Multiple Heads. Cerberus has three heads. While it has more than one head, it has advantage on saving throws against being blinded, deafened, and stunned. Whenever Cerberus takes 40 or more damage in a single turn, one of its heads dies. If all its heads die, Cerberus dies.
Magic Resistance. Cerberus has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.
Magic Weapons. Cerberus’ attacks are magical.
Relentless Tracker. The cerberus knows the distance to and direction of any creature under the effect of its curse, as long as the creature and the cerberus are on the same plane of existence. If the creature being tracked by the cerberus dies, the cerberus knows.
Soul Tracker. The cerberus can pinpoint, by scent, the location of any soul within 30 feet of it.
Legendary Resistance (3/day). If Cerberus fails a saving throw, it can choose to succeed instead.

Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 16 (3d6 + 4) piercing damage.
Claws. Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 11 (4d4 + 4) slashing damage.
Fire Breath (Recharge 6). The dragon head exhales fire in a 15-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw, taking 31 (7d8) fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
