The spurred water skate can move across the surface of water as if it were harmless, solid ground. This trait works like the  water walk  spell. \n'b'\n'b' ACTIONS \n'b'\n'b'  Stabbing Forelimbs .  Melee Weapon Attack : +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature.  Hit : 10 (2d6 + 3) piercing damage.

Until this grapple ends, the target is  restrained . If the target is in a liquid, the skate can hold it under the surface, and the target risks suffocating. \n'b'\n'b' ABOUT \n'b' The spurred water skate is a diurnal carnivore. It has weak mandibles, but the adaptations enabling it to move on the water make it a powerful hunter. The distribution of the spurred water skate\xe2\x80\x99s weight, along with leg bristles that create and hold air bubbles at the surface, allow it to stand on top of even moderately choppy water and move without sinking. The insect\xe2\x80\x99s sharp forelimbs are powerful enough to kill weaker prey outright, but it prefers to use its limbs to grasp targets and submerge them until they drown. \n'b' Because spurred water skates move effortlessly across wet surfaces, they are desirable mounts in the swamps and marshes they inhabit.
