Traits

Charge. If the bearelk moves at least 20 feet straight toward a target and then hits it with a ram attack on the same turn, the target takes an extra 7 (2d6) damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 15 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone. If the target is prone, the bearelk can make one bite attack against it as a bonus action.

Actions

Multiattack. The bearelk makes two attacks: one with its bite and one with its claws.

Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 10 (1d10 + 5) piercing damage.

Claws. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 14 (2d8 + 5) slashing damage.

Ram. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 12 (2d6 + 5) bludgeoning damage.

Stupefying Stare. The bearelk targets one creature it can see within 60 feet of it. If the target can see the bearelk, it must succeed on a DC 12 Wisdom saving throw or become stunned until the end of the bearelk's next turn. The target can repeat this saving throw if it takes damage or another creature takes an action to shake it out of its stupor.

Description

BEARELK
The twisted necrotic energies that permeate through
cursed woods can raise undead creatures, mutate existing
ones, or even spawn new kinds of abominations, one of
which is the infamous bearelk. The appearance of the
bearelk matches its name: it has the body of a bear, and the
head of a monstrous elk. It is more commonly a scavenger
than a predator and may just as likely ignore travelers in
the cursed woods as attack them. Bearelks usually move
alone, but small groups are not uncommon. The bearelk
may appear sedentary and slow-moving to observers, but
this slothful appearance will change drastically once the
abomination decides to attack. The monstrosity moves with
spectacular speed when it charges and will smash into its
victim with horrifying force.
Frightful Stare. Those who have encountered the
bearelk tell tales of its horrifying stare, which seems to
mesmerize those who lock eyes with the monster. The
bearelk is a rather predictable creature and skilled rangers
know how to predict its actions. It will lock eyes with the
creature it is planning on attacking, and once it has used its
gaze to stun its quarry, it charges with devastating speed.
