Traits

Aversion to Fire

If the swarm takes fire damage, it has disadvantage on attack rolls and ability checks until the end of its next turn.

Incessant Gibberish

Any non-gibberling that is within 60 feet of the swarm and doesn't have the deafened condition has disadvantage on Constitution saving throws to maintain concentration on spells and similar effects.

Swarm

The swarm can occupy another creature's space and vice versa, and the swarm can move through any opening large enough to accommodate a Small gibberling. The swarm can't regain hit points or gain temporary hit points.

Actions

Multiattack

The swarm makes two Gnashing Teeth attacks.

Gnashing Teeth

Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 0 ft., one target in the swarm's space. Hit: 14 (4d4 + 4) piercing damage, or 9 (2d4 + 4) piercing damage if the swarm has half of its hit points or fewer.
