Scourged Ground (Recharge 5–6). As a bonus action, the blighted triceratops 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
Once a mighty herbivore, the Blighted Triceratops has become a hulking, corrupted beast driven by an insatiable urge to spread the Blighted Scourge. Its once-sturdy hide is now riddled with pulsating blighted energy, and its horns are twisted into jagged, unnatural shapes. No longer a peaceful creature, it charges with terrifying force, trampling anything in its path and leaving a trail of corrupted land in its wake. When slain, its body erupts in a burst of blighted energy, infecting everything nearby.
