Traits

Actions

Multiattack. The sharpclaw makes two attacks with its Claw, Spear, or both.

Claw. Melee Attack Roll: +7, reach 5 ft. Hit: 11 (2d6 + 4) Piercing damage, and the target is Grappled (escape DC 15). The carcinoss has two claws, each of which can grapple only one target.

Bonus Actions

Reinforce (3/Day). The sharpclaw can choose to present the most fortified part of its shell against attackers, gaining a +3 bonus to its AC until this trait causes an attacking creature to miss. If this trait causes the attack to miss, that section of shell is cracked, and the next time the sharpclaw uses this trait, it gains a +2 bonus to their AC, and a +1 bonus to its AC the third time it uses this trait.
