A creature that starts its turn in the swarm\xe2\x80\x99s space takes 5 (1d10) thunder damage. \n'b'  Swarm . The swarm can occupy another creature\xe2\x80\x99s space and vice versa, and the swarm can move through any opening large enough for a Tiny creature. The swarm can\xe2\x80\x99t regain  hit points  or gain  temporary hit points . \n'b'\n'b' ACTIONS \n'b'\n'b'  Bite .  Melee Weapon Attack : +3 to hit, reach 0 ft., one target in the swarm\xe2\x80\x99s space.  Hit : 14 (4d6) piercing damage, or 7 (2d6) piercing damage if the swarm has half of its  hit points  or fewer. The golden beetle places its small mandible against its oversized mandible then snaps them quickly apart, creating a deafening clacking. \n'b'\n'b' ABOUT \n'b' Clacker beetles are aggressive subterranean scavengers. Individually they aren\xe2\x80\x99t much of a threat, but they\xe2\x80\x99re rarely encountered individually. Worker clacker beetles and immature beetles form swarms, and soldiers always scavenge in groups. \n'b'  Clacking Mandibles . The beetles get their name from the deadly clacking sound their mandibles produce. They can use their mandibles to create a clacking noise with the force of a sledgehammer. Clacker beetles use this attack to stun or kill potential prey. When they\xe2\x80\x99re encountered in large groups, the rapid-fire clacking of their mandibles can quickly bring down creatures as large as trolls and ogres. \n'b'  Cavern Nests . Clacker beetles nest by chewing holes into rock and rubble. A small cavern riddled with clacker beetle tunnels can house hundreds or thousands of the creatures. They\xe2\x80\x99re fond of shiny objects, much as crows and pack rats are. When clacker beetles infest ancient tombs or other sites where valuables are stored, they\xe2\x80\x99ve been known to snatch nearly all the gold, silver, and jewels and drag it to their nesting site.'
