Hive Mind. The Blighted Stegosaurus shares a hive mentality with other Blighted creatures, allowing them to coordinate attacks. If one Blighted creature is aware of a hostile creature, all others in the hive mind are also aware.
Blighted Scourge. Natural weapon attacks by the Blighted Stegosaurus can infect creatures with the Blighted Scourge. A creature hit by the Stegosaurus’s attack must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or contract the Blighted Scourge.
Death Burst. When the Blighted Stegosaurus dies, it explodes in necrotic energy. All creatures within 15 feet must make a DC 14 Constitution saving throw, taking 18 4d8 Blighted energy damage on a failed save, and they are afflicted by the Blighted Scourge.
Tail. Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 27 (6d6 + 6) piercing damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or be knocked prone.
Trample (Recharge 5-6). The Blighted Stegosaurus charges a creature within 30 feet. The creature must make a DC 16 Dexterity saving throw or take 21 (4d6 + 6) bludgeoning damage and be knocked prone.
Scourged Ground (Recharge 5–6). As a bonus action, the blighted elephant corrupts a 10-foot radius area within 60 feet of it for 1 minute. The area becomes difficult terrain for enemies, and when a creature in this area takes damage, it suffers an additional 1d6 blight damage. Infected creatures in the area must make a DC 16 Constitution saving throw or advance in the Blighted Scourge infection.
Description
The Blighted Stegosaurus is a massive, corrupted dinosaur covered in dark, jagged plates that pulse with blighted energy. Its once-mighty tail is now a weapon of infection, laced with the power of the Blighted Scourge. Roaming the corrupted lands in small packs, these creatures act as living battering rams, using their immense strength to trample anything in their path.
Unlike their natural counterparts, Blighted Stegosauruses possess an eerie, unnatural intelligence, allowing them to coordinate with other Blighted creatures in combat. Their thickened, spiked hide grants them formidable resistance against conventional weaponry, making them difficult to bring down. When a Blighted Stegosaurus falls, its death triggers a violent eruption of blighted energy, ensuring that even in death, it continues to spread the infection.
