Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 10 ft., one creature. Hit: 11 (2d6 + 4) slashing damage plus plus 7 (2d6) poison damage.

Any creature can take an action to stanch the wound with a successful DC 12  Wisdom  (Medicine) check. The wound also closes if the target receives magical healing. \n'b'  Invisible Passage . The acronical magically turns invisible until it attacks, or until it\xe2\x80\x99s concentration ends (as if concentrating on a spell). While invisible, it leaves no physical evidence of passage, so it can be tracked only by magic. Any equipment it wears or carries is invisible also. \n'b'  About \n'b' The acronical is a large insectile predator that strides on six armored legs. Eight feet tall at the shoulder, it has a dark maroon exoskeleton and serrated black hooks at the end of both arms. It reeks of vomit. \n'b' Created by priests many centuries ago, this nocturnal creature stalks and kills adulterers. It hunts married people who stray from their spouses, and those who tempt or dally with married people. \n'b' Acronicals are drawn to the scent of such persons, and can detect it from miles away. The beasts crawl across walls and ceilings, silent and careful, closing in on their victims. They stalk everyone who was peripherally involved in the duplicity, neighbors who turn a blind eye, innkeepers who knew exactly what was going on, and so forth. Those involved are tracked down, attacked while alone, hamstrung, and devoured by the acronicals while still alive.'
