The plaguecat has advantage on attack rolls against any creature it has surprised. \n'b'  Infectious . When the plaguecat deals damage, it can use a bonus action to have the target make a DC 13  Constitution  saving throw. On a failure the target contracts a disease. Until the disease is cured, the target can\xe2\x80\x99t regain  hit points  except by magical means, and the target\xe2\x80\x99s hit point maximum decreases by 4 (1d8) every 24 hours. If the target\xe2\x80\x99s hit point maximum drops to 0 as a result of this disease, the target dies. \n'b'  Pack Tactics . The plaguecat has advantage on an attack roll against a creature if at least one of the plaguecat\xe2\x80\x99s allies is within 5 feet of the creature and the ally isn\xe2\x80\x99t incapacitated. \n'b'  Actions \n'b'   Multiattack . The plaguecat makes one  attack  with its claws and one  attack  with its bite. \n'b'  Bite .  Melee Weapon Attack : +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target.  Hit : 7 (1d6 + 4) piercing damage. \n'b'  Claw .  Melee Weapon Attack : +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target.  Hit : 9 (2d4 + 4) slashing damage. \n'b'  Tactics \n'b' Plaguecats will strike quickly, preferring a night-time raid where they can use their night-vision and pack tactics to gain the upper hand. They retreat as soon as they\xe2\x80\x99ve forced a majority of the group to make saving throws and only attack again if their victims don\xe2\x80\x99t die within the week. \n'b' Description \n'b'  Carrion Eaters . Plaguecats are carrion eaters, but they\xe2\x80\x99re more proactive than most. They will attack an animal, only to withdraw quickly once they\xe2\x80\x99ve delivered a deep wound. They know it\xe2\x80\x99s likely that the prey will become sick and die within a matter of days and they will stalk the animal until it drops dead. They then drag it up into a tree to ripen for a day or two, before judging it fit to eat. \n'b'  Pack Attack . Plaguecats hunt in small packs, led by an older female. She signals the attack with a roar, then the youngest members of the pack strike while the older members keep potential rescuers at bay. Once the victim is sufficiently injured, the pack retreats to a safe distance and awaits the inevitable.'
