After dealing a Wound or a critical hit to the minor grick, the melee weapon or ammunition used is covered in corrosive fluids. Any non-magical weapon or armor under this effect, and which is not protected by an appropriate forging technique (such as dwarven forging), becomes fragile (see Adventurers, Equipment, Armory: Damaged Weapons and Armor). \n'b'  Stone Camouflage . The minor grick has advantage on  Dexterity  ( Stealth ) checks made to  hide  in rocky terrain. \n'b'\n'b' ACTIONS \n'b'\n'b'  Beak .  Melee Weapon Attack : +3 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature.  Hit : 4 (1d6 + 1) piercing damage. \n'b'\n'b' REACTIONS \n'b'\n'b'  Opportunistic Escape . When an  attack  misses the minor grick, it can move up to its speed without provoking opportunity attacks. \n'b'\n'b' ABOUT \n'b' When under stress, gricks emit a chemical substance that spreads throughout their bloodstream and rises in the air when they bleed. The odorous substance serves as an olfactory alarm, which is transmitted little by little to the cells of the Cankerous nest and the creatures in them. To prevent the alarm from being raised, one must circumvent this particularity. For example: \n'b' Killing the grick without spilling a drop of blood.\xc2\xa0Taking the grick by surprise and killing it in one blow, so that it doesn\xe2\x80\x99t see death coming.\xc2\xa0Wounding it and killing it where the air currents won\xe2\x80\x99t carry the smell to other gricks.\xc2\xa0A grick is a serpentine and creeping creature whose face is the unnatural union between a sharp beak and tentacles, the grick is both discreet and versatile. It functions as a worker, a collector, a scout, and a nurse. This ravager is the first type that a Cankerous nest can produce, making it one of the basic units in ravager troops. \n'b' Gricks can regurgitate a substance sometimes called \xe2\x80\x9cregurgrick.\xe2\x80\x9d It can be used as a building material with a wide variety of applications. When fresh, the regurgrick is slimy, soft and malleable. After drying, it hardens, becoming rigid and delicate like gristle. Here are some applications: \n'b'\n'b'  Secondary Alarm System . The grick generates thin threads of regurgrick, stretching them between the walls of passageways that enemies might take. The area is regularly patrolled: if threads are broken, the grick knows that a creature has entered. This method of alarm is used during the early days of a Cankerous nest, when it cannot yet form carnemones in great numbers. \n'b'  Mimicry . Seen from a distance, grick threads can be mistaken for spider webs. The wetnurse gricks of a young beating growth may try to disguise the surroundings of their lair as a giant spider\xe2\x80\x99s nest to deter curious creatures from approaching. \n'b'  Mortar . Combined with stones or other materials, the substance can also be used as mortar to build protective walls. \n'b'  Concealed trap . Several thin layers of the substance covered with rock dust can be used to place a pit trap (simple, holding, etc.).'
