ACTIONS

Multiattack. The tanarukk makes three weapon attacks, at least one of which must be a bite attack.

Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 14 (2d8 + 5) piercing damage.

Greatsword. Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 15 (3d6 + 5) slashing damage.

Leadership (Recharges after a Short or Long Rest). For 1 minute, the tanarukk can utter a special command or warning whenever a nonhostile creature that it can see within 30 feet of it makes an attack roll or a saving throw. The creature can add a d4 to its roll, provided it can hear and understand the tanarukk. A creature can benefit from only one Leadership die at a time. This effect ends if the tanarukk is incapacitated.

REACTIONS

Parry. The tanarukk adds 3 to its AC against one melee attack that would hit it. To do so, the tanarukk must see the attacker and be wielding a melee weapon.

Unbridled Fury. In response to being hit by a melee attack, the tanarukk can make one melee weapon attack with advantage against the attacker.
