Drakeshard Beast - AI-generated fantasy Monster

Drakeshard Beast

The eclipse cult calls these creatures the Red Jaws of Ascension. They believe the beasts can consume enough ley energy to tear open a permanent passage for the eclipsed star. In truth, each beast is dying from the inside, and its final transformation may trigger a violent magical backlash.

Leyline Regeneration. At the start of its turn, the beast regains 8 hit points if it is within 20 feet of an active leyline node and has at least 1 hit point. If it took radiant damage since the end of its last turn, this trait does not function at the start of its next turn.
Crimson Surge. Once per short or long rest, when the beast is reduced to 45 hit points or fewer, it can release stored ley energy as a bonus action. Until the end of its next turn, its movement does not provoke opportunity attacks, its melee attacks deal an extra 4 () force damage, and creatures that start their turn within 5 feet of it take 4 () fire damage.
Drakeshard Stability. The beast's melee attacks are magical. It has advantage on saving throws against being knocked prone while standing on solid stone or within 20 feet of an active leyline node.
Predatory Momentum. The beast can move through the space of a creature that is prone, but it cannot end its movement there. The first time it moves through such a space on a turn, that creature takes 3 () bludgeoning damage.
Multiattack. The beast makes one Bite attack, one Claw attack, and one Tail Swipe attack.
Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 11 () piercing damage plus 3 () force damage.
Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 10 () slashing damage. If the target is Large or smaller, it must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be pushed up to 10 feet.
Tail Swipe. Melee Weapon Attack: to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 13 () bludgeoning damage. If the target is Large or smaller, it must succeed on a Strength saving throw or fall prone.
Crystal Reprisal. When the beast is hit by a melee attack from a creature within 5 feet, it can force that creature to make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the attacker takes 4 () piercing damage from erupting crystal splinters.
