Bouda 2014
CR 5 fiend
Medium fiend, Neutral Evil
The bouda can pinpoint, by scent, the location of celestials, consecrated places or objects, and creatures wielding divine or celestial power, such as clerics, paladins, or aasimars, within 60 feet of it.
The bouda senses magic within 30 feet of it at will. This trait otherwise works like the detect magic spell but isn’t itself magical.
Actions
The bouda makes one Bite attack and one Mephitic Claw attack.
Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 13 (2d8 + 4) piercing damage plus 10 (3d6) poison damage.
Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 11 (2d6 + 4) slashing damage, and the target must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or become poisoned until the end of its next turn.
The bouda consumes the organs of a corpse within 5 feet of it that is less than 7 days old. It gains temporary hp equal to twice the dead creature's CR for 1 hour. The bouda can't use Ravenous Gorge on a corpse if it or another bouda has already use Ravenous Gorge on the corpse.
Bonus Actions
The bouda transforms into a human, a hyena, or back into its true form, which is a hyena-human hybrid. Its statistics, other than its speed, are the same in each form. Any equipment it is wearing or carrying isn't transformed. It reverts to its true form if it dies, then crumbles to dust moments later.
The bouda secretes a disgusting whitish-yellow substance with the viscosity of tar and smears the substance on an object, unoccupied space, or creature within 5 feet of it. An unwilling creature must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw to avoid the smear. Each creature, other than a bouda or hyena, that starts its turn within 30 feet of the smeared target must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned for 1 minute. If a creature's saving throw is successful or the effect ends for it, the creature is immune to that source of Defiling Smear for the next 24 hours. The stench of a smear remains potent for 7 days or until removed by the greater restoration spell or similar magic.
