Hodag 2014
CR 3 beast
Large beast, unaligned
If the hodag moves at least 10 feet straight toward a target and then hits it with a horn attack on the same turn, the target takes an extra 5 (2d4) piercing damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 14 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone.
The hodag’s teeth, claws, horns, and tail spikes are extra sharp. These weapon attacks score a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20.
The hodag has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on hearing or smell.

A creature that fails the saving throw by 5 or more is also knocked prone.
