Lair and Lair Actions
Ant Queen Lair Actions (Initiative 20, losing ties):
- Acidic Ooze (Costs 1 Action): A pool of corrosive ant-acid oozes up from a fungal patch or crevice on the cavern floor within 60 feet of the queen. The 10-foot-radius area becomes difficult terrain until initiative count 20 on the next round. Any creature that starts its turn in the area or enters it for the first time on a turn must succeed on a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw or take 7 (2d6) acid damage.
- Tunnel Collapse (Costs 2 Actions): The queen causes a section of the tunnel ceiling within 60 feet of her to partially collapse. Choose a 10-foot-square area. Each creature in that area must make a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw, taking 10 (3d6) bludgeoning damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The area becomes difficult terrain until cleared (requiring a DC 13 Strength (Athletics) check as an action).
- Fungal Spores (Costs 1 Action): The glowing fungus in the cavern releases a cloud of irritating spores in a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on a point within 60 feet of the queen. The area is lightly obscured until initiative count 20 on the next round. Any creature that starts its turn in the area must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned until the start of its next turn.
- Emergency Burrow (Costs 2 Actions - Only if at half HP or less): The queen quickly burrows up to half her speed through a soft section of the cavern floor, leaving a small tunnel behind her. She can emerge from a new point within 60 feet of her original position. This movement does not provoke opportunity attacks. (This adds to her mobility and allows her to reposition).
- Rapid Hatch (Costs 3 Actions - 1/Fight): The queen emits a pheromone that rapidly hatches a clutch of eggs. 1d4 Worker Ants (or 1 Worker Ant and 1 Ant Drone if you want to introduce a flying threat later) appear in unoccupied spaces within 30 feet of the queen and act on the next initiative count. This can be used once per combat.
