Death Burst. When the mephit dies, it explodes in a burst of sticky mud. Each Medium or smaller creature within 5 feet of it must succeed on a DC 11 Dexterity saving throw or be restrained until the end of the creature's next turn.

False Appearance. While the mephit remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from an ordinary mound of mud.

Actions

Mud Breath (Recharge). The mephit belches viscid mud onto one creature within 5 feet of it.

A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
