Petrifying Tendrils

Any creature that starts its turn in the death embrace's space must make a DC 16 Constitution saving throw. On a failed saving throw, the creature is restrained. A creature restrained in this way must repeat the saving throw at the end of its next turn, becoming petrified on a failed saving throw or ending the effect on a successful one. The petrified condition lasts until the effect is ended by a greater restoration spell or similar magic.

Reel

At the start of each of its turns, the death embrace can pull each creature it is grappling up to 20 feet toward it (no action required).

Water Breathing

The death embrace can breathe only underwater.

description

Drifting through the dark waters of the Netherdeep, the death embrace is an ominous sight. Beneath its bell hangs a lacy, tendrilous mass that thrums with magic, surrounded by six 60-foot-long, barbed tentacles. The death embrace uses these tentacles to grasp and petrify its prey. Despite its foreboding name, the death embrace is not an overly aggressive creature. It prefers to bide its time, using creatures it has caught in its tentacles as shields to absorb attacks.
