Heat-Hardening. Upon being hit by a fire move while covered in mud, the barroth will gain +4 AC and lose its vulnerability to fire. This will cause the barroth to lose its AC bonus from the Wallow action and prevent it from using the Shake action until it is coated in wet mud again. This hardened mud can be broken off by dealing 16(2d8+8) damage to the barroth.
Multiattack. The barroth makes two attacks: one with its headbutt and one with its stomp.
Stomp. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 10 (2d8 + 2) bludgeoning damage.
Headbutt. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 16 (3d8 + 4) bludgeoning damage.
THE TRAIN. Melee Weapon Attack: The barroth charges 40 feet straight in a direction, and all creatures that are passed through by the Barroth must succeed a DC 17 Acrobatics saving throw or take 16 (3d8 + 4) bludgeoning damage and be knocked back 15 feet in a direction that makes sense. If the barroth hits a wall while in this attack, it will fall prone and take 8 (2d8) bludgeoning damage.
Wallow. The barroth wallows in mud, covering itself in a thick layer, which grants the barroth +2 AC for 1 minute or until it takes 15 damage from a single attack.
Shake. While the barroth is covered in mud it may use its action shake chunks of mud free from its body landing in a 10-foot radius around itself, turning the terrain into very difficult terrain (3x movement cost) for 4 turns or until washed away by some form of water or removed in some other manner.
Description
Barroth are a large, bipedal monster belonging to the Brute Wyvern class. It is noted for the large crown structure atop its skull, which houses its nostrils. Its body is covered in rigid plates of armored hide that help protect it from the harsh desert environment. Barroth possesses a pair of small red eyes and a mouthful of long, peg-shaped teeth.
Barroth is capable of using its heavy head as a plow to smash through the environment, as well as cause damage to any living thing caught in its way. Because its nostrils are located on top of its head, Barroth can completely submerge itself in the cool mud during the scorching desert days.
It will occasionally roll in dirt and mud, possibly to cool off from the hot desert sun. Although docile by default, Barroth becomes extremely territorial when disturbed. It will release an initial warning roar. If that fails, it will continuously attack until the threat is exterminated. An insectivore, it is known to attack Altaroth nests in order to feast on the occupants inside.
Barroth is uniquely adapted to a desert lifestyle, and as such can almost exclusively be found in such regions, although it has been known to wander into the woods occasionally.
