Actions

Multi Attack: The Boulder Snake can use his action to make one tail slam and one bite attack

Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 10ft., one target. Hit: 10(3d4+5) piercing damage, and the target must make a DC 16 Constitution saving throw, taking 17 (5d6) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. If the target fails the save they're considered Poisoned for the next 24 hours and can repeat the saving throw at the end of each hour ending the effect on a success.

Petrifying Gaze: When a creature that can see the Boulder Snake's starts its turn within 30 ft. of the Snake, the Snake can force it to make a DC 16 Constitution saving throw if the Snake isn't Incapacitated and can see the creature. If the saving throw fails by 5 or more, the creature is instantly Petrified. Otherwise, a creature that fails the save begins to turn to stone and is Restrained. The Restrained creature must repeat the saving throw at the end of its next turn, becoming Petrified on a failure or ending the effect on a success. The petrification lasts until the creature is freed by the Greater Restoration spell or other magic.
