Any creatures or items that touch it, except for items made of stone, become stuck to the adherer. The adherer automatically grapples and restrains any creature it hits with its slam attack. It can grapple up to two opponents at one time. Gtrappling does not reduce the adherer\xe2\x80\x99s number of attacks. Creatures  grappled  this way can break free with a successful DC 15  Str  check. \n'b' A weapon that strikes an adherer is stuck to the creature unless the wielder succeeds on a DC 12 Dex saving throw. Pulling a stuck weapon free requires a successful DC 12  Str  check. \n'b' Boiling water thrown on the adherer deals 1d6 points of damage to it and to any creature  grappled  by the adherer. It also grants advantage on Dex saving throws and  Str  checks to free a weapon or to escape from the adherer\xe2\x80\x99s grapple; this bonus lasts for one round. Inflicting fire damage on the adherer also weakens the adhesive, granting advantage on Dex saving throws and  Str  checks for 1d3 rounds. Universal solvent dissolves the adhesive instantly. An adherer can dissolve its adhesive at will, and the substance breaks down naturally one hour after the creature dies. \n'b'\n'b' Actions \n'b'\n'b'  Multiattack : The adherer slams twice. \n'b'  Slam :  Melee Weapon Attack : +4 to hit (reach 5 ft.; one creature).  Hit : 6 (1d8 + 2) bludgeoning damage, and the target creature is  grappled  and  restrained  (see Adhesive). \n'b'\n'b' About \n'b' This creature appears to be a withered  humanoid  wrapped in decaying bandages. Upon close inspection, what appeared to be bandages are actually loose folds of the creature\xe2\x80\x99s rotting skin. A sour odor fills the air around the creature. \n'b' Adherers are strange creatures found in Forests and extensive cavern networks. They stand 6 feet tall, weigh about 200 pounds, and closely resemble mummies. The difference is obvious on close inspection, but from more than 10 feet away, a successful DC 20  Int  (Nature) check is needed to discern the difference. They are not in fact related to mummies, nor are they undead. Adherers are malign, living creatures that attack just about any other creature they encounter. \n'b' Adherers always attack from ambush. When lying in wait, an adherer covers its body with leaves, sticks, or other natural debris to blend with its surroundings. When prey wanders too close, the adherer springs to the attack. In this type of ambush, adherers always have advantage on their Stealth checks to determine surprise (+5). They are cowardly creatures, however, and if spotted before they can spring their ambush, they flee.'
