The engulfer can breathe air and water. \n'b'  Engulf . The underside of an engulfer\xe2\x80\x99s ray-like wings are covered in thousands of cilia-like projections designed to hold captured prey. An engulfer may secure a creature  grappled  by its tentacles under its wings instead of attacking with that tentacle. The  grappled  creature may use its  reaction  to attempt to escape during the transfer. Otherwise, the creature retains the  grappled  condition and the escape DC increases to 18. An engulfer may hold up to 2 Large creatures, 4 Medium creatures, or 8 Small creatures in its wings. \n'b'  Mucous Cloud . While underwater, the engulfer is surrounded by transformative mucus. A creature that touches the engulfer or that hits it with a  melee attack  while within 5 feet of it must make a DC 16  Constitution  saving throw. On a failure, the creature is diseased for 1d4 hours. The diseased creature can breathe only underwater. \n'b'\n'b' ABOUT \n'b' Even though many of the aboleth\xe2\x80\x99s creations can enslave small numbers of creatures to their will, engulfers are tasked with the capture of larger volumes of slaves to be returned to their masters\xe2\x80\x99 lairs. \n'b' Pods of engulfers lurk behind the main body of an aboleth army, capturing surviving sentient creatures until they can be properly conditioned. \n'b' Engulfer aboleth are responsible for the \xe2\x80\x9crecruitment\xe2\x80\x9d and delivery of slaves to and from aboleth cities. They enjoy their high status as providers, and tend to be vain. Many a sailor far out to sea has reported seeing massive \xe2\x80\x9crays\xe2\x80\x9d gliding under their ships, never knowing they were being sized up by an engulfer aboleth. \n'b' Engulfer aboleth rarely travel alone, preferring to venture forth with a contingent of slaves and tentacle crabs. They are careful not to lose captured victims when attempting to restrain newly grabbed ones, going into a fussy tantrum if a prospective victim escapes. While they fully understand the benefits of working with others of their kind, they always compete for the best captures. This aboleth has four insect-like limbs sprouting from its back. The limbs are armored, and have an unnatural number of joints. They end in dexterous four-fingered hands.'
