Its jagged black scales, long prehensile tongue, and venomous breath make it a deadly predator. While it lacks intelligence, it is a cunning ambush hunter, using its camouflage to strike unwary prey. The toxic aura it emanates makes it a persistent threat to those foolish enough to venture too close.","suggested_environments":"","armor_class":"16 (Natural Armor)","hit_points":"95 (10d10 + 40) [roll:10d10+40]","strength":"19","dexterity":"10","constitution":"18","intelligence":"10","wisdom":"12","charisma":"6","base_movement_units":"","base_movement_in_ft":"30","fly_movement_in_ft":"","burrow_movement_in_ft":"","swim_movement_in_ft":"30","climb_movement_in_ft":"","senses":"Darkvision 60 ft., Passive Perception 14","skills":"Perception +4, Stealth +3 ","saving_throws":"Strength +7, Constitution +7 ","damage_vulnerabilities":"","damage_resistances":"","damage_immunities":"Poison","condition_immunities":"Poisoned","spellcasting":"","cast_at_will":"","cast_one_per_day":"","cast_twice_per_day":"","cast_thrice_per_day":"","special_abilities":"[b]Amphibious[\/b].
