage.

Entangle. Ranged Spell: 90ft. Grasping weeds and vines sprout from the ground in a 20-foot square starting from a point within range. For the duration, these plants turn the ground in the area into difficult terrain.

A creature in the area when you cast the spell must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be restrained by the entangling plants until the spell ends. A creature restrained by the plants can use its action to make a Strength check against your spell save DC. On a success, it frees itself.

When the spell ends, the conjured plants wilt away.

Description

A Bowtruckle is an awakened plant that resembles a woody shrub that can pull its roots free of the ground. Its branches twist together to form a humanoid-looking body with a head and limbs.

"The Bowtruckle is a tree-guardian creature found mainly in forests. It is immensely difficult to spot, being small (maximum 8in. in height) and apparently made of bark and twigs with two small brown eyes. The Bowtruckle, which eats insects, is a peaceable and intensely why creature but if the tree in which it lives is threatened, it has a been known to leap down upon the woodcutter or tree-surgeon attempting to harm its home and gouge out their eyes with its long, sharp fingers." - Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
