<h3>Special Abilities</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Flyby:</strong> The nightgaunt doesn't provoke an opportunity attack when it flies out of an enemy's reach.</li>
<li><strong>Pack Tactics:</strong> The nightgaunt has advantage on attack rolls against a creature if at least one of the nightgaunt's allies is within 5 feet of the creature and the ally isn't incapacitated.</li>

<h3>Actions</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Multiattack:</strong> The nightgaunt can use its Baneful Presence. It then makes three attacks: two with its clutching claws and one with its barbed tail. If the nightgaunt is grappling a creature, it can use its barbed tail one additional time.</li>
<li><strong>Clutching Claws:</strong> Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 13 (2d8 + 4) slashing damage, and the target is grappled (escape DC 16) if it is a Medium or smaller creature. Until this grapple ends, the target is restrained. The nightgaunt has two claws, each of which can grapple only one target. While using a claw to grapple, the nightgaunt can't use that claw to attack.</li>
<li><strong>Barbed Tail:</strong> Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d8 + 4) piercing damage plus 10 (3d6) poison damage.</li>
<li><strong>Baneful Presence:</strong> Each creature of the nightgaunt's choice that is within 30 feet of the nightgaunt and aware of it must succeed on a DC 16 Wisdom saving throw or have disadvantage on all attack rolls and saving throws for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. If a creature's saving throw is successful or the effect ends for it, the creature is immune to the nightgaunt's Baneful Presence for the next 24 hours.</li>
