Abilities & Attacks

Deep Breath. A berberoka can hold their breath for 2 hours Fear of Crabs (emotion, fear, mental). If a berberoka sees a crab or crab-like creature, the berberoka must attempt a DC 33 Will save. They then become immune to the sight of that creature for 10 minutes. Critical Success The berberoka is unaffected. Success The berberoka becomes Frightened 2. Failure The berberoka gains the Fleeing condition for 1 round and is Frightened 4. Reactive Strike (reaction). Trigger A creature within the monster's reach uses a manipulate action or a move action, makes a ranged attack, or leaves a square during a move action it's using. Effect The monster attempts a melee Strike against the triggering creature. If the attack is a critical hit and the trigger was a manipulate action, the monster disrupts that action. This Strike doesn't count toward the monster's multiple attack penalty, and its multiple attack penalty doesn't apply to this Strike. Consume Lake (manipulate). The berberoka drinks a prolific amount from an adjacent water source. If the water source is equal to or greater in volume than themself, the berberoka consumes up to 1,500 gallons of water per minute and becomes waterlogged. They can release water at the same rate. While waterlogged, the berberoka can use Spray Water, their size grows to Gargantuan, and their Speed is reduced to 15 feet. Greater Constrict (1 action). 2d12+12 bludgeoning, DC 33 basic Fortitude save. The monster deals the listed amount of damage to any number of creatures Grabbed or Restrained by it. Each of those creatures can attempt a basic Fortitude save with the listed DC. A creature that fails this save falls Unconscious, and a creature that succeeds is then temporarily immune to falling unconscious from Greater Constrict for 1 minute. Spray Water (2 actions). Requirements The berberoka is waterlogged. Effect The berberoka sprays a blast of water in a 60-foot line. All creatures in the line take 6d8 bludgeoning damage (DC 35 basic Reflex save). On a failed save, a creature is knocked Prone and pushed back 5 feet (10 feet on a critically failed save). Grab (1 action). Requirements The monster's last action was a successful Strike that lists Grab in its damage entry, or the monster has a creature Grabbed or Restrained. Effect If used after a Strike, the monster attempts to Grapple the creature using the body part it attacked with. This attempt neither applies nor counts toward the creature's multiple attack penalty. The monster can instead use Grab and choose one creature it's grabbing or restraining with an appendage that has Grab to automatically extend that condition to the end of the monster's next turn.
