Actions

Multiattack. The giant crocodile mummy can use its dreadful glare and makes two attacks: one with its rotting bite and one with its rotting tail.

Rotting Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +11 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature. Hit: 23 (3d10 + 7) piercing damage plus 14 (4d6) necrotic damage, and the target is grappled (escape DC 19). Until this grapple ends, the target is restrained, and the giant crocodile mummy can't bite another target. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 17 Constitution saving throw or be cursed with mummy rot. The cursed target can't regain hit points, and its hit point maximum decreases by 14 (4d6) for every 24 hours that elapse. If the curse reduces the target's hit points to 0, the target dies, and its body turns to dust. The curse lasts until removed by the remove curse spell or other magic.

Rotting Tail. Melee Weapon Attack: +11 to hit, reach 10 ft., one creature. Hit: 16 (2d8 + 7) piercing damage plus 14 (4d6) necrotic damage. If the target is a creature it must succeed on a DC 19 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone. In addition, the creature must succeed on a DC 17 Constitution saving throw or be cursed with mummy rot. The cursed target can't regain hit points, and its hit point maximum decreases by 14 (4d6) for every 24 hours that elapse. If the curse reduces the target's hit points to 0, the target dies, and its body turns to dust. The curse lasts until removed by the remove curse spell or other magic.

Dreadful Glare. The crocodile mummy targets one creature it can see within 60 feet of it. If the target can see the mummy, it must succeed on a DC 13 Wisdom saving throw against this magic or become frightened until the end of the mummy’s next turn. If the target fails the saving throw by 5 or more, it is also paralyzed for the same duration. A target that succeeds on the saving throw is immune to the Dreadful Glare of all mummies (but not mummy lords) for the next 24 hours.


Description

This massive undead reptile normally serves as the guardian or instrument of vengeance of a funerary temple. Unlike a sapient humanoid mummy, a giant crocodile mummy is a witless zombie-like automata. Its reptilian flesh is hidden under linen wrappings that contain talismans and glyph-inscribed parchments used in the monster's creation rites.

Multiattack. The fasolasuchus mummy can use its dreadful glare and makes two attacks: one with its rotting bite and one with its rotting tail.

Rotting Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +11 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature. Hit: 23 (3d10 + 7) piercing damage plus 14 (4d6) necrotic damage, and the target is grappled (escape DC 19).

The cursed target can't regain hit points, and its hit point maximum decreases by 14 (4d6) for every 24 hours that elapse. If the curse reduces the target's hit points to 0, the target dies, and its body turns to dust. The curse lasts until removed by the remove curse spell or other magic.

Rotting Death Shake. If the fasolasuchus mummy has grappled a target smaller than itself with its jaws it can savagely shake its head. The grappled creature must make a DC 19 Constitution saving throw, taking 18 (2d10 + 7) piercing damage plus 18 (2d10 + 7) slashing damage and 28 (8d6) necrotic damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. In addition, the creature must succeed on a DC 17 Constitution saving throw or be cursed with mummy rot. The cursed target can't regain hit points, and its hit point maximum decreases by 14 (4d6) for every 24 hours that elapse. If the curse reduces the target's hit points to 0, the target dies, and its body turns to dust. The curse lasts until removed by the remove curse spell or other magic.

Rotting Tail. Melee Weapon Attack: +11 to hit, reach 10 ft., one creature. Hit: 16 (2d8 + 7) piercing damage plus 14 (4d6) necrotic damage. If the target is a creature it must succeed on a DC 19 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone.

Dreadful Glare. The mummy targets one creature it can see within 60 feet of it. If the target can see the mummy, it must succeed on a DC 13 Wisdom saving throw against this magic or become frightened until the end of the mummy’s next turn. If the target fails the saving throw by 5 or more, it is also paralyzed for the same duration. A target that succeeds on the saving throw is immune to the Dreadful Glare of all mummies (but not mummy lords) for the next 24 hours.

Okay, apart from the "shouldn't it be neutral evil" issue the only problem I found is the Dreadful Glare DC is too high. 8 plus +0 CHA plus +4 Proficiency is DC 12 not 15.

I'd be game for bumping up the big guys CHA to 12 (+1) for a DC 13 Glare.

That's the same Charisma as a regular Mummy.

Just a question - Creatures added to D&D Beyond are accessible to everyone? i.e. so everyone can just add monsters to the system and its open to the public, like shared content.

I think a creature's viewable self-only when first created but you can make it public so everyone can share it.

Don't quote me on that though, since it's Casimir who posts these conversions there not me.

ok crocodile mummy

undead nature - is debatable wheter listed for each I guess. presumption being that each statblock be taken as standalone. sometimes they do state the obvious


Re Giant Crocodile Mummy, was thinking it should have a higher AC than normal crocodile mummy as it hs thicker hide (?) so had it at AC 16.

Surely if that important then WotC would list it for every undead they publish.

I'm fine with AC 16. It conserves the 2 points higher Armour Class relationship between the AC 12 Croc and AC 14 Giant Croc.

Will change the Fasolasuchus Mummy to AC 16 too.
