FeaturesEvasion. If the swarm needs to make a Dexterity saving throw that a success would result in half damage, it takes no damage on a successful save and only half damage of a failed save. ActionsMultiattack. The swarm can make 1 attack with beak and claws against a target in its square and 4 attacks with its force darts against up to 4 creatures in range. If the swarm is below half hit points, it makes 2 attacks with its force darts. Against constructs or undead this attack has a chance to miss; the attack roll is at +7 to hit with disadvantage, with a range of only 60 ft. |
Description
The tritail (\ ˈtrī-tāl \) is a humming-bird size bird. It appears as a tiny yellow swallow with a tri-forked tail. When they swarm, it is to protect their territory against a perceived threat.
Their most dangerous attack is a projection of their life-force (ki), manifesting as a force dart (similar to a single magic missile). Somewhat dangerous from a single tritail, but a swarm of them using this ability can be devastating.
