Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 15 (3d8+3) slashing damage plus 2 (1d4) acid damage. If the target is a Large or smaller creature, it is grappled (escape DC 13). Until theis grapple ends, the Scorched Ankheg can bite only the grappled creature and has advantage on attack rolls to do so. Blister Bomb (Recharge 6). The Scorched Ankheg spits a ball of mucus at an area up to 30 ft. away. Upon landing, the mucus ball explodes in a sphere with a 10ft radius. Creatures within this sphere must make a DC 13 Dexterity saving throw, taking 15 (5d6) damage on a fail and half as much on a successful save.
