  • Each tentacle may be attacked separately, they each have an AC of 22 and 50 HP.
    • However, while they can be targeted separately for attacks, they cannot be affected separately by area of effect spells, abilities, or other features. Those effects are instead transferred to the main Kraken (which is affected only once).
  • A tentacle that drops to 0 HP dies.
  • When a tentacle dies, the Kraken loses one of its legendary actions permanently, or until some high form of magic restores it.
  • If the Kraken has been reduced to 0 legendary actions, then it may only make attacks with tentacles that remain when it attacks.
• Epic Resistance.
  • When the Kraken fails a Saving Throw, it may choose to succeed instead.
  • When it does so, one tentacle of the Kraken’s choice falls to 0 HP and dies.
  • If its mythic trait is active, the Kraken may sacrifice a mythic tentacle this way.
• Epic Fortitude.
  • When the Kraken takes damage that would reduce it to 0 HP, it interposes a tentacle to avoid the damage.
  • The tentacle takes the damage instead of the Kraken.

    • While swallowed, the Creature is Blinded and Restrained, it has total cover against attacks and other effects outside the Kraken, and it takes 42 (12d6) Acid Damage at the start of each of the Kraken’s turns.
  • If the Kraken takes 50 damage or more on a single turn from a Creature inside it, the Kraken must succeed on a DC 25 Constitution Saving Throw at the end of that turn or regurgitate all swallowed Creatures, which fall Prone in a space within 10 feet of the Kraken.
  • If the Kraken dies, a swallowed Creature is no longer Restrained by it and can escape from the corpse using 15 feet of movement, exiting Prone.

• The Kraken can take 8 legendary actions, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary option can be used at a time and only at the end of another Creature’s turn. The Kraken regains spent legendary actions at the start of its turn.
• Tentacle Attack or Fling (Costs 1 action).
  • The Kraken makes one tentacle attack or uses its Fling.
  • The Kraken may only take this action with a tentacle that hasn’t acted since the start of the Kraken’s last turn.
• Lightning Strike (Costs 3 actions).
• Ink Cloud (Costs 3 actions).
  • While underwater, the Kraken expels an ink cloud in a 60-foot radius.
  • The cloud spreads around corners, and that area is heavily obscured to Creatures other than the Kraken.
  • Each Creature other than the Kraken that ends its turn there must succeed on a DC 23 Constitution Saving Throw, taking 16 (3d10) Poison Damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
  • A strong current disperses the cloud, which otherwise disappears at the end of the Kraken’s next turn.
