ACTIONS
Multiattack. The arcanaloth makes two claw attacks. It can replace one attack with a use of Spellcasting.
Bite. Melee Weapon Attack. +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit. 6 (1d6 + 3) piercing damage.
Claws. Melee Weapon Attack. +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit. 8 (1d4 + 3) slashing damage plus 1d6 force damage. The target must make a DC 14 Constitution saving throw, taking 10 (3d6) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. If a Medium or smaller target is hit with two claw attacks on the same turn, it is also grappled.
Fire Bolt (Cantrip; V, S). Ranged Spell Attack. +9 to hit, range 120 ft., one target. Hit. 16 (3d10) fire damage.
Fireball (3rd-Level; V, S). Fire streaks from the pit fiend to a point within 120 feet and explodes in a 20-foot radius, spreading around corners. Each creature in the area makes a DC 18 Dexterity saving throw , taking 21 (6d6) fire damage on a failed save or half damage on a success.
Hold Monster (5th-Level; V, S, Concentration). A creature within 60 feet that the arcanaloth can see makes a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw . On a failure, it is paralyzed for 1 minute. The creature repeats the save at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on a success.
Finger of Death (7th-Level; V, S). The aracnaloth sends negative energy coursing though a creature it can see within 60 feet of it. The creature must make a DC 17 Constitution saving throw, taking 61 (7d8 + 30) necrotic damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. A humanoid killed by this spell turns into a zombie at the start of the arcanaloth's next turn. The zombie is permanently under the arcanaloth's control and follows its spoken commands.
- Cast at Higher Levels. The damage increases by 2d8 for each slot level above 7th
BONUS ACTIONS
Chomp. The arcanaloth can make a bite attack against a creature it has grappled.
Daemon Step (1/Rest). The arcanaloth uses its teleport action.
REACTIONS
Counterspell (3rd-Level; S). When a creature the arcanaloth can see within 60 feet casts a spell, the arcanaloth attempts to interrupt it. If the creature is casting a 2nd-level spell or lower, the spell fails. If the creature is casting a 3rd-level or higher spell, the arcanaloth makes an Intelligence check against a DC of 10 + the spell’s level. On a success, the spell fails, and the spellcasting creature can use its reaction to try to cast a second spell with the same casting time so long as it uses a spell slot level equal to or less than half the original spell slot. If the arcanaloth casts counterspell with a higher spell slot, the interrupted spell fails if its level is less than that of counterspell.
Shield (1st-Level; V, S). When the arcanaloth is hit by an attack or targeted by magic missile , they gain a +5 bonus to AC (including against the triggering attack) and immunity to magic missile. These benefits last until the start of their next turn.
